FASB Accounting Standards Codification

The Anderson Corporation (a privately-held company) is interested in in expanding its operating capacity, but is short on cash to finance the expansion. The president of the company does not want to borrow funds, but would not be averse to issuing some of the company’s stock to acquire land and a building. Baker Company owned land and a building, and was interested in disposing of them. After some negotiation, Anderson and Baker agreed to swap the land and building for shares in the Anderson Corporation. The president of Anderson Corporation has asked you how to account for this transaction, including whether the transaction qualifies as an exception to the general rule to use fair value, and the value to place on the transaction and its components. Research the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and prepare a memo to the president that answers his questions. Provide appropriate citations from the Codification.
