Acquired software technology and capitalized software development costs include the impact of foreign currency translation.

Acquired software technology costs relate to technology purchased as a result of the Company's fiscal 2013 acquisitions of DynaSys and CEBOS, as described in Note 4 "Business Combinations" within these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition to the acquired software technology, the Company has capitalized costs related to translations and localizations of QAD Enterprise Applications.

Amortization of capitalized software costs was $0.3 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended April 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Amortization of capitalized software costs is included in "Cost of license fees" in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
 
The following table summarizes the estimated amortization expense relating to the Company's capitalized software costs as of April 30, 2013:
