Answer:

$450,000

Explanation:

Byte Co. has to report the lesser between net realizable value and the amortized value.

  • the net realizable value = $480,000
  • the amortized value = $600,000 x (1 - 1/4) = $450,000

Since $450,000 is less than $480,000, it must be reported as the net capitalized cost in the balance sheet.
