    The answer is $148,000

    Explanation:

    Goodwill comes into effect or arises when a company acquires another company. Goodwill is an intangible asset. It is difference between the purchase price of a company and the net asset (total assets minus total liability)

    Purchase price is $425,000

    Fair value of the asset is $365,000

    Total liability is $88,000.

    Net asset = $365,000 - $88,000

    =$277,000

    Therefore, goodwill is $425,000 - $277,000

    = $148,000
