Management has determined that Salamander is a cash-generating unit (CGU). Porpoise
tests its investment in Salamander each year for impairment and allocates the loss, if any,
first to goodwill. Goodwill was impaired by $20,000 and $30,000 for fiscal years 20X3
and 20X4, respectively.
On July 1,20X3, Salamander sold Porpoise equipment with a net book value of $70,000
for a cash consideration of $40,000. The equipment originally cost Salamander $90,000.
It had a remaining useful life of six years at the date of the intercompany sale. Assume
that the loss is not an impairment loss.
Neither company paid dividends in20X4. The income tax rate has remained at40% for
both companies since 20X2. Ignore future income taxes on the purchase price
discrepancy.
Porpoise uses the FVE method to value the non-controlling interest at the acquisition
date. Requinea: Hit
