Consolidation workpapers (upstream sales, noncontrolling interest) Pol Corporation purchased a 90 percent interest in San Corporation on December 31, 2010, for $2,700,000 cash, when San had capital stock of $2,000,000 and retained earnings of $500,000. All San's assets and liabilities were recorded at their fair values when Pol acquired its interest. The excess of fair value over book value is due to previously unrecorded patents and is being amortized over a 10-year period.

Pol sells the merchandise acquired from San at 150 percent of its purchase price from San.
