Answer #1

Total shares of Davel Corp. = 7,500

Number of shares acquired of Davel Corp.= 2,250

Percentage of shares acquired of Davel Corp. = Number of shares acquired of Davel Corp./Total shares of Davel Corp

= 2,250/7,500

= 30%

Beginning of the year investment balance = $60,000

Revenue from investment in Davel Corp. = Net income of Davel Corp.  x Percentage of common stock acquired

= 45,000 x 30%

= $13,500

Share of dividend from Davel Corp. = Dividend paid by Davel Corp. x Percentage of common stock acquired

= 15,000 x 30%

= $4,500

Balance in investment at December 31, 2020 = Beginning of the year investment balance + Revenue from investment in Davel Corp. - Share of dividend from Davel Corp.

= 60,000 + 13,500 - 4,500

= $69,000

First option is correct.

Kindly give a positive rating if you are satisfied with the answer. Feel free to ask if you have any doubt. Thanks.
