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:
Expectancy theory
Explanation:
Expectancy theory states that when an individual is faced with different choices they will be motivated in a certain way in choosing a particular option based on what they expect to be the result of the choice.
So behaviour is affected by perceived result or consequence of a particular choice.
In the given scenario Joyce works hard and puts in many extra hours, and getting a promotion is most important to Joyce.
So because of her expectations that manager must recognise that:
(1) she is putting in hard work and long hours to obtain a promotion,
(2) what motivates Joyce will change over time (if she does not get the promotion), and
(3) he must clearly show Joyce how to attain the desirable reward.
Answer:
- Paul Donut Franchisee : Perfectly Elastic Supply
- P & G Facial Tissues : Elastic Supply
- Papermate Pens : Inelastic Supply
- Bright Ideas Lightbulbs : Perfectly Inelastic Supply
Explanation:
Price Elasticity of Supply is sellers' quantity supplied response to price change. P(Es) = % change in supply / % change in price.
Supply can be classified by Price Elasticity of Supply, as undermentioned :
- Elastic Supply : P(Es) > 1 ; % change in supply > % change in price
- Inelastic Supply : P(Es) < 1 ; % change in supply < % change in price
- Unitary Elastic : P (Es) = 1 ; % change in supply = % change in price
- Perfectly Elastic Supply : P(Es) = ∞ ; Supply responds infinitely to any slight price change & so prices are constant.
- Perfectly Elastic Supply : P (Es) = 0 ; Supply responds negligibly to massive price change & so quantity supplied is constant
- Paul Donut Franchise : Unlimited Supply at constant price, so supply perfectly elastic
- P & G facial tissues : % change in supply i.e 66% > % change in price i.e 10% , so supply is elastic
- Papermate pens : % change in supply i.e 10 % < % change in price i.e 15% , so supply is inelastic
- Bright Ideas Lightbulbs : % change in supply 15% negligible in relation to 400% price change , so supply is perfectly inelastic
It is called the Naegele's run the show. It predicts an expected due date in light of the beginning of the lady's last menstrual period. You just extra nine months and seven days to land at the due date.
It is a standard method for ascertaining the due date for a pregnancy while expecting a gestational age of 280 days at labor.
