McKenzie held land that was undervalued by $161,000 on its accounting records. During 2014, McKenzie earned a net income of $330,000 while declaring and paying cash dividends of $124,000. On January 1, 2015, Austin purchased an additional 30 percent of McKenzie for $668,100. McKenzie’s land is still undervalued on that date, but then by $183,500. Any additional excess cost was attributable to a trademark with a 10-year life for the first purchase and a 9-year life for the second. The initial 10 percent investment had been maintained at cost because fair values were not readily available. The equity method will now be applied.
