Explanation:

Acquire Southern Company's assets and liabilities in cash = $20,000,000

Southern's balance sheet reported,

Assets = $75,000,000

Liabilities = $65,000,000

plant assets are overvalued by $1,400,000

Actual Value of Southern's Assets = Total Fair Value - Overvaluation

                                                         = $75,000,000 - $1,400,000

                                                         = $73,600,000

Goodwill = Actual Value of Southern's Assets - Value of Liabilities

               = $73,600,000 - $65,000,000

               = $8,600,000
