Answer 1

5. answer is option D) $1,125

Excess fair value amortization of equipment = (1250-1000)/2 = 125

Amount of Hurley's equipment that would be reported in a December 31, 2010 = 1250-125 = 1125

6. answer is option C) $1,725

Allocation of reduced value of long term liabilities = (1800-1700)/4 = 25

Amount of Hurley's long term liabilities that would be reported in a December 31, 2010 = 1700+25 = 1725

7. answer is option C) $1,320

Allocation of reduced value of buildings = (1500-1200)/6 = 60

Amount of Hurley's buildings that would be reported in a December 31, 2011 = 1200+(2*60) = 1320

8. answer is option B) $1,000

Amount of Hurley's equipment that would be reported in a December 31, 2011 = amount on December 31, 2010-annual amortization = 1125-125 = 1000
