Answer:

$100,000

Explanation:

Calculation of Net amount payable:

Net Amount Payable = Fair Value of asset - Fair Value of liabilities = $800,000 - $300,000 = $500,000

Calculation of Goodwill that Parent pays to Subsidiary:

Goodwill = Actually paid amount - Net amount payable = $600,000 - $500,000 = $100,000
