Milton Printers incurred external costs of $700,000 for a patent for a new laser printer.Although the patent gives legal protection for 20 years, it was expected to provide Miltonwith a competitive advantage for only eight years due to expected technological advancesin the industry. Milton uses the straight-line method of amortization.2. After using the patent for four years, Milton learned at an industry trade show thatAnderson Printers has patented a more efficient printer and will begin selling the newprinter next quarter. Because of this new information, Milton determined that the expectedfuture cash flows from its patent were now only $270,000. The fair value of Milton’spatent on the open market was now zero.Requirements1. Write the journal entries to record (a) the purchase of the patent and (b) amortization for year 1.2. Once Milton learned of the competing printer and adjusted the expected future…
(Learning Objective 3: Change a plant asset’s useful life) Chester Consultantspurchased a building for $430,000 and depreciated it on a straight-line basis over 40 years. Theestimated residual value was $70,000. After using the building for 20 years, Chester realizedthat the building would remain useful only 14 more years. Starting with the 21st year, Chesterbegan depreciating the building over the newly revised total life of 34 years and decreasedthe estimated residual value to $12,980. Record depreciation expense on the building foryears 20 and 21.
(Learning Objective 3: Compute and record depreciation after a change in usefullife of the asset) Fun Town Amusement Park paid $500,000 for a concession stand. Fun Townstarted out depreciating the building using the straight-line method over 25 years with a residualvalue of zero. After using the concession stand for four years, Fun Town determines that thebuilding will remain useful for only five more years. Record Fun Town’s depreciation on theconcession stand for year five using the straight-line method.
