Answer:

Baxter

The amount of the Goodwill write-off required to be booked by Ajax at December 31, 2020 under the FASB rules effective in 2020 is:

= $130,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Recorded Goodwill = $330,000

Book value of net assets = $400,000

Book value of all assets = $730,000 ($400,000 + $330,000)

Estimated fair value of company = $600,000

Goodwill impairment = $130,000 ($730,000 - $600,000)

b) The Goodwill impairment of $130,000 arose when the book value or the carrying amount exceeded the estimated fair value.
