All rights reserved. 15996ORA Internally Generated Intangible Assets Internally generated intangible assets (IGIA) are assets that are: – Created or produced by the government or an entity contracted by the government; -OR- – Acquired from a third party but require more than minimal incremental effort to achieve expected level of service capacity GASB Statement No. 51 provides a specified-conditions approach to recognizing outlays associated with IGIA 14 Year-End GAAP TrainingMay 2010

15 © 2010 KPMG LLP, a Delaware limited liability partnership and the U.S. member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative (“KPMG International”), a Swiss entity. All rights reserved. 15996ORA Internally Generated Intangible Assets Outlays incurred related to an IGIA that is considered identifiable should be capitalized ONLY upon the occurrence of ALL of the following: – Determination of the specific objective of the project and the nature of the service capacity that is expected to be provided by the intangible asset upon completion of the project; – Demonstration of the technical or technological feasibility for completing the project so that the intangible asset will provide its expected service capacity; and – Demonstration of the current intention, ability, and presence of effort to complete or, in the case of a multiyear project, continue development of the intangible asset. Outlays incurred prior to meeting criteria should be expensed as incurred. 15 Year-End GAAP TrainingMay 2010

All rights reserved. 15996ORA Internally Generated Computer Software Computer software is a common type of intangible asset that is often internally generated. Computer software should be considered internally generated if: – It is developed in-house by the government’s personnel OR – It is developed by a third-party contractor on behalf of the government – It is commercially available software that is purchased or licensed by the government and modified using more than incremental effort before being put into operation (i.e., licensed financial accounting software that the government modifies to add special reporting capabilities) 17 Year-End GAAP TrainingMay 2010

All rights reserved. 15996ORA Internally Generated Computer Software Activities involved in developing and installing internal generated computer software can be grouped into the following steps: – Preliminary Project Stage – Application Development Stage – Post-Implementation/Operation Stage 18 Year-End GAAP TrainingMay 2010

All rights reserved. 15996ORA Internally Generated Computer Software The criteria noted on slide #15 should be considered met only when both of the following occur: – The activities noted in the preliminary project stage are completed – Management implicitly or explicitly authorizes and commits to funding, at least currently in the case of a multiyear project, the software project. Accordingly, outlays associated with activities in the PRELIMINARY PROJECT STAGE should be expensed as incurred. For commercially available software that will be modified to the point that it is considered “internally generated”, (a) and (b) above generally would be considered to have occurred upon the government’s commitment to purchase or license the computer software. 19 Year-End GAAP TrainingMay 2010

All rights reserved. 15996ORA Internally Generated Computer Software Once the criteria noted on slide #15 are met, outlays related to activities in the APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT STAGE should be capitalized. Capitalization of such outlays should cease no later than the point at which the computer software is substantially complete and operational. Outlays associated with activities in the POST- IMPLEMENTATION/OPERATION STAGE should be expensed as incurred. 20 Year-End GAAP TrainingMay 2010

All rights reserved. 15996ORA Internally Generated Computer Software Outlays associated with an internally generated modification of computer software that is already in operation should be capitalized if the modification results in ANY of the following: – An increase in the functionality of the computer software, – An increase in the efficiency of the computer software, or – An extension of the estimated useful life of the software. Note - If the modification does not result in any of the above outcomes, the modification should be considered maintenance, and the associated outlays should be expensed as incurred. 21 Year-End GAAP TrainingMay 2010

All rights reserved. 15996ORA Impairment Indicators Impairment is indicated when events or changes in circumstances suggest that the service utility of the capital asset may have significantly and unexpectedly declined. Common indicators of impairment include (paragraph 9 of GASB Statement No. 42): – Evidence of physical damage, such as for a building damaged by fire or flood, when the level of damage is such that restoration efforts are needed to restore service utility – Enactment or approval of laws or regulations or other changes in environmental factors, such as new water quality standards that a water treatment plant does not meet (and cannot be modified to meet) – Technological development or evidence of obsolescence, such as that related to a major piece of diagnostic or research equipment (for example, a magnetic resonance imaging machine or a scanning electron microscope) that is rarely used because newer equipment provides better service 27 Year-End GAAP TrainingMay 2010

(GASB 51 ¶ 21) GASB Staff Implementation Guide Z.51.31 and Z.51.32 Systemwide retroactive reporting instructions for each type of these intangible assets: – Computer Software: CSU has capitalized and reported internally generated software in the past and will continue to do so according to GASB Statement 51.

The adequate records to determine or estimate the historical cost are generally hard to obtain. – Patents, Copyrights, & Trademarks, which have indefinite lives or were internally generated, and were obtained on or before June 30, 2009, except those were already reported as of June 30, 2009. – Licenses & Permits which have indefinite lives or were internally generated, and were obtained on or before June 30, 2009, except those were already reported as of June 30, 2009. – Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Licenses 34 Year-End GAAP TrainingMay 2010
