Jan. 1 July 1 Oct. 1 Oct. 1 Dec. 31 Spent $80,000 in legal fees to register a patent for an internally developed concept. The patent should benefit the company for at least its full legal life, and perhaps even longer. Expended $125,000 to research and develop a process that is protected by confidentially agreements with employees (i.e., "trade secret") who worked on the project. Purchased the "MemoryMinder" brand name from a competitor for $500,000. This trade -marked brand name will be used indefinitely to promote a memory aiding drug. Expended $90,000 to purchase a copyright with a 5-year remaining life. This copyright was purchased because it competed with a Tweedy product having a 3-year remaining life. Concluded that $1,000,0000 of goodwill from a business combination arising in 20X5 was no longer of any value to Tweedy.
