In preparation for a possible business combination, a team of experts from Power Boogie Musical made a thorough examination and audit of Shoot-Toot Tuba. They found that Shoot-Toot’s assets and liabilities were correctly stated except that they estimated uncollectible accounts at $1,400. The experts also estimated the market value of the inventory at $35,000 and the market value of the plant and equipment at $500,000.

The business combination took place on January 1, 20X6, and on that date Power Boogie Musical acquired all the assets and liabilities of Shoot-Toot Tuba. On that date, Power Boogie’s common stock was selling for $55 per share.


Required
