SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software and ASC 985-20, Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased, or Marketed.
For software intended for internal use, software development costs are capitalized in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal Use Software. Software development costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation and maintenance activities are expensed as incurred. Direct costs related to application development activities that are probable to result in additional functionality are capitalized.
For software intended for external customers, costs incurred before technological feasibility are expensed as research and development. Costs incurred after technological feasibility and before the product is available for general release to customers are capitalized in accordance with ASC 985-20, Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed.
We amortize capitalized software values on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life of five years. If the actual
useful life of the asset is determined to be shorter than our estimated useful life, we will amortize the remaining book value over the remaining actual useful life, or the asset may be deemed to be impaired and, accordingly, a write-down of the value of the asset may be recorded as a charge to earnings. Amortization begins when the computer software is ready for its intended use.
