Metlock Golf Inc. was formed on July 1, 2014, when Matt Magilke purchased the Golf School Company. Golf School Company provides video golf instruction at kiosks in shopping malls. Matt Magilke plans to integrate the instructional business into his golf equipment and accessory stores. Matt Magilke paid $770,000 cash for all the net assets of Golf School Company. At the time, Golf School Company's balance sheet reported assets of $650,000 and liabilities of $200,000 (thus owners' equity was $450,000). The fair value of Golf School Company's assets was estimated to be $800,000. Included in the assets is the Golf School Company trade name with a fair value of $10,000 and a copyright on some instructional books with a fair value of $24,000.
