All figures below are 000 unless stated

  1. Closing Inventory

An inventory count indicates the valuation to be 1,963.

  1. Brand costs Synths Project

The costs of 747 accumulated to this cost centre during the year are for a major brand campaign for a product to be launched during 20X6. The directors would like to treat these costs as an intangible asset on the statement of financial position and then amortise the asset over the life of the product. The economic life is estimated to be 6 years

  1. Licence costs Woollens

These costs relate to the acquisition of an exclusive licence to market and sell the Woollens branded products. It was purchased from a company called Heavy Ltd at the end of 20X5. The agreement is for 5 years.

  1. Patent

Rinsed registered a patent at the beginning of 20X5 relating to some of their technology. It has a life of 10 years.

The research and development costs of 1,525 in the year relate to 2 projects, Nylon and Cotton;

  1. Nylon is a new project this year. The product is technically proven.

However there is still some doubt over whether it is commercially viable. Expenditure in 20X5 on Nylon was 625.

  1. Cotton relates to a new product that has gone into production in the year. Sales to date are significantly above plan and latest projections are that the product will generate enough revenue to more than cover the costs of development. In 20X5 the development costs were 900. Cotton went into production on the 1st July and it is estimated that the commercial life is 10 years.

All costs in relation to intangible asset issues are allocated to Selling and

Distribution expenditure when charged to the Statement of Profit or Loss.
