Question

On January 1, 2020, Adams acquires 100% of Baker in a transaction accounted for using

the acquisition method. Adams will use equity accounting for its investment in Baker.

Baker will remain a wholly owned subsidiary of Adams. The following is information

about this acquisition.

To pay for this purchase, Adams issues 20,000 shares of common stock with a $5 par and

$20 market value. Legal and accounting costs were $50,000. Stock issuance costs were

$20,000. If Baker has net income of $50,000 in 2021, Adams will pay an additional

$100,000. At acquisition date there is a 40% probability of this occurring.

The book value of net assets acquired of Baker was $200,000 at acquisition date. Adams

was willing to pay in excess of book value to acquire Baker because Baker had a building

(10 year life) with a book value of $300,000 and a fair value of $340,000.

Baker has $40,000 in net income in 2020 and pays a dividend of $30,000. Adams has

$100,000 of net income in 2020 and pays a dividend of $70,000.

At December 31, 2020 assume Adams has Buildings with a book value of

$500,000 and fair value of $600,000 and Baker has Buildings with a book value

of $400,000 and a fair value of $450,000.

a. What is the CONSOLIDATED total for buildings at that date ?

b. Prepare journal entry “A” that will show up on the consolidated worksheet as

of December 31, 2020.
