Please include the answer to be prepared in an excel spreadsheet, including any formulas that involve other excel cells.

Excel Spreadsheet Project Alternative Investment Methods, Goodwill Impairment, and Consolidated Financial Statements In this project, you are to provide an analysis of afternative accounting methods for controlling interest investments and subsequent effects on consolidated reporting using Excel. Modeling in Excel helps you quickly assess the impact of alternative accounting methods on consolidated financial reporting, and helps you develop a better understanding of accounting for combined reporting entities Consolidated Worksheet Preparation You will be creating and entering formulas to complete four worksheets. The first objective is to demonstrate the effeet of different methods of accounting for the investments (equity, initial value, and partial equity) on the parent company's trial balance and on the consolidated worksheet subsequent to acquisition. The second objective is to show the effect on consolidated balances and key finaneial ratios of recognizing a goodwill impairment loss. The project requires preparation of the following four separate worksheets: a. Consolidated information worksheet (follows). b. Equity method consolidation worksheet. r. Initial value method consolidation worksheet. d. Partial equity method consolidation worksheet. In formulating your solution, each worksheet should link direetly to the first worksheet. Aiso, feel free to create supplemental schedules to enhance the capabilities of your worksheet. Project Scenario Pecos Company acquired 100 percent of Suaro's outstanding stock for $1,450,000 cash on January 1, 2020, when Suaro had the following balance sheet: At the acquisition date, the fair values of each identifiable asset and liability that differed from book value were as follows: - Although at acquisition date Pccos expected future benefits from Suaro's inprocess rescarch and development (R\&D), by the end of 2020 it became clear that the research project was a failure with no future economic benefits. - During 2020, Suaro carns $75,000 and pays no dividends, - Selected amounts from Pecos's and Suaro's separate financial statements at December 31, 2021, are presented in the consolidated information worksheet. All consolidated worksheets are to be prepared as of December 31,2021 , two years subsequent to acquisition. - Pecos's January 1, 2021, Retained Earnings balance-before any effect from Suaro's 2020 income-is $(930,000) (credit balance). - Pecos has 500,000 common shares outstanding for EPS calculations and reported $2,943,100 for consolidated assets at the beginning of the period. The following is the consolidated information worksheet. \begin{tabular}{|c|l|c|c|} \hline 37 & Book value & 476,000 & \\ \hline 38 & Excess initial value & 974,000 & Amortizations \\ \hline 39 & to land & (10,000) & 2020 \\ \hline 40 & to brand name & 60,000 & ? \\ \hline 41 & to software & 100,000 & 7 \\ \hline 42 & to IPR\&D & 300,000 & 2021 \\ \hline 43 & to goodwill & 524,000 & ? \\ \hline 44 & & & ? \\ \hline 45 & Suaro's RE changes & Income & ? \\ \hline 46 & 2020 & 75,000 & ? \\ \hline 47 & 2021 & 165,000 & Dividends \\ \hline \end{tabular} Complete the four worksheets as follows: 1. Input the consolidated information worksheet provided and complete the fair-value allocation schedule by computing the excess amortizations for 2020 and 2021. 2. Using separate worksheets, prepare Pecos's trial balances for each of the indicated accounting methods (cquity, initial value, and partial equity). Use only formulas for the Investment in Suaro, the Income of Suaro, and Retained Earnings accounts. 3. Using references to other cells only (either from the consolidated information worksheet or from the separate method sheets), prepare for each of the three consolidation worksheets: - Adjustments and eliminations. - Consolidated balances 4. Calculate and present the effects of a 2021 total goodwill impairment loss on the following ratios for the consolidated entity: - Earnings per share (EPS) - Return on assets - Return on equity - Debt to equity Your worksheets should have the capability to adjust immediately for the possibility that all acquisition goodwill can be considered impaired in 2021 . 5. Prepare a report that describes and discisses the following worksheet results: 4. The efiects of alternative investment accounting methods on the parent's trial balances and the final consolidation flgures. b.
