Problem 12-4 (Part Level Submission)
On July 31, 2017, Sandhill Company paid $2,700,000 to acquire all of the common stock of Conchita Incorporated, which became a division of Sandhill. Conchita reported the following balance sheet at the time of the acquisition.Current assets
$840,000
Current liabilities$570,000
Noncurrent assets2,400,000
Long-term liabilities470,000
Total assets$3,240,000
Stockholders’ equity2,200,000
Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity$3,240,000
It was determined at the date of the purchase that the fair value of the identifiable net assets of Conchita was $2,470,000. Over the next 6 months of operations, the newly purchased division experienced operating losses. In addition, it now appears that it will generate substantial losses for the foreseeable future. At December 31, 2017, Conchita reports the following balance sheet information.
Current assets
$490,000
Noncurrent assets (including goodwill recognized in purchase)2,170,000
Current liabilities(680,000
)
Long-term liabilities(480,000
)
Net assets$1,500,000
It is determined that the fair value of the Conchita Division is $1,850,000. The recorded amount for Conchita’s net assets (excluding goodwill) is the same as fair value, except for property, plant, and equipment, which has a fair value $110,000 above the carrying value.

Explanation / Answer
Answer:-
(a)
Goodwill = Excess of the cost of the division over the fair value of the identifiable assets
therefore, $2,700,000- $2,470,000= $230,000
(b) Determine the impairment loss, if any, to be recorded on December 31, 2017.
No impairment loss is recorded, because the fair value of conchita ($1,850,000) is greater than carrying value of the net assets ($1,500,000)
(c) Assume that fair value of the Conchita Division is $1,434,000 instead of $1,850,000. Determine the impairment loss, if any, to be recorded on December 31, 2017.
Implied fair value of goodwill = Fair value of division – the carrying value of the division (adjusted for fair value changes), net of goodwill:-
