Question

On January 1, 2023, Mona, Incorporated, acquired 80 percent of Lisa Company’s common stock as well as 60 percent of its preferred shares. Mona paid $82,000 in cash for the preferred stock, with a call value of 110 percent of the $50 per share par value. The remaining 40 percent of the preferred shares traded at a $51,000 fair value. Mona paid $588,000 for the common stock. At the acquisition date, the noncontrolling interest in the common stock had a fair value of $147,000. The excess fair value over Lisa’s book value was attributed to franchise contracts of $74,000. This intangible asset is being amortized over a 40-year period. Lisa pays all preferred stock dividends (a total of $25,000 per year) on an annual basis. During 2023, Lisa’s book value increased by $74,000.

On January 2, 2023, Mona acquired one-half of Lisa's outstanding bonds payable to reduce the business combination's debt position. Lisa's bonds had a face value of $100,000 and paid cash interest of 8 percent per year. These bonds had been issued to the public to yield 10 percent. Interest is paid each December 31. On January 2, 2023, these bonds had a total $93,660 carrying amount. Mona paid $53,465, indicating an effective interest rate of 6 percent.

On January 3, 2023, Mona sold Lisa fixed assets that had originally cost $117,000 but had accumulated depreciation of $60,000 when transferred. The transfer was made at a price of $154,000. These assets were estimated to have a remaining useful life of 10 years.
