Goodwill = Consideration paid to acquire interest – Fair value of the share of net identifiable assets
Here,
Consideration paid for acquiring 90% share = 250mn pounds
Fair value of total net identifiable assets of the Company = Fair values of (Land and buildings + Vehicles + Stock + Debtors) – Fair value of creditors
= 80mn + 46 mn + 60mn + 54mn – 20 mn
220mn pounds
90% share of net identifiable assets = 90% * 220 mn pounds
= 198 mn pounds
Goodwill = 250mn pounds – 198 mn pounds
= 52 mn pounds
Therefore, correct answer is A.
