On January 1,2023, Holland Corporation paid $7 per share to a group of Zeeland Corporation shareholders to acquire 60,000 shares of Zeelands outstanding voting stock, representing a 60 percent ownership interest. The remaining 40,000 shares of Zeeland continued to trade in the market close to its recent average of $5.00 per share both before and after the acquisition by Holland. Zeelands acquisition date balance sheet follows:

Current assets $ 15,000 Liabilities $ 227,000

Property and equipment (net)209,000 Common stock 100,000

Patents 203,000 Retained earnings 100,000

427,000 $ 427,000

On January 1,2023, Holland assessed the carrying amount of Zeelands equipment (5-year remaining life) to be undervalued by $65,000. Holland also determined that Zeeland possessed unrecorded patents (10-year remaining life) worth $226,600. Zeelands acquisition-date fair values for its current assets and liabilities were equal to their carrying amounts. Any remaining excess of Zeelands acquisition-date fair value over its book value was attributed to goodwill.
