_
What amount of intangible amortization should Wright recognize for the year ended December, Year1?
_
1- Zero
2-one Hundred Thousand
3-two Hundred Thousand

answer is : Number 2 , 100,000
Two intangible assets were acquired at the beginning of the year. The first has a finite life and thus should be amortized;
_
the second has an indefinite life and cannot be amortized. The second asset looks like it might be impaired, but they did not ask for the impairment loss.
_
The acquisition cost of the first intangible asset was $5,000,000. That cost is amortized over the life of 50 years, for an annual amortization of $100,000.
