Answer:

Balance sheet extract:

Intangible assets:

Copyright 1      $0

Copyright 2      $48,000

Explanation:

The points to note in the question are enumerated as follows:

An internally generated intangible asset cannot  be capitalized.By capitalization ,I mean its costs is treated as intangible asset to be amortized over its useful life.As a result,the $16,000 incurred on the internally generated intangible asset,specifically,the first copyright should be treated as expense when  incurred.

However,the second copyright that was bought from University Press can be treated as asset but cannot be amortized since it has indefinite life,but would be tested for impairment on a yearly basis,with impairment losses charged to profit or loss account.

B) Liability of foreignness

Explanation:

Liability of foreignness refers to the extra costs that a firm might incurr when operating in a foreign country.

This can results from a lack of knowledge of the host country's laws, regulations, culture, customs, etc.

For example, if an American company starts operations in for example, France, it will have to hire legal advisors, because the French legal system not only is different from Common Law in principle, but also because it is very complicated, with thousands of regulations. This represents a loss of competitiveness, and a handicap when competing against French companies.
