To record the acquisition of Scrub.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Percentage ownership of Scrub by Power = 100%

Assets of Scrub =    $427,000

Liabilities of Scrub     165,000

Common stock           85,000

Retained earnings     177,000

Total Liab + Equity $427,000

On acquisition:

Assets revalued to         $445,000 ($427,000 + 25,000 - 7,000)

Liabilities                           165,000

Net fair value of assets $280,000

a) Purchase price          $287,000

Goodwill on acquisition    $7,000

b) Net fair value of assets $280,000

Purchase price                    262,000

Negative Goodwill arising   $18,000

c) In the first case, the acquisition transactions involve goodwill because Power Corporation pays a greater purchase price than the net fair value of Scrub Company's tangible assets. But in the second case, negative goodwill occurs because the value of the intangible assets (net fair value of assets exceeds the purchase price) must be recorded as a gain on Power Corporation's income statement.
