On January 1, 2013, Plymouth Corporation acquired 80 percent of the outstanding voting stock of Sander Company in exchange for $1,200,000 cash. At that time, although Sanders book value was $925,000, Plymouth assessed Sanders total business fair value at $1,500,000. Since that time, Sander has neither issued nor reacquired any shares of its own stock.

The book values of Sanders individual assets and liabilities approximated their acquisition date fair values except for the patent account, which was undervalued by $350,000. The undervalued patents had a 5-year remaining life at the acquisition date. Any remaining excess fair value was attributed to goodwill. No goodwill impairments have occurred.

Sander regularly sells inventory to Plymouth. Below are details of the intra-entity inventory sales for the past three years:

Year	Intra-Entity Sales			Intra-Entity Ending Inventory at Transfer Price			Gross Profit Rate on Intra-Entity Inventory Transfers
2013	$	125,000		$	80,000			25%
2014		220,000			125,000			28%
2015		300,000			160,000			25%
