Let's say there's a private company owned 100% by the inventor of the product which the company sells. The company must pay the inventor royalties on each product sold. let's say the company bought 1000 from the supplier and sold 200. so now there are 200 in royalties outstanding. How can i account for this? I mean, in a case situation, are there different options? (i.e. what would be best to have a conservative net income, or an aggressive one or for that matter one that follows stewardship)? Or is there just one option - expense them?
