IAS 38 states that an intangible asset is to be recognised if, and only if, the following criteria are met: it is probable that future economic benefits from the asset will flow to the entity, the cost of the asset can be reliably measured.The above recognition criteria look straightforward enough, but in reality it can prove to be very difficult to assess whether or not these have been met. In order to make this recognition of intangibles more clear, IAS 38 separates an R&D project into a research phase and a development phase.Research phaseIt is impossible to demonstrate whether or not a product or service at the research stage will generate any probable future economic benefit. As a result, IAS 38 states that all expenditure incurred at the research stage should be written off to the statement of comprehensive income as an expense when incurred, and will never be capitalised as an intangible asset.Development phaseUnder IAS 38, an intangible asset arising from development must be capitalised if an entity can demonstrate all of the following criteria: the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset (so that it will be available for use or sale); intention to complete and use or sell the asset; ability to use or sell the asset; existence of a market or, if to be used internally, the usefulness of the asset; availability of adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the asset; the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. If any of the recognition criteria are not met then the expenditure must be charged to the income statement as incurred. Note that if the recognition criteria have been met, capitalisation must take place. Once development costs have been capitalised, the asset should be amortised in accordance with the accruals concept over its finite life. Amortisation must only begin when commercial production has commenced.Questions:1) Outline the criterias of recognition of intangible assets （5分）2) Criterias to recognised as development (5分)3) Identify the accounting treatment of research phase （10分）4) Identify the accounting treatment of development phase （10分）四、业务题（按规定用英文编制分录，每题2分，共20分）Johnny set up a business and in the first a few days of trading the following transactions occurred (ignore all the tax): 1) He invests $80 000 of his money in his business bank account2) He then buys goods from Isabel, a supplier for $4 000 and pays by cheque, the goods is delivered right after the payment3) A sale is made for $3 000 the customer pays by cheque4) Johnny makes another sale for $2 000 and the customer promises to pay in the future5) He then buys goods from another supplier, Kamen, for $2 000 on credit, goods is delivered on time6) He pays a telephone bill of $800 by cheque7) The credit customer pays the balance on his account8) He returened some faulty goods to his supplier Kamen, which worth $400.9) Bank interest of $70 is received10) A cheque customer returned $400 goods to him for a refund参照答案1、 单项选择题1-5 CCACB 6-10 DCDCD 11-15 ABCDD 16-20 CBABA2、 翻译题1）中翻英1.
