Satellite Systems modified its model Z2 satellite to incorporate a new communication device. The company made the following expenditures:
Basic research to develop the technology $3,800,000
Engineering design work 1,160,000
Development of a prototype device 580,000
Testing and modification of the prototype 380,000
Legal fees for patent application 78,000
Legal fees for successful defense of the new patent 38,000
Total $6,036,000
During your year-end review of the accounts related to intangibles, you discover that the company has capitalized all the above as costs of the patent. Management contends that the device represents an improvement of the existing communication system of the satellite and, therefore, should be capitalized.
Required:
Determine the amount Satellite Systems should capitalize to the Patent account in the balance sheet.
