Hildegard, an intelligent and charming Holstein cow, grazes in a very large, mostly barren pasture with a few patches of lush gr
ass. When she finds a new grassy area, the amount of grass she gets from it is equal to the square root of the number of hours, h, that she spends grazing there. Finding a new patch of grass on which to graze takes her 1 hour. Since Hildegard does not have pockets, the currency in which her costs are measured is time. (a) What is the total cost to Hildegard of finding a new patch of grass and getting y units of grass from it? (b) Find an expression for her marginal and her average costs per patch of grass as a function of the amount of grass she gets from each patch. (c) How much time would she spend in each patch if she wanted to maximize her food intake? (Hint: Minimize the average cost per unit of grass eaten.)

Explanation:
The necessary adjusting entries at December 31 to record amortization required by the events above has been prepared.
It should also be noted that due to the goodwill having an indefinite life, no entry was made to amortize the goodwill.
It should be noted that the amortization expense was gotten as:
Annual amortization = $75,000/5
= $15,000
2015 amortization= $15,000 × 8/12months
= $15,000 × 2/3
= $30,000/3
= $10,000
Kindly check the attached file forthe adjusting entries
