Phoenix Corporation acquired the business Sun Systems for $315,000 cash and assumed all liabilities at the date of purchase. Sun’s books showed tangible assets of $330,000, liabilities of $18,000, and stockholders’ equity of $312,000. An appraiser assessed the fair market value of the tangible assets at $305,000 and liabilities at $18,000 at the date of acquisition. Phoenix Corporation’s financial condition just prior to the acquisition is shown in the following statements model. Required 1 Compute the amount of goodwill acquired. 2 Record the acquisition in general journal format.
ABC Company acquired all of XYZ Corporation’s assets and liabilities on June 30, 20X1. XYZ reported assets with a book value of P1,000,000 and liabilities of P550,000. ABC noted that XYZ included the amount P70,000 for an obsolete inventory at the acquisition date that did not appear to have any value. ABC also determined that an old machine previously used by XYZ had a fair value of P150,000 but had not been recorded by XYZ. Except for machinery and equipment, all the other assets and liabilities of XYZ approximated their fair values. In recording the transfer of assets and liabilities in its books, ABC recorded goodwill of P420,000 and paid P1,050,000 to acquire XYZ’s net assets. If the book value of XYZ's machinery and equipment was P520,000, what was their fair value?

The Semos identifiable net assets have book and fair values of $400,000 and $800,000, respectively. Compare accounting for the acquisition (including assignment of the price paid) by Puncho with accounting for the sale by Semos.
