Answer:

$110,000

Explanation:

Net value of assets = Fair value of assets - Fair value of liabilities

                                 =  $770,000 - $190,000

                                 = $580,000

Fair value of goodwill:

= Purchase price - Net value of assets

= $690,000 - $580,000

= $110,000

Therefore, the amount of goodwill acquired by Flounder is $110,000.
