Answer:

The amount of depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018, by;  

(a) the straight-line method are; $71,250, $71,250, $71,250 and $71,250 for years ended December 31, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 respectively.

(b) the units-of-output method are; $102,600, $91,200,$62,700 and $28,500 for years ended December 31, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 respectively.

(c) the double-declining-balance method are; $160,000, $80,000,$40,000 and $5,000 for years ended December 31, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 respectively.

TOTAL depreciation expense for the four years by each method are;

a) the straight-line method is $285,000

(b) the units-of-output method is $285,000

(c) the double-declining-balance is $285,000

Explanation:

i. In applying the striaght-line method of depreciation, the residual value of $ 35,000 is deducted from the cost of the equipment to get $285,000. Then $285,000 is divided by the number of useful life of 4 years. This will yield to a uniform depreciation expenses of $71,250, $71,250, $71,250 and $71,250 for years ended December 31, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 respectively.

ii. Using units-of-output method, the rate par hour is first determined by $285,000/20,000=$14.25/1 hr.

2015 = $14.25X7,200 hrs=$102,600

2016 = $14.25X6,400 hrs=$91,200

2017 = $14.25X4,400 hrs=$62,700

2018 = $14.25X2000 hrs=$28,500

ii. Applying double-declining-balance method requires a more careful approach. first we have to calculate the depreciation rate. (1/4 X 100 =25%). then double the rate (25%X2=50%).

2015 = $320,000 X 50% =$160,000

2016 = $160,000 X 50%= $80,000

2017 = $80,000 X 50%=$40,000

2018 = $40,000 - $35,000= $5,000. Where $35,000 is the residual value in year 4.

EasyOpen Inc. gained a patent for an electronic corkscrew. Soon the company made a huge profit on this device. Recently, however
n200080 [17]

Answer:

<em>2. EasyOpen's patent expired after 20 years</em>

Explanation:

<em>Patent rights last for about a limited period of time, as well as the right to file a lawsuit on other sides for infringement of the patent is centered on that time. </em>

Inventors and other patent proprietors may therefore choose to measure and evaluate their patent's expiry date.

It will mostly rely heavily on the date of filing of your patent application, and also the sort of patent they obtained.

Patents are defined as utility patents, patents on designs or patents on plants.

Patent protection for utility patents, which are the most common type of patent, and which EasyOpen Inc is part of, lasts 20 years after the patent application's filing date.
