Jet Corp. acquired all of the outstanding shares of Nittle Inc. on January 1, 2011, for $644,000 in cash. Of this price, $42,000 was attributed to equipment with a ten-year remaining useful life. Goodwill of $56,000 had also been identified. Jet applied the partial equity method so that income would be accrued each period based solely on the earnings reported by the subsidiary.
On January 1, 2014, Jet reported $280,000 in bonds outstanding with a book value of $263,200. Nittle purchased half of these bonds on the open market for $135,800.
During 2014, Jet began to sell merchandise to Nittle. During that year, inventory costing $112,000 was transferred at a price of $140,000.
