Over a 4 year period the Yellow corporation purchased 100% of the outstanding voting shares of Green Co. The acquisition was made in a series of steps as follows...

Date % Purchase Price

January, Year 1 5% 5,000

January, Year 2 10% 12,000

January, Year 3   10% 15,000

January, Year 4 75% 200,000

Total 100% 232,000

Any excess of the purchase price over the net book value of the assets was attributed to goodwill.

The acquisition in Year 3 allowed Yellow to have significant influence over the operating policies of Green.

The acquisition in Year 4 gave Yellow control over Green.

Operating results, dividends paid and fair value of White for the 4 years were as follows:

Net Income Dividend Paid Fair Value

January Year 1 100,000

Year 1 25,000 15,000 120,000

Year 3 40,000 20,000 170,000

Year 4 50,000 25,000 250,000
