Explanation / Answer

Solution:-

$2,70,000

= 4,99,450 - 2,70,000

= $2,29,450

= 30,000 - 61750

= $31,750

= 57,100 - 70,000

= - $12,900

$1,20,800

=( 31,750 + 1,20,800 + 34,250 + 9,200 - 12,900) - (229450)

= - $46,350

Assets and liabilities :-

= 10,600 + 9,750

= $20,350

= 104,000 + 66,500

=$1,70,500

= 1,33,500 + 1,03,000

= $2,37,000

= 241000 + 30000 + 31750

= $3,02,750

= 6,13,000 + 1,75,400

= $788400

= 314000 + 70000 - 12900

= $3,71,100

= (20,350 + 170500 + 302750 + 788400 + 371100 + 120800 + 34250  - $46,350

= $1,998,800

= 89,700 + 68,500

=$1,58,200

= 5,11,500 + 96,000 + 9200

= $6,16,700

Consolidated balance sheet:-

Goodwill calculation Amount Sales consideration $4,99,450 Book value(approximately )

$2,70,000

Excess of fair value over book value

= 4,99,450 - 2,70,000

= $2,29,450

Computer software

= 30,000 - 61750

= $31,750

Equipment

= 57,100 - 70,000

= - $12,900

Client contracts

$1,20,800

In process research and development $34,250 Note payable $9200 Goodwill  

=( 31,750 + 1,20,800 + 34,250 + 9,200 - 12,900) - (229450)

= - $46,350
