On January 1, 2016, Monica Company acquired 70 percent of Young Company’s outstanding common stock for $770,000. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest at the acquisition date was $330,000.

Young reported stockholders’ equity accounts on that date as follows:

Common stock—$10 par value $ 200,000
Additional paid-in capital 60,000
Retained earnings 620,000

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 $80,000. 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 40 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 $ 90,000 $ 31,000
2017 110,000 33,000
2018 120,000 39,000

In addition, Monica sold Young several pieces of fully depreciated equipment on January 1, 2017, for $57,000. The equipment had originally cost Monica $92,000. Young plans to depreciate these assets over a six-year period.

In 2018, Young earns a net income of $190,000 and declares and pays $60,000 in cash dividends. These figures increase the subsidiary's Retained Earnings to a $950,000 balance at the end of 2018. During this same year, Monica reported dividend income of $42,000 and an investment account containing the initial value balance of $770,000. No changes in Young's common stock accounts have occurred since Monica's acquisition.

  1. Prepare the 2018 consolidation worksheet entries for Monica and Young.

  2. Compute the net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest for 2018.

On January 1, 2017, Stream Company acquired 27 percent of the outstanding voting shares of Q-Video, Inc., for $716,000. Q-Video manufactures specialty cables for computer monitors. On that date, Q-Video reported assets and liabilities with book values of $1.6 million and $800,000, respectively. A customer list compiled by Q-Video had an appraised value of $306,000, although it was not recorded on its books. The expected remaining life of the customer list was 5 years with a straight-line amortization deemed appropriate. Any remaining excess cost was not identifiable with any particular asset and thus was considered goodwill.

Q-Video generated net income of $304,000 in 2017 and a net loss of $112,000 in 2018. In each of these two years, Q-Video declared and paid a cash dividend of $18,000 to its stockholders.

During 2017, Q-Video sold inventory that had an original cost of $104,000 to Stream for $160,000. Of this balance, $80,000 was resold to outsiders during 2017, and the remainder was sold during 2018. In 2018, Q-Video sold inventory to Stream for $170,000. This inventory had cost only $136,000. Stream resold $100,000 of the inventory during 2018 and the rest during 2019.

For 2017 and then for 2018, compute the amount that Stream should report as income from its investment in Q-Video in its external financial statements under the equity method. (Enter your answers in whole dollars and not in millions. Do not round intermediate calculations.)
