On January 1, 2015, The Donut Stop purchased a patent for $76,000. The remaining legal life is 20 years, but the company estimates the patent will be useful for only five more years. In January 2016, the company incurred legal fees of $40,000 in successfully defending a patent infringement suit. The successful defense did not change the company's estimate of useful life. The Donut Stop's year-end is December 31st.
