Axcel Software began a new development project in 2015. The project reached technological feasibility on June 30, 2016, and was available for release to customers at the beginning of 2017. Development costs incurred prior to June 30, 2016, were $4,000,000 and costs incurred from June 30 to the product release date were $2,100,000. The 2017 revenues from the sale of the new software were $5,000,000, and the company anticipates additional revenues of $6,500,000. The economic life of the software is estimated at four years. 2017 amortization of the software development costs would be (Round interim calculations to two decimal places (e.g., .422525 as 42.25%)):
