What is the total amount that should be debited to Patents through July 31, 2022?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$35,000

Explanation:

The computation of total amount that should be debited to patents is shown below:-

The costs of research and development are incurred in the time in which those costs are incurred and not capitalized.

Total amount that should be debited to patents = Patent granted + Legal fees paid

= $20,000 + $15,000

= $35,000

Therefore for computing the total amount that should be debited to patents we simply added patents granted and legal fees paid.
