Given the SEC's recent indication that pooling of interest treatment will be curtailed/eliminated (I'm not sure what FASB is doing with this--any one know?), UNPH, as the putative acquiror, in effect has to employ purchase accounting treatment. The value of the acquisition in excess of book must appear on the surviving company's books as goodwill, to be amortized over prescribed time period. Perhaps some of the accounting types can help me out with the appropriate amortization period and any other errors here. Regards. Liacos_samui
