Problem 4-25 (Static) (LO 4-3, 4-5, 4-7)
On January 1, 2023, Holland Corporation paid $8 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 $6.50 per share both before and after the acquisition by Holland. Zeelands acquisition date balance sheet follows:
Current assets | $ 14,000 | Liabilities | $ 212,000 |
Property and equipment (net) | 268,000 | Common stock | 100,000 |
Patents | 190,000 | Retained earnings | 160,000 |
$ 472,000 | $ 472,000 |
On January 1, 2023, Holland assessed the carrying amount of Zeelands equipment (5-year remaining life) to be undervalued by $55,000. Holland also determined that Zeeland possessed unrecorded patents (10-year remaining life) worth $285,000. 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.
