Brush Company engaged in the following transactions at the beginning of 2016:

a. Purchased a patent (Patent A) for $70,000 that had originally been filed in January 2010. The purchase was made to protect another patent (Patent B) that the company had filed for in January 2012 and subsequently received.

b. Purchased the rights to a novel by a best-selling novelist in exchange for 10,000 shares of $10 par value common stock selling for $60 per share. The book is expected to sell 1,500,000 copies over the next 3 years with no significant sales of the novel expected beyond 3 years.

c. Purchased the franchise to operate a ferry service from the state government for $10,000. A bridge has been planned to replace the ferry, and the bridge is expected to be completed in 5 years.
