  1. On July 1, 2015, Griffey Corporation purchased Johnson Company by paying $287,500 cash and issuing a $75,000 note payable to Steve Johnson. At July 1, 2015, the balance sheet of Johnson Company was as follows.

Cash $ 37,500 Accounts payable $150,000

Receivables 67,500 Mortgage Payable 225,000

Accum. Depr Bld (36,500)

Equipment 152,500

The recorded amounts all approximate current (market and book) values except for land (worth $145,000), inventory (worth $93,750), and copyrights (worth $11,250).
