(B) Jiang Company purchased a fast-food Company for $1,400,000. The fair market values of the assets and liabilities purchased were as follows. Required: Calculate the amount of goodwill purchased
Furniture $20,000
Equipment 300,000
Land 200,000
Building 650,000
Accounts payable 30,000
Bank loans 70,000].
Formula for Goodwill is:
Goodwill = Purchase price paid - Fair value of net assets acquired
Purchase price paid (given) = $1400000
Fair value of net assets acquired = Fair value of assets acquired - Fair value of liabilities assumed
Fair value of net assets acquired = ($20000 + $300000 + $200000 + $650000) - ($30000 + $70000)
Fair value of net assets acquired = $1170000 - $100000 = $1070000
Now,
Goodwill = Purchase price paid - Fair value of net assets acquired
putting the values in the above formula, we get,
Goodwill = $1400000 - $1070000 = $330000
