Scott mentioned: "money spent on Corel Computer Corporation. If
these costs were taken out of R & D,..."

I am just curious:

If Corel expenses all of these costs, what will happen when Corel Computer is set-up independently and or gone public. How does Canadian Accounting rules treat this? Can a Corel Computer go public, selling shares at a deemed value, which wrote off its' original R&D costs to Corel Corporation?

How much of these costs have been capitalized by Corel?

If Corel Corporation does not receive credit for these expenditures if they have been written off, then we as shareholders foot the bill (lower profits, lower share price).

Any views on this?
