Employment agency, independent investment over 400 euro?

I'm self-employed, still with Hartz IV increase. The information on the back of the approval that larger, unplanned investments should be reported in advance to avoid disadvantages / non-recognition.

My only work tool is defective - a notebook that is over 6 years old. Repairs would be uneconomical, as other components could quickly become defective at this age. I couldn't work while he was repairing.

If I get replacements with a price a little over 400 euro, what are the chances of the investment being recognized in the final EKS facility?

I'm grateful for a professional answer!

You can make an application, you may even get a SUBSIDY for new purchases. You have to apply for this BEFORE.
