Explanation of Solution

The excess of book value over fair value defines a situation where few or all of the subsidiary’s assets are required to be written down rather than up that is either liability should be increased or both. However, it does not identify whether the acquisition will be resulting in the recording of goodwill or bargain acquisition. That measurement will rely on the evaluation of fair value of identifiable net assets and the implied value, and this is calculated as (Purchase pricePercentage acquired), which is referred in part (b) and (c).
