As you could see, Reseves should be at ZERO, because I have to make an accounting entry, Bidwill/Goodwill to neutralize it. But I don't know how to calculate it !!!

I'm very very sorry for the question but really can't find another solution other than share it with you.

Thank you very much for your help please !

You are much more likely to get an answer if you spend your time and effort on framing your question succinctly instead of flooding us with numbers. And if you really really have to show numbers to illustrate your point, use simple round figures like 100, 50, 20 etc.
