b. How much unrealized net gain from the equipment transfer remains at the beginning of 2023 (this is the amount you will need for the *TA entry at 1/2023.)
c. Which company's Retained earnings account will be adjusted in the *TA entry in part a? (Which company was the "initiator" of the transaction?)
d. How much excess depreciation will there be in each of the first five years after the transfer?
e. Progress's 2023 net income, without including any investment income, was $ 360,000 and Stall reported net income of $ 120,000 in 2023. What consolidated income will be reported before removing the noncontrolling interest's share of the subsidiary's net income? (This includes the effect of the ED entry.)
f. What will the noncontrolling interest's share of the subsidiary's net income be for 20237 (Consider whether the equipment sale had been upstream or downstream.)
