Answer:
Takeover Co.
a) Goodwill = $146,000
b) Target's ROI = 36.42%
c) Takeover's ROI = 21.07%
d) False
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Target Co's net assets fair value = $162,000
Payment by Takeover Co = $308,000
Goodwill = $146,000 ($308,000 - $162,000)
b) Target's ROI:
Operating income = $59,000
Net assets = $162,000
ROI = ($59,000/$162,000) * 100
= 36.42%
c) Takeover Co's ROI:
Operating income = $64,900
Net assets = $308,000
ROI = $64,900/$308,000 * 100
= 21.07%
d) Takeover Co:
Goodwill = $93,000
Purchase price of Target = $255,000 ($93,000 + $162,000)
