3 You noted the following items relative to the company’s Intangible assets in connection
with your audit of the PRTC Corporation’s financial statements for the year 2012.
Franchise
On January 1, 2012, PRTC signed an agreement to operate as franchisee of Clear Copy Service, Inc. for an
initial franchise of P680,000. Of this amount, P200,000 was paid when the agreement was signed and
the balance was payable in four annual payments of P120,000 each, beginning January 1, 2013. The
agreement provides that the down payment is not refundable and no future services are required of the
franchisor. The implicit rate for loan of this type is 14%. The agreement also provides the 5% of the
revenue from the franchise must be paid to the franchisor annually. PRTC’s revenue from the franchise
for 2012 was P8,000,000. PRTC estimates the useful life of the franchise to be ten years.
Patent
On July 1, 2012, PRTC purchased a patent from the inventor, who asked P1,100,000 for it. PRTC paid for
the patent as follows: cash, P400,000; issuance of 10,000 shares of its own ordinary shares, par P10
(market value, P20 per share); and a note payable due at the end of three years, face amount, P500,000,
noninterest-bearing. The current interest rate for this type of financing is 12 percent. PRTC estimates the
useful life of the patent to be ten years.
Trademark
PRTC purchased for P1,200,000 a trademark for a very successful soft drink it markets under the name
POWER!. The trademark was determined to have an indefinite life. A competitor recently introduced a
product that is in direct competition with the POWER! product, thus suggesting the need for an
impairment test. Data gathered by the entity suggests that the useful life of the trademark is still
indefinite, but the cash flows expected to be generated by the trademark have been reduced either to
P40,000 per year (with a probability of 70%) or to P80,000 per year (with 30% probability). The
appropriate risk-free interest rate is 5%. The appropriate riskadjusted interest rate is 10%.
