Explanation / Answer

solution :-

a). Investment of Fair value method :-

= 12,000 * 20%

= $2400

=27,000 * 20%

= $ 5,400

= 17 ,000 * 20%

= $3,400

= (87,000 - 1,06,000)

= $ 19,000

= (1,03,000 - 1,06,000)

= $ 3,000

= ( 1,14,000 - 1,03,000)

= $ 11,000

= (19,000 + 2,400)

= $ 21,400

= ( 3000 + 5400)

= $ 8,400

= ( 11,000 + 3,400)

=$14,400

b).Equity method :-

= 47,000 * 20%

= 47,000 * 0.20

= $ 9,400

= 42,000 * 20%

= 42,000 * 0.20

= $8,400

63,000 * 20%

= 63,000 * 0.20

= $12,600

= (12,000 * 20%)

= $2400

=(27,000 * 20%)

= $ 5,400

= (17 ,000 * 20%)

= $3,400

=( 87,000 + 9,400-2,400)

= $94,000

= (1,06,000+ 8,400 - 5,400)

= $ 1,09,000

= (1,03,000 + 12,600 - 3,400)

= $1,12,000

20X6 20X7 20X8 Income from investment: Paid Dividend   

= 12,000 * 20%

= $2400

=27,000 * 20%

= $ 5,400

= 17 ,000 * 20%

= $3,400

Change in fair value = (amount of december 31 - amount of january 1)

= (87,000 - 1,06,000)

= $ 19,000

= (1,03,000 - 1,06,000)

= $ 3,000

= ( 1,14,000 - 1,03,000)

= $ 11,000

Total income investment = paid dividend + change in fair value

= (19,000 + 2,400)

= $ 21,400

= ( 3000 + 5400)

= $ 8,400

= ( 11,000 + 3,400)

=$14,400
