The remaining 20% noncontrolling interest shares had an acquisition-date estimated fair value of $428,000. Sub’s acquisition-date total book value was $1,700,000. The fair value of Sub’s recorded assets and liabilities equaled their carrying amounts. However, Sub had two unrecorded assets – a trademark with an indefinite life and estimated fair value of $245,000 and several customer relationships estimated to be worth $180,000 with four-year remaining lives. Any remaining acquisition-date fair value in the Sub acquisition was considered goodwill. During 2021 Sub reported $172,000 net income and declared and paid dividends totaling $50,000.

How much of 2021 consolidated net income should be allocated to the noncontrolling interest? What amount of 2021 dividends should be allocated to the noncontrolling interest?
