Answer:

The gain/loss on the sale of the 15,000 shares is $20,000

Explanation:

The value of the investment as at the end of 2018 using the equity method is computed thus:

Note that 30% of 100,000 shares=30,000 shares

ending value =initial investment+share of profit-share of dividends

ending value =$1,500,000+($300,000*30%)-($100,000*30%)

ending value=$1560000

gain/(loss)=$800,000-($1560000 *15000/30000)

gain/(loss)=$20,000

Answer:

c. $33,000

Explanation:

Goodwill = Consideration paid + Fair value of non controlling interests - Fair value of net identifiable assets

where,

Fair value of net identifiable assets = Book value of acquired company - Overvalued plant assets + Unreported identifiable intangible assets

= $25,000 - $6,000 + $10,000

= $29,000

So, the goodwill amount is

= $40,000 + $22,000 - $29,000

= $33,000
