    Comprehensive income attributable to the controlling interest for 20X8 is $119,000

    Explanation:

    Stamp Corporation

    Year Net Income Comprehensive Income Dividends Paid 20X8 $ 25,000 $ 30,000 $ 5,000

    20X9 $35,000 $45,000 $ 10,000

    The amount of comprehensive income attributable to the controlling interest for 20X8;

    Comprehensive income of Stamp Corporation = $30,000

    Less: Annual amortization of intangible assets acquired on acquisition (50000/8) = $6,250

    Comprehensive income of Stamp Corporation after adjustment = $23,750

    Income attributable to controlling interest = 80% * $23,750 = $19,000

    Net income of Package Company = $100,000

    Comprehensive income attributable to the controlling interest = Income attributable to controlling interest + Net income of Package Company

    = $19,000 + $100,000

    = $119,000
