On of one of the practice questions. The question asked the following:

Research and development services performed by Key Corp. for Orr $ 150,000
Design, construction, and testing of preproduction prototypes and models $200,000
Testing in search for new products or process alternatives $175,000In its current year income statement, what should Orr report as research and development expense under U.S. GAAP?
a.
$200,000
b.
$525,000
c.
$150,000
d.
$350,000The answer is b. But,I do not understand why the answer is b. Shouldnt “Research and development services performed by Key Corp. for Orr” be capitalized under Gaap?
Thanks.
