In addition to the assets identified above, Ravinder Corp. attributed a value of $102,000 to a major research project that Robin Inc. was working on. Robin Inc. feels that it is within a year of developing a prototype for a state-of-the-art bio-medical device. If this device can ever be patented, it could be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Effective on August 1, Year 3, the shareholders of Robin Inc. accepted an offer from Ravinder Corp. to purchase 80% of their common shares for $1,120,000 in cash. Ravinder Corp.s legal fees for investigating and drawing up the share purchase agreement amounted to $26,000.

Required:

(a) Prepare the journal entries in the records of Ravinder Corp. to record the share acquisition and cost of legal fees. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

(b) Prepare a schedule to calculate and allocate the acquisition differential. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign.)

(c) Prepare Ravinder Corp.s consolidated balance sheet as at August 1, Year 3. Assume there were no transactions on this date other than the transactions described above. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign.)
