Explanation / Answer

Fair Value of Assets = (70,000 + 210,000 + .. 90,000) = $880,000
Fair Value of Liabilities = $420,000

Net Worth of Vicker = Fair Value of Assets - Fair Value of Liabilities
= 880,000 - 420,000 = $460,000

Fair Value of Consideration = 12,000 * 47 = $564,000

Goodwill = Fair Value of Consideration - Net Worth of Vicker
= 564,000 - 460,000 = $104,000
