Answer: $200,000

Explanation:

The company spent $200,000 on the research that led to the development of the navigation device and according to Accounting guidelines, Research and Development costs are to be expensed in the period that they occurred.

The entire $200,000 that was spent should therefore be expensed as Research and Development.
