17. The amount by which the purchase price exceeds the fair market value of net assets acquired. Occurs when one company buys another company. Only purchased goodwill is an intangible asset. Goodwill 17

18. Positive attributes of goodwill are: – Favorable reputation – Positive market share – Positive advertising image – Reputation of high quality and loyal employees – Superior Management – Manufacturing and other operating efficiency 18

21. Intangible Assets – Patents Exclusive right granted by federal government to sell or manufacture an invention. Cost is purchase price plus legal cost to defend. Amortize cost over the shorter of useful life or 17 years. 21

22. Assume that the patent is purchased from the inventor at a cost of $100,000 after 5 years of legal life have expired, therefore the remaining legal life is 12 years. But if estimated useful life is only four years, amortization should be based on this shorter period. The entry to record this amortization is Patents 22

23. Patent Prepare the journal entry to record the trade. 23

24. Intangible Assets – Trademarks and Trade Names A symbol, design, or logo associated with a business. Purchased trademarks are recorded at cost, and amortized over shorter of legal or economic life, or 40 years. Internally developed trademarks have no recorded asset cost. 24

25. Intangible Assets – Franchises Legally protected right to sell products or provide services purchased by franchisee from franchisor. Purchase price is intangible asset which is amortized over the shorter of the protected right or 40 years. 25

26. Intangible Assets – Copyrights Exclusive right granted by the federal government to protect artistic or intellectual properties. Amortize cost over a period not to exceed 40 years. Legal life is life of creator plus 50 years. 26

27. Total cost, including exploration and development, is charged to depletion expense over periods benefited. Examples: oil, coal, gold Extracted from the natural environment and reported at cost less accumulated depletion. Natural Resources 27

28. Depletion is calculated using the units-of-production method. Unit depletion rate is calculated as follows: Total Units of Capacity Cost – Salvage Value Depletion of Natural Resources 28

29. Depletion of Natural Resources Total depletion cost for a period is: Unit Depletion Rate Number of Units Extracted in Period × Total depletion cost Inventory for sale Unsold Inventory Cost of goods sold 29

30. Depletion of Natural Resources Specialized plant assets may be required to extract the natural resource. These assets are recorded in a separate account and depreciated. 30

31. Assume that rainbow minerals pay $45 million to acquire red valley mine that has 10 million tons of coal. The residual is estimated to be $5 million. The depletion over life is of 40 million and rate $4 per million. Assume that 2 million tons are mined during first year so prepare journal entry Natural resources 31

32. Natural resources Prepare the journal entry to record the trade. 32

34. Cost per Unit of Output = Cost - Residual Value Estimated Units of Output Depreciation Expense = Cost per Unit of Output × Number of Units Produced The Units-of-Output Method 34

35. Consider S & G delivery truck which cost $17,000 and has an estimated salvage value of $ 2,000. Assume that S & G plans to retire this truck after it has been delivered 100,000 mile. Calculate the deprecation rate Unit of Output method 35

36. Unit of Output Cost per Unit of Output Cost - Residual Value Estimated Units of Output Cost per Unit of Output 17,000 - 2,000 100,000 miles $0.15 Depreciation per mile 36
