Albuquerque, Inc., acquired 27,000 shares of Marmon Company several years ago for $900,000. At the acquisition date, Marmon reported a book value of $980,000, and Albuquerque assessed the fair value of the noncontrolling interest at $100,000. Any excess of acquisition-date fair value over book value was assigned to broadcast licenses with indefinite lives. Since the acquisition date and until this point, Marmon has issued no additional shares. No impairment has been recognized for the broadcast licenses.

At the present time, Marmon reports $1,070,000 as total stockholders’ equity, which is broken down as follows:

Common stock ($10 par value) $ 300,000
Additional paid-in capital 370,000
Retained earnings 400,000
Total $ 1,070,000

View the following as independent situations:

  1. a. & b. Marmon sells 15,000 and 6,000 shares of previously unissued common stock to the public for $40 and $26 per share. Albuquerque purchased none of this stock. What journal entry should Albuquerque make to recognize the impact of this stock transaction?

On January 1, 2018, Marshall Company acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common stock of Tucker...

On January 1, 2018, Marshall Company acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common stock of Tucker Company. To acquire these shares, Marshall issued $313,000 in long-term liabilities and 20,000 shares of common stock having a par value of $1 per share but a fair value of $10 per share. Marshall paid $23,000 to accountants, lawyers, and brokers for assistance in the acquisition and another $8,000 in connection with stock issuance costs.

Prior to these transactions, the balance sheets for the two companies were as follows:

Marshall Company
Book Value
Tucker Company
Book Value
Cash $ 87,700 $ 33,200
Receivables 298,000 125,000
Inventory 414,000 238,000
Land 206,000 212,000
Buildings (net) 463,000 276,000
Equipment (net) 223,000 79,500
Accounts payable (195,000 ) (60,900 )
Long-term liabilities (500,000 ) (313,000 )
Common stock—$1 par value (110,000 )
Common stock—$20 par value (120,000 )
Additional paid-in capital (360,000 ) 0
Retained earnings, 1/1/18 (525,700 ) (469,800 )

Note: Parentheses indicate a credit balance.

In Marshall’s appraisal of Tucker, it deemed three accounts to be undervalued on the subsidiary’s books: Inventory by $7,650, Land by $28,800, and Buildings by $37,000. Marshall plans to maintain Tucker’s separate legal identity and to operate Tucker as a wholly owned subsidiary.

a) Determine the amounts that Marshall Company would report in its postacquisition balance sheet. In preparing the postacquisition balance sheet, any required adjustments to income accounts from the acquisition should be closed to Marshall’s retained earnings. Other accounts will also need to be added or adjusted to reflect the journal entries Marshall prepared in recording the acquisition.

b) To verify the answers found in part (a), prepare a worksheet to consolidate the balance sheets of these two companies as of January 1, 2018.
