Prism Corporation acquires the voting stock of Streetspace Inc. on January 1, 2020, for $100,000 in cash. Streetspace's book value at the date of acquisition was:

Common stock, $1.00 par                      $ 2,000

Additional paid-in capital                         4,000

Retained earnings                                6,000

Accumulated other comprehensive loss     (200)

Treasury stock                                      (100)

Total                                                  $11,700

All of Streetspace's recorded assets and liabilities are carried at fair value, but it has previously unrecorded customer-related intangible assets valued at $28,000 that are capitalizable under the requirements of ASC Topic 805. These intangibles have an estimated life of 5 years, straight-line. It is determined through impairment testing that acquired goodwill is impaired by $500 in 2020, and is unimpaired in 2021 and 2022. Customer-related intangible assets are not impaired during the three years following acquisition.

Streetspace reports net income, other comprehensive income, and declared and paid dividends as follows for 2020, 2021, and 2022:

                                                               2020                 2021                 2022

Net income                                  $8,400              $7,800           $9,300

Dividends                                      1,000                1,000            1,000
