Answer:
$206,667
Explanation:
Calculation for What total amount of amortization expense should have been recorded on the intangible asset by December 31, 2020
Using this formula
Total Amortization expense=Cost/useful life*Number of months
Let plug in the formula
Total Amortization expense=$1,162,500/180*32
Total Amortization expense=$206,667
Note that 15 years*12months will give us 180 months which is the useful life while May 1, 2018 - December 31, 2020) will give us 32 months
Therefore the total amount of amortization expense should have been recorded on the intangible asset by December 31, 2020 will be $206,667
