Answer 1

Percentage of R&D Expenses capitalize during the year:-

R& D expenses transfer during the year for capitalization - 809

Total R& D expenses - 1539+1426= 2965

% of capitalization- 809/2965*100= 27.28%

computation of average product development cost-

opening value- 4525

closing value- 5196

average = 4525+5196/2= 4860.50

calculation of average useful life-

average capitalise product development cost- 4860.50

amortization expenses (average) - 1950.50

average Useful life- 4860.50/1950.50= 2.5years (approx)
