Constructing the Consolidated Balance Sheet at Acquisition On January 1 of the current year, Healy Company purchased all of the common shares of Miller Company for $500,000 cash. Balance sheets of the two firms immediately after the acquisition follow: During purchase negotiations, Miller's plant assets were appraised at $425,000 and all of its remaining assets and liabilities were appraised at values approximating their book values. Healy also concluded that an additional $85,000 (for goodwill) demanded by Miller's shareholders was warranted because Miller's earning power was better than the industry average.
