Answer:

The answer is A.

Explanation:

Net assets of the acquired company are revalued to their fair values and any excess of consideration transferred over fair value of net assets acquired is allocated to goodwill is correct.

This is also the calculation of goodwill. Goodwill is calculated by subtracting fair value of net identifiable net asset o the company that is about to be acquired from its purchase price.

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Net income to be earned =   $58,500

Explanation:

The net income to be earned can determined as follows:

<em>Net income = (sales value - Variable costs) - Fixed costs</em>

With an increase in selling price by 10%, the total sales value would now be

Total sales value = 110% × 315,000 =$346,500

Net income therefore would be

                    = (346,500 - 218,000) - 70,000

                  =   $58,500

Not that the fixed cost will not change because it is independent of volume and also the variable cost has been  stated to remain the same.
