    Assume that Mergaronite took over Hill on January 1, 2014, by issuing 7,000 shares of common stock having a par value of $10 per share but a fair value of $100 each. On January 1, 2014, Hills land was undervalued by $20,000, its buildings were overvalued by $30,000, and equipment was undervalued by $60,000. The buildings had a 10-year remaining life; the equipment had a 5-year remaining life. A customer list with an appraised value of $100,000 was developed internally by Hill and was to be written off over a 20-year period.

    1. Determine and explain the December 31, 2018, consolidated totals for the following accounts:

       Revenues	Amortization Expense	Customer List
       Cost of Goods Sold	Buildings	Common Stock
       Depreciation Expense	Equipment	Additional Paid-In Capital

    2. In requirement (a), why can the consolidated totals be determined without knowing which method the parent used to account for the subsidiary?

    3. If the parent uses the equity method, what consolidation entries would be used on a 2018 worksheet?
