Answer:

The entries during 2016 are as follows:

- Intangible asset (R&D)  $156960

                                      Cash  $156960

- Patent   $32400

             Cash  $32400

- Patent amortization expense  $3240

                                                Patent $3240

Explanation:

According to IAS 38 (Intangible assets), research and development costs should only be capitalized (recorded as intangible assets) when all of the following criteria is met.

<em>1- The entity intends to complete the development of research findings.</em>

<em>2- The costs of research and development can be reliably measured.</em>

<em>3- There are adequate resources available for the development and development has technical feasibility.</em>

<em>4- It's probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity.</em>

Given the data in the question, all of the requirements are met under IAS 38 and hence the research and development costs are capitalized (recorded as an intangible asset). Secondly, the patent is also an intangible non-current asset.

The entries during 2016 are as follows:

- Intangible asset (R&D)  $156960

                                      Cash  $156960

- Patent   $32400

             Cash  $32400

- Patent amortization expense  $3240

                                                Patent $3240

Patent amortization is calculated by dividing the cost of patent upon it's useful life (i.e $32400÷10).

malfutka [58]

Answer:

<u>The target cost per iron= $83.25</u>

Explanation:

Profit Required = Required Investment * required rate of return

= $ 3,500,000*15%

= $ 525,000

Sales= 300000*85=$25,500,000.00

Less: profit required=$525,000.00

Cost= Sales- Profit

Cost=24,975,000.00

Per Unit Target Cost = Total Cost / Total Units

= $ 24,975,000/ 300,000

= $ 83.25

Assume for the United States that the opportunity cost of each airplane is 50 cars. Which of these pairs of points could be on t
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: b. (200 airplanes, 12,500 cars) and (150 airplanes, 15,000 cars)

Explanation:

The opportunity cost of an airplane is 50 cars. This means that if the number of planes produced were reduced by 50, the number of cars should increase by:

= 50 * 50

= 2,500 cars.

In option B, the airplanes were 200 and then reduced by 50 to 150. This led to an increase in cars of:

= 15,000 - 12,500

= 2,500 cars

Option B therefore satisfies the constraints and is correct.
