Assume that, on January 1, 2021, Carnival Corporation paid $2,320,000 for its investment in 33,000 shares of Sphinx Inc. Further, assume that Sphinx has 110,000 total shares of stock issued and estimates an eight-year remaining useful life and straight-line depreciation with no residual value for its depreciable assets.

At January 1, 2021, the book value of Sphinx's identifiable net assets was $7,340,000, and the fair value of Sphinx was $10,000,000. The difference between Sphinx's fair value and the book value of its identifiable net assets is attributable to $1,850,000 of land and the remainder to depreciable assets. Goodwill was not part of this transaction.

The following information pertains to Sphinx during 2021:
































Net Income$400,000
Dividends declared and paid$240,000
Market price of common stock on 12/31/2021$80/share
