Problem 12-4

On July 31, 2017, Cullumber Company paid $2,750,000 to acquire all of the common stock of Conchita Incorporated, which became a division of Cullumber. Conchita reported the following balance sheet at the time of the acquisition. Current assets

$860,000

Current liabilities

$580,000

Noncurrent assets

2,450,000

Long-term liabilities

   Total assets

$3,310,000

Stockholders’ equity

2,250,000

   Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity

$3,310,000


It was determined at the date of the purchase that the fair value of the identifiable net assets of Conchita was $2,475,000. 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

$480,000

Noncurrent assets (including goodwill recognized in purchase)

2,170,000

Current liabilities

(700,000

)

Long-term liabilities

(500,000

)

   Net assets

$1,450,000


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 $130,000 above the carrying value.

Explanation / Answer

Compute the amount of goodwill recognized if any on july 31 2017

Amount of goodwill: Excess of cost of division over the fair value of the identifiable assets

2,750,000 - $2,475,000 = $275,000

Determine the amount of impairment loss;
