Answer #1

Ans: The amount of Clark's building that would be reported in a December 31,2020: $1200 Building would be reported as per the Fair Value in Consolidated Balance Sheet :$1,200

2. Goodwill= Purchase consideration - Net assets

Net Assets= Total Assets- Liabilities

Total Assets= Cash + Account Receivable+ Inventory+ Building + Equipment+ land

=> 500+600+ 900+1,200+ 1,350+1,300

=> 5,850

Liabilities= Long term Liabilities+ Accounts payable

=> 1,750+ 400

=> 2,150

Net assets= 5,850-2,150

=> 3,700

Goodwill at Jan 1,2020= 4,100-3,700

=> $400
