Noncontrolling interest in the subsidiary net income


Problem:

On April 1, 2004, Guns, Inc., purchases 70 percent of the outstanding stock of Roses Corporation for $430,000. The subsidiary's book value on that date was $500,000. Any excess cost was attributable to goodwill. During 2004, Roses generates revenues of $600,000 and expenses of $360,000.

Both figures occur evenly throughout the year. On a December 31, 2004 consolidated income statement, what should be reported as the noncontrolling interest in the subsidiary's net income and as preacquisition income?
