On January 1, 2020, ABC Co. paid $800,000 to acquire common shares of XYZ Co., which

represented 30% of XYZ Co.’s shares outstanding. The value of XYZ’s net assets was

$1,850,000 on that date. The excess of the purchase price over ABC’s share of XYZ’s net assets

is attributed to unrecorded intangibles with a 20-year life. XYZ earned net income and

comprehensive income of $400,000 in 2020 and paid dividends of $80,000. The investment in

XYZ had a fair value of $1,025,000 at December 31, 2020. XYZ incurred a net loss and

comprehensive loss of $425,000 in 2021 and paid no dividends. At December 31, 2021, the fair

value of the investment was $720,000 and the recoverable amount was $765,000. Assume that
