Question - On July 1, 2013, Killearn Company acquired 106,000 of the outstanding shares of Shaun Company for $13 per share. This acquisition gave Killearn a 40 percent ownership of Shaun and allowed Killearn to significantly influence the investee's decisions.

As of July 1, 2013, the investee had assets with a book value of $3 million and liabilities of $509,500. At the time, Shaun held equipment appraised at $122,500 above book value; it was considered to have a seven-year remaining life with no salvage value. Shaun also held a copyright with a five-year remaining life on its books that was undervalued by $642,500. Any remaining excess cost was attributable to goodwill. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method. Killearn applies the equity method for its investment in Shaun.

Shaun's policy is to declare and pay a $1 per share cash dividend every April 1 and October 1. Shaun's income, earned evenly throughout each year, was $578,000 in 2013, $603,400 in 2014, and $666,600 in 2015.

In addition, Killearn sold inventory costing $106,200 to Shaun for $177,000 during 2014. Shaun resold $114,000 of this inventory during 2014 and the remaining $63,000 during 2015.
