Problem 24 on page 135. This problem asks you to apply your knowledge of the three methods that an acquiring company can use in accounting for its investment in an acquiring company.
24. Foxx Corporation acquired all of Greenburg Company’s outstanding stock on January 1, 2016, for $600,000 cash. Greenburg’s accounting records showed net assets on that date of $470,000, although equipment with a 10-year remaining life was undervalued on the records by $90,000. Any recognized goodwill is considered to have an indefinite life.
Greenburg reports net income in 2016 of $90,000 and $100,000 in 2017. The subsidiary declared dividends of $20,000 in each of these two years.
Account balances for the year ending December 31, 2018, follow. Credit balances are indicated by parentheses.
