Question

Pratt Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Spider, Inc., on December 31, 2021, for $461,700 cash. Pratt will operate Spider as a wholly owned subsidiary with a separate legal and accounting identity. Although many of Spider’s book values approximate fair values, several of its accounts have fair values that differ from book values. In addition, Spider has internally developed assets that remain unrecorded on its books. In deriving the acquisition price, Pratt assessed Spider’s fair and book value differences as follows:

 

  Book Values Fair Values
Computer software $ 33,000   $ 74,000  
Equipment   82,000     62,600  
Client contracts   0     118,000  
In-process research and development   0     24,000  
Notes payable   (71,500 )   (78,400 )
 

 

At December 31, 2021, the following financial information is available for consolidation (credit balances in parentheses):

 

  Pratt   Spider
Cash $ 23,750     $ 15,000  
Receivables   136,000       47,000
