On May 4, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of Mercedes Premier Homes, LLC (also known as Vintage Estate Homes, LLC, or “Vintage”), a Florida- and Texas-based homebuilder, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $54.6 million. In addition, we assumed $32.1 million of debt and paid down $3.8 million of debt in connection with the acquisition. The total assets of Vintage included approximately 20 development projects (unaudited) and 1,800 lots (unaudited) in various stages of development.
In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from our acquisitions of Vintage, Garrett Walker, and Pinnacle West were measured and recognized at fair value as of the date of the acquisitions to reflect the purchase price paid.
Acquired inventories consist of land, land deposits, and work in process inventories. For acquired land and land options, the Company typically utilizes, with the assistance of a third party appraiser, a sales comparison approach. For work in process inventories, the Company estimates the fair value based upon the stage of production of each unit and a gross margin that management believes a market participant would require to complete the remaining development and requisite selling efforts. On the acquisition date, the stage of production for each lot ranged from recently started lots to fully completed homes. The intangible asset acquired relates to the Vintage trade name, which is estimated to have a fair value of $1.6 million and is being amortized over one year. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and relates primarily to the assembled workforce. Goodwill of $3.8 million was recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as a result of this transaction and is deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. The acquired goodwill is included in the Florida reporting segment in Note 13, Segment Reporting. The Company incurred transaction related costs of $0.9 million related to the Vintage acquisition during the year ended December 31, 2021.
The Company's results of operations include homebuilding revenues from the Vintage acquisition of $125.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2021. The accompanying consolidated statement of operations before tax also includes a loss of $0.9 million, during the year ended December 31, 2021, inclusive of purchase price accounting and an allocation of corporate general and administrative expenses.
The following is a summary of the allocation of the purchase price based on the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed (dollars in thousands).
