Answer:

The patent should be reported at $302,400 on the December 31, 2020, balance sheet.

Explanation:

Remaining useful life in month of patent on January 1, 2020 = 8 * 12 = 96 months

Remaining useful life in month of patent on December 1, 2020 = 96 - 11 = 85 months

Amortization of book value of patent in 2020 = (Patent Book value / Remaining useful life in month of patent on January 1, 2020) * 12  = ($201,600 / 96) * 12 = $25,200

Amortization of legal cost in 2020 = (Legal cost / Remaining useful life in month of patent on December 1,, 2020) * 1  = ($127,500 / 85) * 1 = $1,500

Carrying amount of patent = Patent Book value + Legal cost = $201,600 + $127,500 = $329,100

Patent book value on December 31, 2020 = Carrying amount of patent - Amortization of book value of patent in 2020 - Amortization of legal cost in 2020 = $329,100 - $25,200 - $1,500 = $302,400

Therefore, the patent should be reported at $302,400 on the December 31, 2020, balance sheet.

Your unemployed friend Seymour sent you a test of his electronic cover letter. You see that he is struggling with the appropriat
Ugo [173]

tell him to put less information with more details.

Instead of putting large amounts of small information in a cover letter, he should be putting small amounts of information with smaller details, a cover letter is explaining you and your backround better to the employers to see if you're what they want, and to get to know your backround better. If Seymour puts his little important details of information he will have a better chance at impressing the employers.
