Expert Solution
Requirement 1:

Cost of patent purchased in Jan 2004 = $59500

Useful life of patent = 17 years

Amortisation amount = Cost of patent purchased / Useful life 

= 59500/17 = $3500

Carrying value of patent as on December 31, 2004 = Original cost of patent - Amortisation amount 

= 59500 - 3500 = $56000.
