    d. $150,000.

    Explanation:

    The computation of the consolidated goodwill reported is shown below:

    = Recorded amount of goodwill - impairment amount of goodwill

    = $200,000 - $50,000

    = $150,000

    By deducting the impairment of goodwill from the recorded amount of goodwill we can get the consolidated goodwill that is to be reported.

    The 90% acquired percentage is ignored
