Runyan received dividends of $2.40 per share on December 15, 2021, and Lavery reported net income of $310 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The market value of Lavery's common stock at December 31, 2021, was $35 per share. On the purchase date, the book value of Lavery's identifiable net assets was $960 million and: The fair value of Lavery's depreciable assets, with an average remaining useful life of four years, exceeded their book value by $80 million. The remainder of the excess of the cost of the investment over the book value of net assets purchased was attributable to goodwill. Required: 1.
