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:

Goodwill = Cost of Investment - Total Fair Value of Net Assets

Goodwill = $750,000 - $500,000 = $250,000
