The acquisition-date fair value of the noncontrolling interest was $60,000. At January 1, 2016, Star's net assets had a total carrying amount of $420,000. Equipment (eight-year remaining life) was undervalued on Star's financial records by $80,000.

    The consolidated net income for the year 2018 of pride corporation is $203000

    Explanation:

    Consideration transferred by Pride $540,000

    Non controlling interest fair value 60,000 =

    Star acquisition-date fair value $600,000 - Star book value 420,000

    = Excess fair over book value $180,000

    Amort.

    To equipment (8 year remaining life) $ 80,000/8 = $10,000

    To customer list (4 year remaining life) 100,000/4 = $25,000

    = $35,000

    Combined revenues=$498000+$285000 = $783,000

    Combined expenses = $350000+$195000=$545,000

    Excess fair value amortization = $35,000 - $545000=$ 580,000

    Consolidated net income = Combined revenues-Excess fair value amortization

    Consolidated net income=$783,000 - $ 580,000 = $203,000

    Hence the consolidate net income for the year 2018 is $203000
