On this date, Subsidiary had total owners' equity of $250,000 (common stock $20,000; other paid-in capital, $80,000; and retained earnings, $150,000). Any excess of cost over book value is due to the under or overvaluation of certain assets and liabilities. Inventory, which was sold in the third quarter, is undervalued $5,000. Land is undervalued $20,000. Buildings and equipment have a fair value which exceeds book value by $30,000, and a 5-year expected life. Bonds payable are overvalued $10,000.
