Answer:
A. $35,000
Explanation:
The first $150,000 were invested in research and development of the product itself, not the patent. Thus, this amount should be debited to research and development expenses.
The only expenses directly related to the patent itself are the $20,000 spent on legal fees on January 2, 2017, and the $15,000 for legal fees in a successful defense of the patent on July 31, 2017.
Therefore, the total amount that should be debited to Patents (P) is:
P = $20,000 + $15,000 = $35,000

Answer: Appreciate
Explanation:
When a country increases interest rates, it will lead to an appreciation in currency. This is because there will be more demand for the currency of the country because people will want to take advantage of the higher interest rates and make a gain.
As the demand for the currency increases but the supply stays the same, the value of the currency will appreciate.
With Australia taking up their interest rates, their dollar will appreciate in value.
