$20,000 in SoftPlus, a variable interest entity. In contractual agreements
completed on that date, PanTech established itself as the primary beneficiary
of SoftPlus. Previously, PanTech had no equity interest in SoftPlus. Immediately
after PanTech’s investment, SoftPlus presents the following balance sheet:
Cash $ 20,000 Long-term
debt $120,000
Marketing software 140,000 Non-controlling
interest 60,000
Computer equipment 40,000 PanTech equity interest 20,000
Total assets $200,000 Total
liabilities and equity 200,000
Each of the above amounts represents
an assessed fair value at December 31, 2013, except for the marketing software.
a.If the marketing software was
undervalued by $20,000, what amounts for SoftPlus would appear in PanTech’s

On January 1, 2012, Travers Company
acquired 90 percent of Yarrow Company’s outstanding stock for $720,000. The 10
percent non-controlling interest had an assessed fair value of $80,000 on that
date. Any acquisition-date excess fair value over book value was attributed to
an unrecorded customer list developed by Yarrow with a remaining life of 15
years. On the same date, Yarrow acquired an 80 percent interest in Stookey
Company for $344,000. At the acquisition date, the 20 percent non-controlling
interest fair value was $86,000. Any excess fair value was attributed to a
fully amortized copyright that had a remaining life of 10 years. Although both
investments are accounted for using the initial value method, neither Yarrow
nor Stookey have distributed dividends since the acquisition date. Travers has
a policy to pay cash dividends each year equal to 40 percent of operating
earnings. Reported income totals for 2012 follow:
Travers Company . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . $300,000

Following are the 2013 financial
statements for these three companies. Stookey has transferred numerous amounts
of inventory to Yarrow since the takeover amounting to $80,000 (2012) and
$100,000 (2013). These transactions include the same markup applicable to
Stookey’s outside sales. In each year, Yarrow carried 20 percent of this
inventory into the succeeding year before disposing of it. An effective tax
rate of 45 percent is applicable to all companies.
