Answer:

Explanation:

In order to prepare the balance sheet, first we have to determine the goodwill which is shown below:

= Acquiring cash - net working capital

= $50 - $28

= $22 million

Net working capital = Current assets +  property, plant and equipment + intangibles - current liabilities - long term debt

= $5 + $60 + $30 - $2 - $65

= $28 million

where,

Property plant & equipment

= $90 - $30

= $60

And, the intangible equal to

= $3 + $20 + $7

= $30
