Problem 4-9 Beams, Anthony, Bettinghaus, & Smith, Advanced Accounting, 11th ed.
Pas Corporation acquired 80 percent of Sel Corporation’s common stock on January 1, 2011, for $210,000 cash. The stockholders’ equity of Sel at this time consisted of $150,000 capital stock and $50,000 retained earnings. The difference between the fair value of Sel and the underlying equity acquired in Sel was due to a $12,500 undervaluation of Sel’s inventory, a $25,000 undervaluation of Sel’s equipment, and unrecorded patents with a 20-year life.
The undervalued inventory items were sold by Sel during 2011, and the undervalued equipment had a remaining useful life of five years. Straight-line depreciation is used.
Sel owed Pas $4,000 on accounts payable at December 31, 2011.
