recognize the parent‟s share of the cumulative undistributed profits (losses)of its subsidiary? Under
which method(s) is this adjustment needed? Why?

7. On a consolidated work paper for a parent and its partially owned subsidiary, the noncontrolling interest
column accumulates the non controlling interests‟ share of several account balances. What are these
accounts?

8. If a parent company elects to use the partial equity method rather than the cost method to record its
investments in subsidiaries, what effect will this choice have on the consolidated financial statements?
If the parent company elects the complete equity method?

9. Describe two methods for treating the preacquisition revenue and expense items of a subsidiary
purchased during a fiscal period.

10. A principal limitation of consolidated financial statements is their lack of separate financial in-
formation about the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of the individual companies included in
the consolidation. Identify some problems that the reader of consolidated financial statements would
encounter as a result of this limitation.

11. In the preparation of a consolidated statement of cash flows, what adjustments are necessary because of

when the affiliates file separate income tax returns.

Business Ethics Question from the Textbook


On April 5, 2006, the New York State Attorney sued a New York online advertising firm for surreptitiously
installing spyware advertising programs on consumers‟ computers. The Attorney General claimed that con-
sumers believed they were downloading free games or „browser‟ enhancements. The company claimed that
the spyware was identified as „advertising-supported‟ and that the software is easy to remove and doesn‟t
collect personal data. Is there an ethical issue for the company? Comment on and justify your position.

Short Answers

1. The three levels of influence (control) over an investee are (1) no significant influence, (2)
significant influence, and (3) effective control. When an investor has no significant influence over
an investee, the investment is accounted for at fair value with year-end adjustment for market
changes (the cost method). If the investor has significant influence over the investee, the investment
is accounted for under the equity method. In the equity method, the investor adjusts the investment
account for changes in the investee's net assets.

When an investor has effective control over the investee, consolidated financial statements are
prepared. The investor's investment account is eliminated in the consolidated process.

Chapter 4 Consolidated Financial Statements after Acquisition 4-19

2.
The two methods of accounting for interim acquisitions are the full-year reporting alternative and
the partial-year reporting alternative. The full-year method includes the subsidiary's revenues and
expenses in the consolidated income statement for the entire year and then makes a deduction at the
bottom of the income statement for the preacquisition earnings.

The partial-year method includes in the consolidated income statement only the subsidiary's revenue
and expense amounts for the period after acquisition. The full-year method is preferred.

Short Answer Questions in Textbook Solutions

1 Nonconsolidated subsidiaries are expected to be relatively rare. In those situations where a subsidiary
is not consolidated, the investment in the subsidiary should be reported in the consolidated statement
of financial position at cost, along with other long-term investments.

2. A liquidating dividend is a return of investment rather than a return on investment. Consequently, the
amount of a liquidating dividend should be credited to the investment account rather than to dividend
income when the cost method is used, whereas regular dividends are recorded as dividend income
under the cost method. If the equity method is used, all dividends are credited to the investment
account.

3. When the parent company uses the cost method, the work paper elimination of intercompany
dividends is made by a debit to Dividend Income and a credit to Dividends Declared. This
elimination prevents the double counting of income since the subsidiary's individual revenue and
expense items are combined with the parent company's in the determination of consolidated net
income. When the parent company uses the equity method, the work paper elimination for
intercompany dividends is made by a debit to the investment account and a credit to Dividends
Declared.

4. When the parent company uses the cost method, dividends received are recorded as dividend income.
When the parent company uses the partial equity method, the parent company recognizes equity
income on its books equal to its ownership percentage times the investee company‟s reported net
income. When the parent company uses the complete equity method, the parent recognizes income
similar to the partial equity method, but adjusts the equity income for additional charges or credits
when the purchase price differs from the fair value of the investee company‟s net assets, and for
intercompany profits (addressed in chapters 6 and 7).

5. Consolidated net income consists of the parent company's net income from independent operations
plus (minus) any income (loss) earned (incurred) by its subsidiaries during the period, adjusted for
any intercompany transactions during the period and for any excess depreciation or amortization
implied by a purchase price in excess of book values.

Consolidated retained earnings consist of the parent company's retained earnings from its
independent operations plus (minus) the parent company's share of the increase (decrease) in its
subsidiaries' retained earnings from the date of acquisition.

6. Investment in S Company 356,144


1/1 Retained Earnings, P Company
80% ($461,430 - $16,250)] 356,144

This adjustment recognizes that P Company's share of S Company's undistributed profits from the
date of acquisition to the beginning of the current year is properly a part of beginning-of-year
consolidated retained earnings. It also enhances the elimination of the investment account. This entry
is only needed if the parent company uses the cost method. If the equity method is used, the parent‟s
retained earnings already reflect the undistributed earnings of the subsidiary.

7. The noncontrolling interest column accumulates the noncontrolling stockholders' share of subsidiary
income, less their share of excess depreciation or amortization implied by fair value adjustments
(addressed in detail in chapter 5), dividends (as a reduction), and the beginning noncontrolling
interest in equity carried forward from the previous period.

8. The method used to record the investment on the books of the parent company (cost method, partial
equity method, or complete equity method) has no effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Only the workpaper elimination procedures are affected.

9. The two methods for treating the preacquisition revenue and expense items of a subsidiary purchased
during a fiscal year are (1) including the revenue and expense items of the subsidiary for the entire
period with a deduction at the bottom of the consolidated income statement for the net income earned
prior to acquisition (this is the preferred method), and (2) including in the consolidated income
statement only the subsidiary's revenue earned and expenses incurred subsequent to the date of
purchase.

10. (a) Readers of consolidated financial statements will be unable to evaluate the financial
position and results of operations (neither of which is shown separately from the parent's)
of the subsidiaries.

(b) Because consolidated assets are not generally available to meet the claims of the creditors of a
subsidiary, creditors will have to look to the financial statements of the debtor (subsidiary)
corporation. Similarly, the creditors of the parent company are most interested in only the assets of
the parent company, although large creditors are likely to gain control over or have indirect access
to the assets of subsidiaries in the case of parent company default.

(c) Because consolidated financial statements are a composite, it is impossible to distinguish a


financially weak subsidiary from financially strong ones.

(d) Ratio analyses based on consolidated data are not reliable guides, especially when the related group
produces a conglomerate of unrelated product lines and services.

(e) Consolidated financial statements often do not disclose data about subsidiaries that are not
consolidated.

(f) A reader of consolidated financial statements cannot assume that a certain amount of unrestricted
consolidated retained earnings will be available for dividends. Data on the ability of the individual
subsidiaries to pay dividends are frequently unavailable.

Chapter 4 Consolidated Financial Statements after Acquisition 4-21

11. A consolidated statement of cash flows contains two adjustments that result from the existence of a
noncontrolling interest: (1) an adjustment for the noncontrolling interest in net income or loss of the
subsidiary in the determination of net cash flow from operating activities, and (2) subsidiary dividend
payments to the noncontrolling stockholders must be included with parent company dividends paid in
determining cash paid as dividends because the entire amount of the noncontrolling interest in net
income (loss) is added back (deducted) in determining net cash flows from operating activities.

12. Potential voting rights refer to the rights associated with potentially dilutive securities such as
convertible bonds or stocks, or stock options, rights, or warrants that are currently exercisable. These
are considered under international standards in determining the applicability of the equity method for
investments where the investor may be considered to have significant influence. They are generally not
considered under U.S. GAAP. International standards (IFRS) refer to investments that are accounted
for under the equity method as “investments in associates.”

13B. No. The recognition and display of a deferred tax asset or deferred tax liability relating to the
assignment of the difference between implied value and book value is necessary without regard to
whether the affiliates file consolidated income tax returns or separate income tax returns.

14B An assumption must be made as to whether the undistributed income will be realized in a future
dividend distribution or as a result of the sale of the subsidiary. This is necessary because the
calculation of the tax consequences differs depending on the assumption made. Dividend
distributions are subject to a dividends received exclusion, whereas gains or losses on disposal are
not. In addition, gains or losses on disposal may be taxed at different tax rates than dividend
distributions. Although capital gains are currently taxed at the same rates as ordinary income, the
rates have been different in the past and may be again in the future.

15B The amounts calculated under these two approaches would be different (1) if the affiliates had
different marginal tax rates, (2) if the affiliates were in different tax jurisdictions, or (3) when
expected future tax rates differ from the tax rate used in determining the tax paid or accrued by the
selling affiliate.

16B When the affiliates file separate returns, two types of temporary differences may arise:
1. Deferred income tax consequences that arise in the consolidated financial statements because of
undistributed subsidiary income, and
2. Deferred income tax consequences that arise in the consolidated financial statements because of
the elimination of unrealized intercompany profit.
