On January 1, 2011, Paxton Company purchased a 70% interest in Sagon Company for $1,300,000, at which time Sagon Company had retained earnings of $500,000 and capital stock of $1,000,000. On January 1, 2011, the fair value of the assets and liabilities of Sagon Company was equal to their book value except for bonds payable. Sagon Company had outstanding a $1,000,000 issue of 6% bonds that were issued at par and that mature on January 1, 2016. Interest on the bonds is payable annually, and the yield rate on similar bonds on January 1, 2011, is 10%. Paxton Company reported net income from independent operations of $300,000 in 2011 and $250,000 in 2012. Sagon Company reported net income of $100,000 in 2011 and $120,000 in 2012. Neither company paid or declared dividends in 2011 or 2012.
