Answer:

$135000

Explanation:

Cole should record the patent at $135000. The intangible asset is recorded at the price at which it was purchased. Net carrying value of $160000 in the books of seller is not useful.

At the time of purchase of intangible asset, the fair value of stone stock exchanged was $45.

3000 shares × $45 per share = $135000.

Cole should record the patent at this value.
