Goodwill = 460.000

Explanation:

The Net Book Value of Renn Corp. on June 1 is 620,000

The Fair value of the net Assets of Renn Corp. on June 1 is 460,000. This is calculated as follows:

To the Book Value we will take of the amount of accounts receivable (180,000) and capitalized software costs (320,000); and we will add the fair value of those assets (140,000 and 200,000)

Fair value of the net Assets = 620,000 - 180,000 + 140,000 - 320,000 + 200,000 = 460,000

And difference betewn the Fair value and the purchase price is Goodwill:

Goodwill = Purchase Price - Fair value of the net Assets

Goodwill = 800,000 - 460,000

Goodwill = 340,000
