September 1, 2020, Winans Corporation acquired Aumont Enterprises for a cash payment of $700,000. At the time of purchase, Aumont's balance sheet showed assets of $620,000, liabilities of $200,000, and owners' equity of $420,000. The fair value of Aumont's assets is estimated to be $800,000.

Parmelot purchased Spamalot on January 1, 2020, for $5,000,000. On the day of the acquisition Spamlot had Retained Earnings of $1,700,000, Common Stock of $1,300,000 and Additional Paid in Capital of $600,000. The book value of Spamalot’s assets and liabilities equaled their current value on that day except for a Building that had a book value of $1,000,000 and a current value of $1,400,000 on that day and a 10-year remaining life. Required:1) Prepare the elimination entry necessary to prepare the consolidated financial statements as of January 1, 2020 (the day of acquisition). 2) Prepare the elimination entries necessary to prepare the consolidated financial statements one year later (on December 31, 2020), assuming that Spamalot earned $90,000 for the year. 3) Assume that on January 1, 2021, $300,000 of the Goodwill is determined to be impaired. Prepare the necessary journal entry to write this off by the Parent.
On January 1, 2020, Alison, Inc., paid $77,000 for a 40 percent interest in Holister Corporation’s common stock. This investee had assets with a book value of $223,000 and liabilities of $94,500. A patent held by Holister having a $10,800 book value was actually worth $52,800. This patent had a six-year remaining life. Any further excess cost associated with this acquisition was attributed to goodwill. During 2020, Holister earned income of $48,700 and declared and paid dividends of $16,000. In 2021, it had income of $74,500 and dividends of $21,000. During 2021, the fair value of Allison’s investment in Holister had risen from $90,580 to $100,180.   Assuming Alison uses the equity method, what balance should appear in the Investment in Holister account as of December 31, 2021? Assuming Alison uses fair-value accounting, what income from the investment in Holister should be reported for 2021?
