It has scientists who possess the skills knowledge and experience needed to perform these activities. It also has tangible assets which include lab equipment and a factory and laboratory to perform such activities. Currently the product is not ready to be marketed and no sales have been made. All of the assets acquired are deemed to individually have a similar fair value.
