Question 4

Listed below are several transactions that occurred during the year. In each case, all the amounts were debited to an account called "R and D costs." At the end of the year the company wants this account closed out and the amounts either expensed or capitalized to an asset account called "Development costs." a. During the year $5,500,000 was paid to staff to investigate whether a drug combination was effective for reducing a specific type of cancer in mice. Evidence showed it materially reduced the effects of this cancer in the mice.
b. During the year $12,000,000 was paid to staff to investigate whether a drug combination was effective for reducing a specific type of cancer for terminally ill cancer patients. The trials were successful in a limited number of cases but the results were mixed.
c. During the year $44,000,000 was paid to staff to investigate whether a drug combination was effective in reducing a specific type of cancer. The drug was very successful in most cases. Market research shows a huge market for this drug. The Board has committed further resources to complete the development of this project and to market the drug.
d. During the year $41,000,000 was paid to staff to investigate whether a drug combination was effective in reducing a specific type of cancer. The drug combination was very successful in most cases. Market research shows huge a market for this drug combination. The company is too small and does not have adequate funds to complete the balance of the drug testing, so it is looking for a large pharmaceutical firm to take it over and complete the process.

Question 6

Kryan Corp. mines and produces aluminum. During 2021, the company explored two new sites and evaluated them for aluminum ore potential. By the December 31, 2021 year-end, both sites remained in the evaluation stage. During 2022, evaluation of site Apollo was completed and the site was deemed to have sufficient quantities of ore; consequently, development of the site began. However, site Braeden was determined to have ore concentrations too low to be commercially viable. The following is the cost of exploration and evaluation incurred on the two sites:
 $$\begin{array} { | l | r | r | } 
\hline & 2021 & 2022 \
\hline \text { Apollo (A Site) } & \$ 1,569,000 & \$ 1,560,000 \
