Palm Resorts acquired its 70 percent interest in Sun City on January 1, 2017, for $41,750,000. The fair value of the 30 percent noncontrolling interest at the date of acquisition was $14,750,000. Sun City’s date-of-acquisition reported net assets of $5,000,000 were carried at amounts approximating fair value, but it had unrecorded identifiable intangibles, capitalizable per ASC Topic 805, valued at $7,500,000. These intangibles are determined to have limited lives, amortized on a straight-line basis over five years. It is now December 31, 2020, and Sun City reports net income of $10,000,000.
