a                            Fair value of entity                               200,000

b                            Total value without patent                       175,000

c=a-b                     Patent                                                       25,000

Therefore,  the increase in the fair value of patents held by Side is;

b) $25,000

Fair value of consideration given:

Ref                               Particulars                                    Amount

                                     Stock                                             0

                                     Cash                                                    180,000

a                               Total consideration                            180,000

b                               Stake acquired                            90%

c=a/b                       Fair value of subsidiary                    200,000

d=100%-b               Minority interest                            10%

e=c*d                       Fair value of minority interest            20,000

On acquisition date

Common stock                   100,000

Paid in capital                       -  

Retained earnings                   60,000

Fair value adjustment:

Equipment                           10,000

Land                                    5,000

Fair value without patent   175,000

2)

Particulars                                      Investment

Acquisition date                              180,000

Add: share of net income              54,000

Less: Dividends                              18,000

Less: Fair value amortization      12,600

Balance Jan 1, 20X8                      203,400

{Share of earnings for 2 years = 30,000 × 2 × 90% = 54,000 }

{Share of dividends for 2 years = 10,000 × 2 × 90% = 18,000 }

{Fair value amortization for 2 years = 7,000 × 90% × 2 = 12,600}

Therefore Balance as at Jan 1, 20X8 is

d) $203,400

larisa86 [58]

Answer: Yes, the distribution between the dividend yield and the capital gains yield would influence the firm’s decision to pay more dividends rather than to retain and reinvest more of its earnings.

Explanation:

Yes, If a company decides to increase its dividend payout ratio, the dividend yield component will rise, but the expected long-term capital gains yield will decline as there is less to reinvest in the company. Also, if the company doesn't pay out dividends, there's more to reinvest in the company. Stable and older companies that are not on a growth objective rely on investors that prefer dividends more than share price appreciation. On the other hand, emerging companies, are inclined to share price appreciation to attract investors. Investors understand that all retained earnings are going towards marketing and growth objectives.
