Chapter 1, Problem 7P

In January 2017, Domingo, Inc., acquired 20 percent of the outstanding common stock of Martes, Inc., for $700,000. This investment gave Domingo the ability to exercise significant influence over Martes, whose balance sheet on that date showed total assets of $3,900,000 with liabilities of $900,000. Any excess of cost over book value of the investment was attributed to a patent having a remaining useful life of 10 years.

  In 2017, Martes reported net income of $170,000. In 2018, Martes reported net income of $210,000. Dividends of $70,000 were declared in each of these two years. What is the equity method balance of Domingo’s Investment in Martes, Inc., at December 31, 2018?

On January 1, 2017, Alison, Inc., paid $800,000 for a 40 percent interest in Hollister Corporation’s common stock. This investee had assets with a book value of $300,000 and liabilities of $175,000. A patent held by Hollister having a $5,000 book value was worth $20,000. This patent had a six-year remaining life. Any further excess cost associated with this acquisition was attributed to goodwill. During 2017, Hollister earned income of $30,000 and declared and paid dividends of $10,000. In 2018, it had income of $50,000 and dividends of $15,000. During 2018, the fair value of Allison’s investment in Hollister had risen from $68,000 to $75,000.  Assuming Alison uses the equity method, what balance should appear in the Investment in Hollister account as of December 31, 2018? Assuming Alison uses fair-value accounting, what income from the investment in Hollister should be reported for 2018? (Acquisition price is $100,000)
