On December 31, 20X6, Greenly Corporation and Lindy Company entered into a business combination in which Greenly acquired all of Lindy’s common stock for $957,000. At the date of combination, Lindy had common stock outstanding with a par value of $117,000, additional paid in capital of $412,000, and retained earnings of $175,000. The fair values and book values of all Lindy’s assets and liabilities were equal at the date of combination, except for the following:
| Book Value | Fair Value | ||||||
| Inventory | $ | 56,000 | $ | 61,000 | |||
| Land | 90,000 | 170,000 | |||||
| Buildings | 412,000 | 515,000 | |||||
| Equipment | 515,000 | 580,000 | |||||
The buildings had a remaining life of 20 years, and the equipment was expected to last another 10 years. In accounting for the business combination, Greenly decided to use push-down accounting on Lindy’s books.
During 20X7, Lindy earned net income of $99,000 and paid a dividend of $68,000. All of the inventory on hand at the end of 20X6 was sold during 20X7. During 20X8, Lindy earned net income of $101,000 and paid a dividend of $68,000.
