A. Part A requires an adjustment entry for the trademark's carrying value based on its fair value at 12/31/Year6. Since the fair value of the trademark is $420,000, an adjustment of $80,000 ($420,000 - $340,000) should be recorded as an increase to the trademark's carrying value. The entry to record this adjustment would be:
Trademark $80,000
This entry recognizes the impairment loss and reduces the carrying value of goodwill by the amount of the impairment loss.
