Question - Mighty Company purchased a 60 percent interest in Lowly Company on January 1, 2020, for $479,100 in cash. Lowly's book value at that date was reported as $682,500, and the fair value of the noncontrolling interest was assessed at $319,400. Any excess acquisition-date fair value over Lowly's book value is assigned to trademarks to be amortized over 20 years. Subsequently, on January 1, 2021, Lowly acquired a 20 percent interest in Mighty. The price of $294,000 was equivalent to 20 percent of Mighty's book and fair value.
Neither company has paid dividends since these acquisitions occurred. On January 1, 2021, Lowly's book value was $901,500, a figure that rises to $945,250 (common stock of $300,000 and retained earnings of $645,250) by year-end. Mighty's book value was $1.47 million at the beginning of 2021 and $1.57 million (common stock of $1 million and retained earnings of $570,000) at December 31, 2021.
