Question
On January 1, 2015, Bactin Corporation acquired 10% of
Oakton Company for $100,000. On that date, the total
book value and fair value of Oakton's net assets was
$900,000. Any difference between cost and fair value is
attributable to goodwill. In 2015, Oakton reported net
income of $60,000 and paid dividends of $30,000. On
January 1, 2016, Bactin Corporation bought another 10%
of Oakton for $100,000, and on that date, the book value
and fair value of Oakton's net assets still was $900,000
(the fair value of Oakton did not change during 2015).
Bactin concluded that its 20% ownership now allowed it
to significantly influence Oakton's operations. In 2016,
Oakton reported net income of $80,000 and paid
dividends of $40,000.
Required:
Prepare all journal entries for Bactin for 2015 and 2016,
assuming no change in fair value of the Oakton stock
during that time period.
