Solution

The incorrect statement is: "A bargain purchase gain arises when the purchase consideration is greater than the FVINA acquired."

This is incorrect because a bargain purchase gain actually arises when the purchase consideration is less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets (FVINA) acquired, not greater.
