Answer:
Polo will report $318,750 as its investment in Stallion at December 31, 20X8
Explanation:
Common stock = $300,000 acquired at 75%
Net income = $40,000
Pay dividends = $10,000
Increase in value of Patent = $50,000
Economic Life = 10
Amortization = $5,000
Therefore, the $ 5000 would be reduced from the net income.
Investments in Polo = $300,000 + [0.75 × (40000 - 10000 - 5000)]
= $300,000+ 0.75(25,000)
= $300,000+ $18,750
= $318,750
