$647,150

Explanation:

On December 31, 2017

Paar’s equipment has a book value = $372,750

Kimmel's equipment with a book value = $191,100

Equipment fair value more than book value = ($392,000 - $273,000)

                                                                         = $119,000

                                                     = $35,700

consolidated balance for the Equipment account as of December 31, 2017:

= Paar’s equipment has a book value + Kimmel's equipment with a book value + Equipment fair value more than book value - Amortization of all allocation

= $372,750 + $191,100 + $119,000 - $35,700

= $647,150
