To calculate the accumulated amortization of the patent after seven years, you simply multiply the annual amortized expense by the number of years.
Given:
- Annual amortized expense = $250
- Time period = 7 years
Accumulated Amortization = Annual Amortized Expense × Number of Years
Accumulated Amortization = $250 × 7 = $1,750
Thus, the accumulated amortization after seven years will be $1,750.
