Anchovy acquired 90 percent of yelton on january 1 2009


Question - Anchovy acquired 90 percent of Yelton on January 1, 2009. Of Yelton's total acquisition-date fair value, $60,000 was allocated to undervalued equipment (with a 10-year life) and $80,000 was attributed to franchises (to be written off over a 20-year period).

Since the takeover, Yelton has transferred inventory to its parent as follows:

Year Cost Transfer Price Remaining at Year-End

2009 $ 20,000 $ 50,000 $ 20,000 (at transfer price)

2010 49,000 70,000 30,000 (at transfer price)

2011 50,000 100,000 40,000 (at transfer price)

On January 1, 2010, Anchovy sold Yelton a building for $50,000 that had originally cost $70,000 but had only a $30,000 book value at the date of transfer. The building is estimated to have a five year remaining life (straight-line depreciation is used with no salvage value).

Selected figures from the December 31, 2011, trial balances of these two companies are as follows:
