Current liabilities $600,000

It was determined at the date of the purchase that the fair value of the identifiable net assets of Conchita was $2,750,000. Over the next 6 months of operations, the newly purchased division experienced operating losses. In addition, it now appears that it will generate substantial losses for the foreseeable future.

Current assets $450,000
Noncurrent assets (including goodwill recognized in purchase) $2,400,000
Current liabilities (700,000)
Long-term liabilities (500,000)
Net assets $1,650,000
It is determined that the fair value of the Conchita Division is $1,850,000. The recorded amount for Conchita's net assets (excluding goodwill) is the same as fair value, except for property, plant, and equipment, which has a fair value of $150,000 above the carrying value.
