At the beginning of 20X7, Bryan's Bakery Company purchased a secret cookie recipe for $25,000. In addition, Bryan developed a new cake recipe at a cost of $5,000. Bryan expects to use both recipes indefinitely; however, the useful (economic) life of similar recipes has been 10 years. Assuming straight-line amortization, what amount of recipe expense should Bryan report for the year ended 20X7 and what amount should Bryan report as assets related to these recipes on its balance sheet at the end of 20X7?
Recipe expense Balance sheet
A) $5,000 $25,000
B) $7,500 $22,500
C) $3,000 $30,000

The recipes are intangible assets. The purchased cookie recipe is capitalized and amortized over 10 years at $2,500 per year ($25,000 cost / 10 years). Since the cake recipe was developed internally, it is expensed immediately. Thus, total expense for 20X7 is $7,500 ($2,500 amortization expense + $5,000 cake recipe expense). The balance sheet value of the purchased recipe at the end of 20X7 is $25,000 -$2,500 = $22,500.
