Assume none of the trademarks were judged to be impaired during the year. Required: Based on the information given, determine the following for trademarks disposed of during 2015: (a) their cost, (b) their accumulated amortization at the time of disposal, and (c) the gain (loss) on disposal of trademarks. (

a. Their cost would be $402 million

b. Their accumulated amortization at the time of disposal would be $16 million

c. The loss on disposal of trademarks would be $383 million

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate their cost we would have to make the following calculation:

cost of disposed trademarks= cost of trademark+trademark acquired-trademark at the end

cost of disposed trademarks=$2,016 million + $89 million -$ 1,703

cost of disposed trademarks=$402 million

b. In order to calculate their accumulated amortization at the time of disposal we would have to make the following calculation:

accumulated amortization at the time of disposal=amortization accumulated at the beginning+ amortization expense during the year-ammortization accumulated at the end

accumulated amortization at the time of disposal=$20+$3-$7

accumulated amortization at the time of disposal=$16 million

c. In order to calculate the gain (loss) on disposal of trademarks we would have to make the following calculation:

gain (loss) on disposal of trademarks= cost of trademark disposed-amortization expense during the year-proceeds from sale of trademark

gain (loss) on disposal of trademarks=$402-$16-$3

loss on disposal of trademarks=$383 million
