Amie, Inc., has 100,000 shares of $2 par value stock outstanding. Prairie Corporation acquired 30,000 of Amie’s shares on January 1, 2012, for $120,000 when Amie’s net assets had a total fair value of $350,000. On July 1, 2015, Prairie bought an additional 60,000 shares of Amie from a single stockholder for $6 per share.
