I need some confirmation here... Please and Thanks:
Treadway Corporation purchases Hooker, Inc. on January 1, 2001. The Parent pays more than the fair market value of the subsidiary’s net assets. On that date, Treadway has equipment with a book value of $420,000 and a fair market value of $530,000. Hooker has equipment with a book value of $330,000 and a fair market value of $390,000. Hooker is going to use push-down accounting. Immediately after the acquisition, what Equipment account appears on Hooker’s separate balance sheet and on the consolidated balance sheet?
a $330,000 and $750,000
b $330,000 and $860,000
c $390,000 and $810,000
d $390,000 and $920,000
e $330,000 and $420,000
The answer I turned in was (c). Is there someone out there that can confirm that I am right or not in giving this as my answer. And if not what is the correct answer. Thanks!
