Complete Question:
Pribuss Engineering prepares its financial statements according to International Financial Reporting Standards. During 2018, the company incurred the following costs related to a new product design:
Research for New Design $2.4M
DVMPT of New Product $1.3M
Patent Filing Fees $52K
The development costs were incurred after technological and commercial feasibility was established and after the future economic benefits were deemed probable. The project was successfully completed and the new product was patented before the end of the 2018 fiscal year. What amount should Pribuss expense in its 2018 income statement related to the above expenditures?
Answer:
The Research expenses of $2.4M that are written as expense in the Income statement and the Development costs of $1.3M and patent legal fees of $53k are capitalized.
Explanation:
The reason is that the International Standard IAS 38 Intangible Assets says that the expenditure incurred on the research that hasn't entered development phase must be written as expense in the year and the expenditure incurred on the development phase of the research outcomes must be capitalized to the extent it is ready for use. In this case $1.3M is clearly a development cost and patent legal fees of $53k is the expenditure that will prepare the asset and making it ready for use, so it must also be capitalized.

Answer:
Explanation:
The adjusting entries are shown below:
a. Unearned Fees A/c Dr $82,760
To Fees Earned A/c $82,760
(Being unearned fees are adjusted)
For recording the transactions we debited the unearned fees account and credited the fees earned account
b. Accounts Receivable A/c Dr $32,640
To Fees Earned A/c $32,640
(Being accrued fees recorded)
As the earned fees do not bill so we debited the account receivable account and credited the fees earned account
Answer:
d. Fall to $1.47
Explanation:
currently you will need $1,500 to purchase £1,000 and invest in British bonds. After 65 months you will have £1,040, which you should be able to convert into $1,544.40. If you invested in US bonds, you would have $1,530, so this arbitrage will yield $14.40.
But if instead the British pound fell to $1.47, then your profit would only be $28.80, less than if you invested in US bonds. You again would have £1,040 in 6 months, but that would only be equal to $1,528.80.
