On January 1, 2016, Monica Company acquired 70 percent of Young Company’s outstanding common stock for $658,000. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest at the acquisition date was $282,000. Young reported stockholders’ equity accounts on that date as follows:

Common stock—$10 par value $ 300,000
Additional paid-in capital 40,000
Retained earnings 460,000

In establishing the acquisition value, Monica appraised Young's assets and ascertained that the accounting records undervalued a building (with a five-year remaining life) by $40,000. Any remaining excess acquisition-date fair value was allocated to a franchise agreement to be amortized over 10 years.

During the subsequent years, Young sold Monica inventory at a 30 percent gross profit rate. Monica consistently resold this merchandise in the year of acquisition or in the period immediately following. Transfers for the three years after this business combination was created amounted to the following:

Year Transfer Price Inventory Remaining
at Year-End
(at transfer price)
2016 $ 70,000 $ 15,000
2017 90,000 17,000
2018 100,000 23,000

In addition, Monica sold Young several pieces of fully depreciated equipment on January 1, 2017, for $41,000. The equipment had originally cost Monica $60,000. Young plans to depreciate these assets over a 5-year period.

In 2018, Young earns a net income of $190,000 and declares and pays $50,000 in cash dividends. These figures increase the subsidiary's Retained Earnings to a $790,000 balance at the end of 2018.

Monica employs the equity method of accounting. Hence, it reports $127,340 investment income for 2018 with an Investment account balance of $821,770. Under these circumstances, prepare the worksheet entries required for the consolidation of Monica Company and Young Company.

On July 1, 2017, Bramble Ltd., a publicly listed company, acquired assets from Sheffield Ltd. On the transaction date, a reliable, independent valuator assessed the fair values of these assets as follows: Manufacturing plant (building #1) $399,930 Storage warehouse (building #2) 209,860 Machinery (in building #1) 75,000 Machinery (in building #2) 44,860 The buildings are owned by the company, and the land that the buildings are situated on is owned by the local municipality and is provided free of charge to the owner of the buildings as a stimulus to encourage local employment. In exchange for the acquisition of these assets, Bramble issued 145,900 common shares. Bramble shares are thinly traded, and in the most recent sale of Bramble's shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange, 520 shares were sold for $5 per share. At the time of acquisition, both buildings were considered to have an expected remaining useful life of 10 years, the machinery in building #1 was expected to have a remaining useful life of 3 years, and the machinery in building #2 was expected to have a useful life of 9 years. Bramble uses straight-line depreciation with no residual values. At December 31, 2017, Bramble fiscal year end, Bramble recorded the correct depreciation amounts for the six months that the assets were in use. An independent appraisal concluded that the assets had the following fair values: Manufacturing plant (building #1) $386,830 Storage warehouse (building #2) 177,810 At December 31, 2018, Bramble once again retained an independent appraiser and determined that the fair value of the assets was: Manufacturing plant (building #1) $339,970 Storage warehouse (building #2) 159,500 Prepare the journal entries required for 2017 and 2018, assuming that the buildings are accounted for under the revaluation model (using the asset adjustment method), and that the machinery is accounted for under the cost model.
