For each of the following unrelated situations, calculate the annual amortization expense and prepare a journal entry to record

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

(a) Debit Amortization expense - Patents for $43,750; and Credit Patents for $43,750.

(b) Debit Amortization expense - Patents for $5,230; and Credit Patents for $5,230.

(c) Debit Amortization expense - Franchise for $14,000; and Credit Franchises for $14,000.

Explanation:

(a) A patent with a 10-year remaining legal life was purchased for $350,000. The patent will be commercially exploitable for another eight years.

Annual amortization expenses = Purchase cost of the patent / Number of commercially exploitable years = $350,000 / 8 = $43,750

Therefore, the journal entries will look as follows:

General Journal

Description Debit ($) Credit ($)

Amortization expense - Patents 43,750

Patents 43,750

(To record patent amortization.)

(b) A patent was acquired on a device designed by a production worker. Although the cost of the patent to date consisted of $52,300 in legal fees for handling the patent application, the patent should be commercially valuable during its entire remaining legal life of 10 years and is currently worth $400,000.

Annual amortization expenses = Legal fees / Remaining legal life = $52,300 / 10 = $5,230

Therefore, the journal entries will look as follows:

General Journal

Description Debit ($) Credit ($)

Amortization expense - Patents 5,230

Patents 5,230

(To record patent amortization.)

(c) A franchise granting exclusive distribution rights for a new solar water heater within a three-state area for five years was obtained at a cost of $70,000. Satisfactory sales performance over the five years permits renewal of the franchise for another three years (at an additional cost determined at renewal).

Annual amortization expenses = Cost of acquiring the franchise / Number of years acquired = $70,000 / 5 = $14,000

Therefore, the journal entries will look as follows:

General Journal

Description Debit ($) Credit ($)

Amortization expense - franchise 14,000

franchise 14,000

(To record franchise amortization.)

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

B) Subtract them from the bank balance.

Explanation:

When you are adjusting your bank statement you must subtract any outstanding checks and add any deposits in transit.

In this case, the checks that were written at the end of December will probably be cashed during the next months, but the company must adjust their bank balance because they know that the checks will eventually be cashed, sooner or later.
