Question

Padre, Inc., buys 80 percent of the outstanding common stock of Sierra Corporation on January 1, 2018, for $680,000 cash. At the acquisition date, Sierra’s total fair value, including the noncontrolling interest, was assessed at $850,000 although Sierra’s book value was only $600,000. Also, several individual items on Sierra’s financial records had fair values that differed from their book values as follows:

	Book Value				Fair Value
Land	$	60,000			$	225,000
Buildings and equipment (10-year remaining life)		275,000				250,000
Copyright (20-year remaining life)		100,000				200,000
Notes payable (due in 8 years)		(130,000	)			(120,000	)

For internal reporting purposes, Padre, Inc., employs the equity method to account for this investment. The following account balances are for the year ending December 31, 2018, for both companies.

Using the acquisition method, prepare the worksheet to consolidate these two companies. (For accounts where multiple consolidation entries are required, combine all debit entries into one amount and enter this amount in the debit column of the worksheet. Similarly, combine all credit entries into one amount and enter this amount in the credit column of the worksheet. Amounts in the Debit and Credit columns should be entered as positive. Negative amounts for the Noncontrolling Interest and Consolidated Totals columns should be entered with a minus sign.)
