A bonded object can be used once per day to cast any one spell that the wizard has in his spellbook and is capable of casting, even if the spell is not prepared.

I'm unsure if the spell cast using your bonded object counts toward your available spell slots?
The PRD states that while the spell doesn't need to be prepared, it is treated like any other spell cast by the wizard. This seems to suggest that it counts as one of your spells of the day as it "is treated like any other spell cast".
Is this correct or is it an additional spell?

while a bonded object is an item a wizard can use to cast additional spells or to serve as a magical item.
This suggests that the bonded object gives "additional spells", but I'm not sure why it says "spells" instead of "spell" (or is this an extension of one of the additional core rulebooks?).
And lastly, why does it say "or to serve as a magical item". Why can't it "cast additional spells and to serve as a magical item".
Very basic questions but would welcome any help. Cheers.
