The following two tables are used in all the following questions. Thus, part of the following questions involve determining exactly what you need for each question. Please assume that for GDP calculations, only two things are produced in this economy: houses (a good) and dog walking (a service). Please ignore coffee for the GDP calculations. Also, assume that 2018 is the base year for GDP calculations. The base year for the CPI is not given.

Year Houses Produced (millions) Average House Price Dogs Walked (millions) Average Dog Walking Fee
2018 1.00 $200,000 1,000 $25.00

On January 1, 2016, Percy, Inc., acquired 70 percent of Sledge's outstanding voting stock. At that date, $70,000 of the acquisition-date fair value was assigned to unrecorded contracts (with a 20-year life) and $30,000 to an undervalued building (with a 10-year remaining life).

In 2017, Sledge sold inventory costing $12,500 to Percy for $25,000. Of this merchandise, Percy continued to hold $4,000 at year-end. During 2018, Sledge transferred inventory costing $15,000 to Percy for $30,000. Percy still held half of these items at year-end.

Percy has properly applied the equity method to the investment in Sledge.
