Required A)
The fair value of the identifiable net assets of Summer Ltd
= Share Capital $210,000 + General reserve $6,100 + Retained earnings $75,000 + Land $5,400 ($18,000 x 30%) + Machinery $4,500 ($15,000 x 30%) + Receivable $-1,800 ($-6000 x 30%)
= $299,200
Consideration transferred = $270,000
Non-controlling interest = $66,000
Agreegate of Consideration transferred and NCI = $336,000
Total Goodwill = $336,000 – $299,200 = $36,800
Goodwill of Summer LTD
Fair value of Summer LTD = $66,000/20% = $330,000
The fair value of the identifiable net assets of Summer Ltd = $299,200
