Question 17.3: Property, plant, and equipment
What is property, plant, and equipment on ABC’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20XX?

Question 17.4: Inventory
What is inventory on ABC’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20XX?
Answer 17.4: 96 + 32 = 128
(book value of parent’s asset + fair value of subsidiary’s asset)
Question 17.5: Long-term debt
What is long-term debt on ABC’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20XX?
Answer 17.5: 484 + 114 + 40 = 638
(book value of parent’s debt + fair value of subsidiary’s debt + new debt issued)
Question 17.6: Common stock
What is common stock + additional paid-in capital on ABC’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20XX?
Answer 17.6: 105 + 40 = 145
(common stock of parent + additional common stock issued)
Question 17.7: Retained earnings
What are retained earnings on ABC’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20XX?
Answer 17.7: 84 + 42 + 96 + 608 – 157 – 484 – 105 = 84
(retained earnings on consolidated balance sheet = retained earnings of parent, which is the balancing item for book value of assets to equal book value of liabilities + shareholders’ equity: cash + accounts receivable + inventory + property, plant, and equipment – accounts payable – long-term debt – common stock)
Question: What about the fair value of XYZ’s balance sheet items?
Answer: On the purchase date, the net fair value of XYZ’s balance sheet items is the goodwill asset and does not affect ABC’s retained earnings.
Question 17.8: Identifiable net assets
What is the fair value of XYZ’s identifiable net assets?
Answer 17.8: 21 + 6 + 32 + 251 – 39 – 114 = 157
(fair value of XYZ’s cash + accounts receivable + inventory + property, plant, and equipment – accounts payable – long-term debt)
Question 17.9: Full goodwill
What is full goodwill on ABC’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20XX?
Answer 17.9: 120 / 0.60 – 157 = 43
(Purchase price / percent bought – fair value of identifiable net assets)
Purchase price / percent bought is the price that would have been paid for all of XYZ. Full goodwill is the excess of the purchase price for the entire subsidiary over the fair value of all its identifiable net assets.
Question 17.10: Non-controlling (minority) interest for full goodwill
What is non-controlling (minority) interest for full goodwill on ABC’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20XX?
Answer 17.10: 120 × (1 – 0.60) / 0.60 = 80
(Purchase price × (1 – percent bought) / percent bought)
Question 17.11: Partial goodwill
What is partial goodwill on ABC’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20XX?
Answer 17.11: 120 – 0.60 × 157 = 25.80
(Purchase price – percent bought × fair value of identifiable net assets)
Partial goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of its identifiable net assets that have been acquired. Partial goodwill = full goodwill × percent bought: 43 × 60% = 25.80
Question 17.12: Non-controlling (minority) interest for partial goodwill
What is non-controlling (minority) interest for partial goodwill on ABC’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20XX?
Answer 17.12: (1 – 0.60) × 157 = 62.80
( (1 – percent bought) × fair value of identifiable net assets)
Note: the four goodwill values have a simple relation:
full goodwill – partial goodwill =
non-controlling (minority) interest for full goodwill – non-controlling (minority) interest for partial goodwill.
43 – 25.80 = 17.20 = 80 – 62.80 = 17.20
full goodwill – non-controlling (minority) interest for full goodwill =
partial goodwill – non-controlling (minority) interest for partial goodwill.
43 – 80 = -37.00 = 25.80 – 62.80 = -37.00
