PROBLEM 13 Howard Corporation acquired a patent right on July 1, 2007 for P250,000. The remaining legal life on the date of purchase is 15 years. However, due to rapidly changing technology, management estimates that the remaining useful life on July 1, 2007 is only 5 years. At January 1, 2008, management is uncertain that the process can actually be made economically feasible and decides to write down the patent to and estimated recoverable amount of P75,000. Amortization will be taken over 3 years from the point. On January 1, 2010, having perfected the related production process, the entity adopts the revaluation mode to measure the patent. He patent now has a fair value of P300,000. Furthermore, the estimated remaining useful life is now believed to be 5 years. REQUIRED: 1) How much is the loss on impairment on January 1, 2008? 2) How much can be recognized as gain on impairment recovery in 2010? Rspaderes2013

No additional patents resulted from these activities. - A patent infringement suit brought by the Company against a competitor because of the manufacture of articles infringing on Patent Y was successfully prosecuted at Acost of P42,600. A decision in the case was rendered in June 2010. - On June 1, 2011, Patent Z was purchased for P172,800. This patent had 16 years yet to run. - During 2012, Elisa expended P180,000 on patent development.

Page 9 of 11

a. The franchise agreement was between ABC and DEF Inc. which granted ABC the exclusive right to distribute the computer software products of DEF Inc. in certain areas of eastern and central Visayas for an indefinite period. The agreement was entered into early in January of 2007 and has required ABC corporation to pay DEF Inc. the total franchise fee amounting to P10M. 40% of the amount has been paid outright as down payment with the remaining balance payable in 5 equal installments starting the year after the agreement was completed. The prevailing market rate of interest for this type of transaction by the time the agreement was entered into was 11%. The company recorded the transaction as follows: 01/01/07

Franchise Cash Notes payable

10M 4M 6M

The Company charged the notes payable thereafter for the subsequent periodic payments. During the current year, verifiable evidence show that future net cash flows expected from franchise agreement with DEF may have been affected by the launching of DEF’s competitor for equally competitive products in the eastern and central visayas market. The company now estimates that its average net annual cash flows from distributing products of DEF amounting to P1.8M annually and will be cut by 40% because of this development. You have ascertained that the appropriate discount rate useful in the measuring impairment loss on the franchise is at 15%. b. The Company started developing computer software for small and medium business enterprises on January 1, 2009. The computer software therefore, refers to the cost of computer application software developed internally by the company and distributes to small and medium business enterprises in eastern and central visayas. The carrying value of the software comprise of the following: Cost incurred in the research activities relating to the creation of computer software Costs incurred in completing the detailed program design Cost of computer facilities especially acquired for the coding and testing of product masters of the computer software (useful for many software development projects over 3 years) Operating system of the computer facility above Salaries of staff who worked on the coding and testing of the product masters Cost of supplicating the product master for sale

The company estimates that the computer software shall be salable for about two more years at which time a better and more superior computer software with same capability may have been already created. The company further projects that it will generate approximately P1.5M more in product sale in 2011 and P500,000 in 2012. Rspaderes2013
