Question

At the beginning of the current year, Boyet Company bought 40% of Aubrey Company’s outstanding

ordinary shares for P3,500,000. The company also paid P700,000 to a business broker who helped find a

suitable business and negotiated the purchase.

The carrying amount of Aubrey Company’s net assets at the purchase date totaled P9,000,000.

The difference was attributed to plant which had a carrying amount of P1,100,000 and a fair value of

P2,000,000 and to inventory which had a carrying amount of P250,000 and a fair value of P350,000. The

plant has 18-year life. All inventory was sold during the current year.

During the current year, the investee reported net income of P1,200,000 and paid a P200,000 cash

dividend.
