Question 1.0 (King Ltd and Smith Ltd)
Acquisition Analysis (1 July 2018)
To determine goodwill arising from the acquisition of Smith Ltd. By King Ltd.
Cost of Investment: $750,000
Net Assets of Smith Ltd. At Acquisition:
Share Capital:110,000 shares * $3 = $330,000
Retained Earnings: $130,000
Total Equity: $330,000 + $130,000 = $460,000
Fair Value Adjustments: (Assets were revalued at acquisition)
Patent: $45,000 (FV) - $25,000 (CA) = $20,000 increase
Land: $160,000 (FV) - $150,000 (CA) = $10,000 increase
Machinery: $170,000 (FV) - $160,000 (CA) = $10,000 increase
Total Fair Value of Net Assets: $460,000 (Equity) + $20,000 (Patent) + $10,000 (Land) + $10,000 (Machinery) = $500,000
Goodwill Calculation:
