The compound interest is 8.775%.

interest = p.

p is principal, i is the interest rate, and n is the periods. Inthis case, p is 2 and the interest is .8. (We can divide both sides by a million to make it simpler.) The number of periods is 4.

.8 = (2)(i)(4)

.8 = 8i

i = 10%. (solution)

Compound interest, again, is

interest = p [(1+r)^m - 1]

This time we can't cancel out the p by default. We must divide by 2if we want to avoid multiplying through. After doing so, we add 1to both sides.

1.4 = (1+r)^4

Log both sides.

log(1.4) = 4log(1+r)

log(1.4) / 4 = .0365 = log(1+r)

10^.0365 = 1 + r

1.08775 - 1 = r

r = 8.775%.

adoni [48]

Trademark = $210,000 + $8,500 = $218,500

Licensing Rights = $80,000

2) Computation the amortization expense is  

Patent = $4,000 ÷ 10 = $400

Trademark = $218,500 ÷ 10 = $21,850

Here we assume the indefinite life of 10 years  

Licensing Rights = $80,000 ÷ 5 = $16,000

3)

Income statement:

Amortization expense  $38,250 ($400 + $21,850 + $16,000)

Balance sheet at year end december:

Fixed assets

Intangibles

Patent         $3600 ($4,000 - $400)
