E1-10 Stock Acquisition
McDermott Corporation has been in the midst of a major expansion program. Much of its growth
had been internal, but in 20X1 McDermott decided to continue its expansion through the
acquisition of other companies. The first company acquired was Tippy Inc., a small
manufacturer of inertial guidance systems for aircraft and missiles. On June 10, 20X1,
McDermott issued 17,000 shares of its $25 par common stock for all 40,000 of Tippy’s $10 par
common shares. At the date of combination, Tippy reported additional paid-in capital of
$100,000 and retained earnings of $350,000. McDermott’s stock was selling for $58 per share
immediately prior to the combination. Subsequent to the combination, Tippy operated as a
subsidiary of McDermott.
Present the journal entry or entries that McDermott would make to record the business
combination with Tippy.

b. Goodwill of $35,000 will be reported (fair value of reporting unit of $280,000 - fair value
of net assets of $245,000). An impairment loss of $45,000 ($80,000 - $35,000) will
be recognized.
c. Goodwill of $15,000 will be reported (fair value of reporting unit of $260,000 - fair value
of net assets of $245,000). An impairment loss of $65,000 ($80,000 - $15,000) will
be recognized.
b. Goodwill of $50,000 will be reported. The implied value of goodwill is $50,000 (fair
value of reporting unit of $540,000 - fair value of net assets of $490,000). Thus, an
impairment of goodwill of $100,000 ($150,000 - $50,000) must be recognized.
c. Goodwill of $10,000 will be reported. The implied value of goodwill is $10,000 (fair value
of reporting unit of $500,000 - fair value of net assets of $490,000). Thus, an
impairment loss of $140,000 ($150,000 - $10,000) must be recognized.

d. No goodwill will be reported. The fair value of the net assets ($490,000) exceeds the
fair value of the reporting unit ($460,000). Thus, the implied value of goodwill is $0
and an impairment loss of $150,000 ($150,000 - $0) must be recognized.
