Note 6 – Intangible Assets

 

In March 2013, the Company purchased certain intangible assets as part of the acquisition of Sustainable Oils, LLC.  See further discussion on acquisition in Note 11.  The intangible assets include 3 patents and the related intellectual property associated with these patents.  These intangible assets acquired have an expected useful life of 17 years and are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any impairment losses.  The company has recorded $9,995 in amortization expense in the three month period ended March 31, 2013 and no expense in the three month period ended March 31, 2012.

 

Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of the intangible assets  over their estimated useful lives of 17 years.
