Chapter 01 - Intercorporate Acquisitions and Investments in Other Entities
E1-2 Multiple-Choice Questions on Recording Business Combinations
[AICPA Adapted]
1. a – The excess sum of the consideration given over the sum of the fair value of identifiable
assets less liabilities equals goodwill.
(b) Incorrect. Assets considered only need be identifiable, not just tangible. For example,
patents would be identifiable, but not tangible.
(c) Incorrect. Assets considered only have to be identifiable. This includes both tangible
and intangible identifiable assets.
(d) Incorrect. The calculation of goodwill requires a remeasurement of the assets and
liabilities at fair value, not book value.

E1-3 Multiple-Choice Questions on Reported Balances [AICPA Adapted]
1. d – $2,900,000. New APIC Balance = existing APIC on Poe’s books + APIC from new stock
issuance. (200,000*($18-$10) + $1,300,000 = $2,900,000)
E1-4 Multiple-Choice Questions Involving Account Balances
1. c – When the parent creates the subsidiary, the equipment is transferred at cost with the
accompanying accumulated depreciation (which in effect is the book value).
($100,000/10 = $10,000 per year * 4 = $40,000.)
(a) Incorrect. When a subsidiary is created internally, the assets are transferred as they
were on the parent’s books (carrying value). Fair value is not considered.
(b) Incorrect. This is the proper carrying value of the asset, but it should be recorded at
cost with the accompanying accumulated depreciation.
(d) Incorrect. When a subsidiary is created internally, the assets are transferred as they
were on the parent’s books (carrying value).
