Respuesta :

Answer:

$18,800

Explanation:

The amortization expense can be calculated by dividing the cost of copyright to purchase by the estimated useful life and then multiplied by the number of months covered until May 1, 2017.

Amortization expense =  Cost to purchase  / Estimated useful life) x 8/12 Amortization expense = ($112,800 / 4 years) * 8/12

Amortization expense = $18,800

As the copyright is purchased on may 1 it will cover 8 months till 31 december 2017
