Transcribed Image Text:On January 1, 2023, Playtel Inc. acquired all of the stock of San Jose Cable for $450 million in cash. At the date of acquisition, San Jose's shareholders' equity accounts were as follows (in
thousands):
Common stock, $1 par
Additional paid-in capital
Retained deficit
Treasury stock
Total
$9,000
54,000
(1,800)
(900)
$60,300
Both companies have a December 31 year-end. At the date of acquisition, San Jose's reported net assets had book values approximating fair value. However, it had previously
unreported indefinite-life identifiable intangibles valued at $117 million, meeting ASC Topic 805 requirements for capitalization. Impairment losses in 2023 for identifiable intangibles
were $900,000. Goodwill from this acquisition was not impaired in 2023. San Jose reported net income of $5.0 million in 2023, and paid no dividends. Playtel uses the complete equity
method to report its investment in San Jose on its own books.
It is now December 31, 2024, two years since the acquisition. In 2024, San Jose reported net income of $5.0 million and declared and paid dividends of $720,000. Impairment losses on
the identifiable intangibles were $1.8 million, and goodwill was impaired by $1,080,000.
