a. Particulars                                  Amount  

Patent cost                                     $400,000  

Less: Amortization for 3 years      <u>$150,000 </u> ($400,000*3/8)

Book value at the end of year 3  $250,000

Addition during Year 4                  <u>$20,000  </u>

Total book value                            <u>$270,000</u>

Expenses, such as depreciation on buildings are also known as variable expenses. t or f?
SSSSS [86.1K]

The statement “Expenses, such as depreciation on buildings are also known as variable expenses.”, is false, due to the fact that depreciation is a fixed cost since throughout its useful life as an asset, it reoccurs in the same amount per period, and thus, depreciation cannot be considered a variable cost. Nevertheless, as with all things, there is an exception. The depreciation will be sustained in a pattern that is more consistent with a variable expense, only if a business recruits a usage-based depreciation methodology.

To add, the corporate expense that alters with the company’s production output is called the variable cost.
