Homework Answers

Answer #1

1) Calculation of income to be recognized in 2011 as a result of investment:

Particulars Amount
Share of Net income(80,000*30%) $24,000

Less: Amortization of equipment in excess of book value

[(160,000-60,000)/5 years * 30%]

$6,000
Amount of income to be recognized $18,000

Therefore the correct option is (d)

2) Pail's investment in Shovel stock to be reported in the consolidated balance sheet = $0

Therefore the correct option is (a)

3) Calculation

Paris's net assets book value $900,000
Less: Investment in subsidiary $520,000
Berlin's net assets book value excluding investment $380,000
