Equity method journal entries (price greater than book value) An investor purchases a 25% interest in an investee company, and t

he investor concludes that it can exert significant influence over the investee. The book value of the investee’s Stockholders’ Equity on the acquisition date is $500,000, and the investor purchases its 25% interest for $145,000. The investor is willing to pay the purchase price because the investee owns an unrecorded (internally developed) patent that the investor estimates is worth $80,000. The patent has a remaining useful life of 10 years. Subsequent to the acquisition, the investee reports net income of $100,000, and pays a cash dividend to the investor of $20,000. At the end of the first year, the investor sells the Equity Investment for $180,000. Prepare all of the required journal entries to account for this Equity Investment during the year.

<u>General Journal </u>

<u>Description                                          Debit ($)             Credit ($)          </u>

Equity investment                               145,000

Cash                                                                                  145,000

<em><u>(To record purchase of investment.)                                                      </u></em>

Cash                                                      25,000

Income from equity investment (w.1)                              25,000

<em><u>(To record equity income.)                                                                       </u></em>

Cash                                                     20,000

Equity investment                                                            20,000

<u><em>(To record receipt of cash dividend.)                                                      </em></u>

Income from equity investment           2,000

Equity investment (w.2)                                                     2,000

<em><u>(To record patent amortization expense.)                                             </u></em>

Cash                                                   180,000

<u><em>(To record sale of investment.)                                                              </em></u>

Workings

w.1: Income from equity investment = Investee's net income * Percentage of interest = $100,000 * 25% = $25,000

w.2: Equity investment = (Patent value / Remaining useful life) * Percentage of interest = ($80,000 / 10) * 25% = $8,000 * 25% = $2,000

w.3: Equity investment = $145,000 + $25,000 - $20,000 - $2,000 = $148,000

w.4: Gain on sale of equity investment = Sales proceed - w.3 = $180,000 - $148,000 = $32,000

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Gross investment is equal to

Gross investment =  Capital stock at the end of the year + consumption of private fixed capital - Capital stock at the starting of the year

= $350+$25-$200 = $175

So gross investment will be equal to $175 billion
