Assignment 1:
Chapter 15 - Stockholders’ Equity
E15-4:
1. Incremental method:
2. Proportional method:
Cash 8,160,000
Allocation based when assuming the recent price quote on the common stock reflects fair
value:
(b) In my opinion and with observations of knowledge, I think that the proportional
method is a better approach as it is more time-efficient and convenient due to the fact
that it includes less steps, and that with the incremental method, the value of the sum
purchase has to first be allocated to securities with known market values. However, the
incremental method is preferred for use if the market value of a security involved in a
lump-sum sale is unknown.
