On December 31, Pacifica, Incorporated, acquired 100 percent of the voting stock of Seguros Company. Pacifica will maintain Seguros as a wholly owned subsidiary with its own legal and accounting identity. The consideration transferred to the owner of Seguros included 50,000 newly issued Pacifica common shares ($20 market value, $5 par value) and an agreement to pay an additional $130,000 cash if Seguros meets certain project completion goals by December 31 of the following year. Pacifica estimates a 50 percent probability that Seguros will be successful in meeting these goals and uses a 4 percent discount rate to represent the time value of money. Immediately prior to the acquisition, the following data for both firms were available: Revenues Expenses Net income Items Retained earnings, 1/1 Net income Dividends declared Retained earnings, 12/31 Cash Receivables and inventory Property, plant, and equipment Trademarks Total assets Liabilities Common stock Additional paid-in capital Retained earnings Total liabilities and equities Pacifica $ (1,200,000) 875,000 $ (325,000) $ (950,000) (325,000) 90,000 $ (1,185,000) $ 110,000 750,000 1,400,000 300,000 $ 2,560,000 $ (500,000) (400,000) (475,000) (1,185,000) $ (2,560,000) Seguros Book Values Seguros Fair Values 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 $ 85,000 190,000 $ 85,000 180,000 600,000 200,000 0 $ (180,000) 0 0 450,000 160,000 $ 885,000 $ (180,000) (200,000) (70,000) (435,000) $ (885,000) 0 0 In addition, Pacifica assessed a research and development project under way at Seguros to have a fair value of $100,000.
