Hi I need help with the assignment attached, thanks

On January 1, 2017, Wildhorse Co. purchased 25,000 shares (a 10% interest) in Elton John Corp. for $1,290,000. At the time, the book value and the fair value of John's net assets were $14,300,000. On July 1, 2018, Wildhorse paid $2,910,000 for 50,000 additional shares of John common stock, which represented a 20% investment in John. The fair value of John's identifiable assets net of liabilities was equal to their carrying amount of $15,500,000. As a result of this transaction, Wildhorse owns 30% of John and can exercise significant influence over John's operating and financial policies. (Any excess fair value is attributed to goodwill.)
