What is the goodwill/badwill under Method 2?
Goodwill Amount = $ 6,750 | |||||||
Solution | |||||||
Goodwill = Purchase Consideration - Net Assets | |||||||
Net Assets = Shareholders Funds = Total Assets - External Liabilities | |||||||
Purchase Consideration Paid | 65,000 | ||||||
Shareholders Funds or Net Assets | |||||||
Share Capital acquired (75% of 1,00,000) | 75,000 | ||||||
Quoted per share price | 0.71 | ||||||
Total quoted price (75,000 x 0.71) | 53,250 | ||||||
Less: | Accumulated Losses | -40,000 | |||||
13,250 | |||||||
Add: | Increase in fair value of assets | 45,000 | |||||
58,250 | |||||||
Net Assets | 58,250 | ||||||
Goodwill (65,000 - 58,250) | 6,750 | ||||||
