Explanation:

The journal entry is as follows

Amortization expense Dr $2.5 million

         To Patent $2.5 million

(Being the amortization expense is recorded)

The computation is shown below:

The annual amortization is

= $9 million ÷ 9 years

= $1 million

So, the amortization for four years from 2017 to 2021 is $4 million

Now the unamortized value is

= $9 million - $4 million

= $5 million

And, the remaining life is 2 years (6 years - 4 years)

So, the amortization expense is

= $5 million ÷ 2 years

= $2.5 million

Option (b) for a response. In order to keep the expenditure multiplier from exceeding 1, output must increase while consumption must decrease.

<h3>Spending multiplier: What does it tell you?</h3>

An economic indicator of the impact that changes in government spending and investment have on a nation's Gross Domestic Product is the expenditure multiplier, often known as the fiscal multiplier.

<h3>When the multiplier is negative, what does that mean?</h3>

The negative multiplier effect happens when a spending leak or initial withdrawal from the circular flow has further impacts and a larger final decline in real GDP.

<h3>Why does multiplier exceed 1?</h3>

The rise in the national product indicates a rise in national income. Consumption demand rises as a result, and businesses produce to satisfy it. As a result, the increase in investment is greater than the increase in national income and product. There is a multiplier effect that exceeds one.
