On January 1, 2017, Procise Corporation acquired 100 percent of the outstanding voting stock of GaugeRite Corporation for $2,040,050 cash. On the acquisition date, GaugeRite had the following balance sheet:
Cash | $ | 96,000 | Accounts payable | $ | 216,000 | |
Accounts receivable | 166,000 | Long-term debt | 950,000 | |||
