<span>If amortisation expenses are spread over 18 years rather than 6 years, amortisation expenses will be lower than they should be. This will cause an increase in net income. In addition, because less of the cost has been expensed, the remaining value of the patent will be too high, thus overstating assets.</span>

Answer:

Explanation:

Using future annuity formula

Fv = Pmt ( (1+r)ⁿ -1 )/ r

\frac{FVr}{Pmt}  + 1 = (1+r)ⁿ

In ( \frac{FVr}{Pmt} + 1) = n In ( 1+r)

n =  In ( \frac{FVr}{Pmt} + 1)  / In ( 1 + r)

FV, future value = $10,000, Pmt, periodic payment per year = $1,100, r rate = 11.82% = 0.1182 and n =  number of years

n = 0.7297 / 0.11172 = 6.53 years approx 7 years

the last year payment will actually be less than $1,100
