RESALABLE SOFTWARE LICENSE RIGHTS

 

On December 31, 2015, the Company purchased third-party software licenses in the amount of $180,000 in anticipation of a large pending deployment that has yet to materialize. The Company is amortizing the total cost over the greater of actual unit cost of licenses sold or the straight line method over 10 years with the greater of the two approaches being the actual unit cost per license sold. A total of $2,481 and $2,579 was expensed during the three month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. A total of $7,465 and $7,588 was expensed during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Since the license purchase, the cumulative amount of $138,714 has been expensed, with a carrying balance of $41,286 and $48,752 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

 

The Company has classified the balance as non-current until a larger deployment occurs.

 

Estimated minimum amortization expense based on straight-line amortization of the software license rights over the remaining useful life approximates the following:
