1. On January 2, 20X2, Poe Corporation purchased 90 percent of Shaw Company's outstanding common stock for cash of \(\$ 155,000\). On that date, Shaw's stockholders' equity equaled \(\$ 150,000\), and the fair values of Shaw's assets and liabilities equaled their carrying amounts. Poe has accounted for the acquisition as a purchase. On December 31, 20X2, the management of Poe Corporation reviewed the amount attributed to goodwill as a result of its purchase of Shaw Company common stock and found no evidence of impairment.
2. On September 4, 20X2, Shaw paid cash dividends of \(\$ 30,000\).
3. On December 31, 20X2, Poe recorded its equity in Shaw's earnings.

(2) During 20X2, Shaw sold merchandise to Poe for \(\$ 60,000\), which included profit of \(\$ 20,000\). At December 31, 20X2, half of this merchandise remained in Poe's inventory.
