the shareholders of SPSH a block of land valued at $400,000, a
motor vehicle valued at $45,400 and current shareholders will
receive shares in CCSI worth $50 per share. The land is
carried at a cost of $250,000 while the motor vehicle is carried at

depreciation of $15,000. CCSI will also provide sufficient

internally developed brand. It was calculated that this brand
had a fair value of $500,000. CCSI also incurred legal and
valuation costs of $7,500 in undertaking the business
combination.
