At the time of the transaction, Campbell's common stock had a fair value of $40 per share. In connection with the business combination, Campbell paid $25 to a broker for arranging the transaction and $30 in stock issuance costs. At the time of the transaction, Newton's equipment was actually worth $1,450 but its buildings were only valued at $590. What total amount of additional paid-in capital will Campbell recognize from this acquisition?

$1,020. With respect to stock issued, APIC is adjusted by the amount fair value exceeds par value and stock issuance costs. APIC: Excess Value of Stock Over Par = ($40 − $10) × 35 shares = $1,050 APIC: Stock Issuance Costs = $30 Total APIC resulting from acquisition = $1,050 − $30 = $1,020

On January 1, 2021, the Moody Company entered into a transaction for 100% of the outstanding common stock of Osorio Company.

In Moody's appraisal of Osorio, three assets were deemed to be undervalued on the subsidiary's books: Inventory by $10, Land by $40, and Buildings by $60. If Osorio retains a separate corporate existence, what amount was recorded as the investment in Osorio?

$1,030. Because the fair value of Osorio's net assets acquired exceeds the consideration paid by Moody, a bargain purchase gain has occurred as follows: Fair value of Osorio's net assets acquired ($1,510 assets - $480 liabiities)$1,030 Consideration transferred for 100% of Osorio ($400 liabilities + $400 common stock) 800 Bargain purchase gain$230 When the fair value of net assets acquired exceeds the consideration transferred, the investment account is recorded at the fair value of the net assets acquired and not the consideration transferred. Therefore, Moody records the Osorio acquisition on its books as follows: Investment in Osorio$1,030 Long-term liabilities 400Common stock ($1 par) 40Additional paid-in capital 360Gain on bargain purchase 230
