Question

On January 1, 2019, Uncle Company purchased 80 percent of Nephew Company's capital stock for $584,000 in cash and other assets. Nephew had a book value of $700,000, and the 20 percent noncontrolling interest fair value was $146,000 on that date. On January 1, 2021, Nephew had acquired 30 percent of Uncle for $354,250. Uncle's appropriately adjusted book value as of that date was $1,147,500.

 

Separate operating income figures (not including investment income) for these two companies follow. In addition, Uncle declares and pays $25,000 in dividends to shareholders each year and Nephew distributes $6,000 annually. Any excess fair-value allocations are amortized over a 10-year period.
