Assume that Cannon LLC acquires a competitor's assets on June 15^th of a prior year. The purchase price was $450,000.

On May 30^th of the second year, the customer list is sold for $10,000. (Round your amortization and final answer to the nearest whole number. Round your allocation percentage to the nearest whole percentage e.g., 0.1234 as 12%.)
1) What is Cannon's amortization expense for the second year?
2) What is the basis of the intangibles at the end of the second year?
