QuestionAt December 31, 2023, Palestine Commercial Bank division reports the following balance sheet information: \begin{tabular}{|l|c|} \hline Current assets & $800,000\$ 800,000 \\ \hline Noncurrent assets & 2,600,0002,600,000 \\ \hline Goodwill & 300,000 \\ \hline Current liabilities & (700,000)(700,000) \\ \hline Long-term liabilities & (500,000)\underline{(500,000)} \\ \hline Net assets & $2,500,000\$ 2,500,000 \\ \hline \end{tabular}
It is determined that the fair value of Palestine Commercial Bank division is $3,500,000undefined\$ 3,500, \overrightarrow{000} at December 31, 2023. The recorded amount for Palestine Commercial Bank's division net assets is different for property, plant, and equipment, which has a fair value of $350,000\$ 350,000 abov ) the carrying value, for csurrent liabilities which have a fair value of $250,000\$ 250,000 below the carrying value, and for long-term liabilities which have a fair value of $200,000\$ 200,000 above the carrying value 1) The amount of implied goodwill is $\$ \qquad 900,000 . 2) Prepare the journal entry (if any) to record goodwill impairment at Dec. 31, 2023. \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|} \hline Account & DR & CR \\ \hline Dro Loss un impowiwent & 600,000 & \\ \hline Cno Gow & & 600,000 \\ \hline \end{tabular}

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The fair value of the division is given as \$3,500,000.
2. The carrying value of net assets is \$2,500,000.
3. Adjustments to fair value are needed for property, plant, and equipment, current liabilities, and long-term liabilities.
4. The implied goodwill is calculated based on the fair value of the division minus the adjusted net assets.
5. Goodwill impairment is recorded if the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the implied goodwill.

STEP 2

1. Calculate the adjusted net assets.
2. Determine the implied goodwill.
3. Compare the carrying amount of goodwill with the implied goodwill.
4. Prepare the journal entry for goodwill impairment, if necessary.

STEP 3

Calculate the adjustments to net assets:
- Property, plant, and equipment adjustment: +350,000 +350,000 - Current liabilities adjustment: 250,000 -250,000 - Long-term liabilities adjustment: +200,000 +200,000
Calculate the adjusted net assets:
\[ \text{Adjusted Net Assets} = 2,500,000 + 350,000 - 250,000 + 200,000 = 2,800,000 $

STEP 4

Calculate the implied goodwill:
Implied Goodwill=Fair Value of DivisionAdjusted Net Assets\text{Implied Goodwill} = \text{Fair Value of Division} - \text{Adjusted Net Assets}
Implied Goodwill=3,500,0002,800,000=700,000\text{Implied Goodwill} = 3,500,000 - 2,800,000 = 700,000

STEP 5

Compare the carrying amount of goodwill with the implied goodwill:
- Carrying amount of goodwill: \$300,000 - Implied goodwill: \$700,000
Since the carrying amount of goodwill (\$300,000) is less than the implied goodwill (\$700,000), there is no impairment.

STEP 6

Since there is no impairment, no journal entry is necessary.
The amount of implied goodwill is:
700,000 \boxed{700,000}
No journal entry for goodwill impairment is required.
