Allison Corporation acquired 90 percent of Bretton on January 1, 2016. Of Bretton's total acquisition-date fair value, $60,000 was allocated to undervalued equipment (with a 10-year remaining life) and $80,000 was attributed to franchises (to be written off over a 20-year period). Since the takeover, Bretton has transferred inventory to its parent as follows Transfer Price Remaining at Year-End Year Cost 2016 $45,000 $ 90,000 30,000 (at transfer price) 2017 48,000 80,000 2018 69,000 92,000 35,000 (at transfer price) 50,000 (at transfer price) On January 1, 2017, Allison sold Bretton a building for $50,000 that had originally cost $70,000 but had only a $30,000 book value at the date of transfer.
