Intangible Assets and Intellectual Property | Intangible Assets and Intellectual Property Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit of five to fifteen years. We evaluate the recoverability of intangible assets periodically and take into consideration events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate that impairment exists. All of our intangible assets are subject to amortization. No material impairments of intangible assets have been identified during any of the periods presented. The Company’s accumulated amortization expense on intangible assets totaled $4,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and $16,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
(a)Product Development During the fourth quarter of 2022, certain historical accounts have been reclassified to comply with their treatment according to ASC. What was classified as goodwill in 2021 is classified as product development for 2022. Upon further consideration, discussion and review, the Company has reverted to its previous classification of goodwill, separating goodwill from product development during 2023. Goodwill is not being amortized.
(b)Patent The Company has a US patent 9217598B2 for FlexFridge, a foldable refrigerator, acquired with the Bozki merger. The patent is not being amortized because we have not put it into production yet. However, we will amortize it when it goes into production. Ameritek Ventures sold in the first quarter of 2022 a drone patent in exchange for 3,500,000 common shares per share Canadian to ZenaTech, Inc, a related party, at the exchange rate of 1.2691 $US to CAN$, as listed by https://www.poundsterlinglive.com/. Ameritek realized $661,887 revenue from this sale equally from the period January 1 through December 31, 2022. |
