11ee3a8c_5a2d_3ae5_9af2_35e0acb68557_TB8330_00 Because the $650,000 acquisition price is greater than the fair value of Chesapeake's net assets ($660,000 appraised value of assets, less $180,000 liabilities), Baltimore will record goodwill of $170,000. The purchase will decrease assets (cash) by $650,000, increase assets (the purchased assets) by $660,000, and increase assets (goodwill) by $170,000, resulting in a net increase in assets of $180,000, and will increase liabilities (the assumed liabilities) by $180,000. It will not affect the income statement. The cash paid will be reported as a cash outflow for investing activities on the statement of cash flows.
