    Accounting homework question
    Dr. Robotniks Inc spent $60,000 in attorney fees while developing the trade name of its new product, The Mean Bean Machine. Prepare the journal entries to record the $60,000 expenditure and the first years amortization, using an 8 year life?

    I would say
    Attorneys fees 60,000
    Cash 60,000

    Amortization expense 7500
    Accumulated amortization 7500

    You need to capitalize the attorney fees.

    If that is what you meant, then I agree with your JE's.
