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: 1. A.Both firms will choose the low price.
2. B. Both firms would choose the high price.
Explanation:
1. If the firms cannot cooperate with each other and must choose simultaneously, both firms will choose the low price.
This is because at the low price both of them are at the highest profit they can make when they are not cooperating. For instance, if Firm B chooses Low Price and Firm A chooses High Price, Firm A will make $3 million while Firm be will make $8 million.
If Firm B decides to have a high price then firm A will take the low price and make $8 million in profit while Firm B makes $4 million. If they are not working together, they will both have to take the low price to make the most profit.
2. If the firms could cooperate with each other, both firms would choose the high price.
The is because they will be making more than competing and getting a lower profit. Should they cooperate they will each get $7 million in profit because they will pick the option they can both make the highest profit at. The is better than competing and making only $5 and $6 million respectively.
If you need any clarification do comment. Cheers.
