Instructions

This spreadsheet contains 16 individual worksheets that are to be completed as part of Homework #2. Please be sure to complete all 16 of them in order to earn full credit for the Excel portion of the homework.
On each of the six worksheets, enter the correct numbers in gray-shaded cells. When your answer is correct, that cell will change color to a light green. Do not copy formulas into cells – doing so will overwrite the conditional formatting that's used to make the cells change color when correct.
For guidance and instructions on how to work through these exercises, please be sure to go through the "Walk-Through Lecture" and "Practice Exercises" found in the Content section of Weeks #1 and #2. If you have questions, please post them up into the "Content & Homework Questions" forum for this week.
Exercises "1A 1B 1C", "2A 2B 2C", and "3A 3B 3C" represent three sets of a one company performing an acquisition of another. For each set, the "A" exercises are the journal entries made under an Asset Purchase, "B" exercises are the journal entries made under a Stock Purchase / Acquisition Method, and the "C" exercises represent the required entries for an Initial Consolidation if a Stock Purchase / Acquisition Method is done.
Exercises 4A, 4B, & 4C represent the journal entries that need to be made by the acquiring company and the selling company if the acquisition was made doing an Asset Purchase or a Stock Purchase using the issuance of stock on the part of the purchasing company to pay for the acquisition.
Exercises 5A, 5B, & 5C represents the journal entries that need to be made by the acquiring company to record income and dividend activities on the part of the acquired company.
Exercise 6 is a series of word-type problems similar to how questions relating to the material would be presented in multiple choice questions on our exams and the CPA exam.
