Question:
Pam Corporation acquired 80 percent of Sun Corporation's common stock on January 1, 2016, for $840,000 cash. The stockholders' equity of Sun at this time consisted of $600,000 capital stock and $200,000 retained earnings. The difference between the fair value of Sun and the underlying equity acquired in Sun was due to a $50,000 undervaluation of Sun's inventory, a $100,000 undervaluation of Sun's equipment, and unrecorded patents with a 20-year remaining life.
The undervalued inventory was sold by Sun during 2016, and the undervalued equipment had a remaining useful life of five years. Straight-line depreciation is used.
Sun owed Pam $16,000 on accounts payable at December 31, 2016.
