Answer 1

ANSWER

a
Calculation of goodwill:
Acquisition cost		6,000,000
Fair value of noncontrolling interest		1,200,000
Total Fair Value		7,200,000
Book Value of Saylor’s	3,600,000
Revaluations:
Land	(300,000 )
unrecorded developed technology	600,000	3,900,000
Goodwill		3,300,000

Allocation of goodwill between controlling and noncontrolling interest:
Total goodwill	3,300,000
Pennant's goodwill(6,000,000 -80%of 3,900,000)	2,288,000
Goodwill to noncontrolling interest	420,000

Transaction	Account Description	Debit	Credit
E	Stockholders’ equity – Saylor	3,600,000
	Investment in Saylor(80%)		2,880,000
	Noncontrolling interest in Saylor(20%)		720,000
R
	Unrecorded developed technology	600,000
	Goodwill	3,300,000
	Land		300,000
	Investment in Saylor*		2,070,400
	Noncontrolling interest in Saylor		144,000
	*2,288,000+80%(600,000-300,000)= 2,070,400
	*420,000+20%(600,000-300,000)= 144,000
