In early January 2019, Blue Corporation applied for a trade name, incurring legal costs of $15,400. In January 2020, Blue incurred $8,100 of legal fees in a successful defense of its trade name. Compute 2019 amortization, 12/31/19 book value, 2020 amortization, and 12/31/20 book value if the company amortizes the trade name over 10 years.

2019 Amortization =$1,540

2019 Book Value=$13,860

2019 Amortization =$2,440

2019 Book Value=$19,520

Explanation:

Computation for 2019 amortization, 12/31/19 book value, 2020 amortization, and 12/31/20 book value if the company amortizes the trade name over 10 years.

Calculation for 2019 Amortization (15,400 ÷ 10)

= 1,540

Calculation for Book Value of December 31, 2019

= 15,400 – 1,540

= 13,860

Calculation for 2020 Amortization will be:

(13,860 + legal fees 8,100) ÷ 9)

= 21,960÷9

= 2,440

Calculation for the Book Value of December 31, 2020

13,860 -2,440

=11,420

= 11,420+8,100

=$19,520
