CHAPTER 4CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSAND OUTSIDE OWNERSHIPAnswers to Questions1. "Noncontrolling interest" refers to an equity interest that is held in a member of abusiness combination by an unrelated (outside) party.2. a. Acquisition method = $220,000 (fair value)b. Purchase method = $208,000 (all of the book value plus 80 percent of the $60,000difference between fair value and book value)3. A control premium is the portion of an acquisition price (above currently traded marketvalues) paid by a parent company to induce shareholders to sell a sufficient number ofshares to obtain control. The extra payment typically becomes part of the goodwillacquired in the acquisition attributable to the parent company.4. In practice, noncontrolling interest figures will appear in various locations withinconsolidated financial statements. The end of year balance can be found in the liabilitysection, in the stockholders' equity section, or between these two. The noncontrollinginterest's share of net income can be shown as a reduction on either the incomestatement or the statement of retained earnings. Based on current practice, thistextbook reports the ending balance between consolidated liabilities and stockholders'equity with the income allocation shown as a reduction on the income statement.5. The ending noncontrolling interest can be determined on a consolidation worksheet byadding the components found in the noncontrolling interest column: the beginningbalance plus allocation of current year net income less dividends paid to these outsideowners. The ending balance can also be determined (at this point in the exploration ofconsolidated financial statements) by multiplying the outside ownership percentage bythe subsidiary's ending book value. In subsequent chapters, this calculation must bealtered because of various adjustments made within the consolidation process.6. Allsports should remove the pre-acquisition revenues and expenses from theconsolidated totals. These amounts have been earned (incurred) prior to ownership byAllsports and therefore should not be reported as earnings for the current parentcompany owners.7. In previous years, Tree has appropriately utilized the market-value method in accountingfor its investment in Limb. Now, following a second acquisition, consolidation hasbecome applicable. These two methods are not considered to be comparable.Therefore, at the point in time that Tree begins to produce consolidated statements, allprevious financial reports must be restated as if the equity method had been appliedsince the date of the first acquisition. This handling presents the reader of the financialstatements with figures that are more comparable from year to year.8. When a company sells a portion of an investment, a gain or loss is recognized based onthe difference between the proceeds received and the book value of the investment (onMcGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 20094-2 Solutions Manualthe portion sold). The correct book value is determined based upon the consistentapplication of the equity method. Thus, if either the Initial value method or the partialequity method has been used, Duke must first restate the account to the equity methodbefore recording the sales transaction. This same method is also applied to the

Page 2: Advance Acc

operations of the current period occurring prior to the time of sale.9. Unless control is surrendered, the acquisition method views the sale of subsidiary'sstock as a treasury stock transaction. Thus, no gain or loss can be recognized.10. The accounting method choice for the remaining shares depends upon the currentrelationship between the two firms. If Duke retains control, consolidation is still required.However, if the parent now can only significantly influence the decision-making process,the equity method is applied. A third possibility is Duke may have lost the power toexercise even significant influence. The market-value method then is appropriate.McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2009Hoyle, Schaefer, Doupnik, Advanced Accounting, 9/e 4-3

Answers to Problems1. D The acquisition method consolidates assets at fair value at acquisition dateregardless of the parent’s percentage ownership.2. D In consolidating the subsidiary's figures, all intercompany balances mustbe eliminated in their entirety for external reporting purposes. Even thoughthe subsidiary is less than fully owned, the parent nonetheless controls it.3.

Therefore, Entry *C is needed to adjust the parent's beginningretained earnings for 2011 to the equity method. During 2009 and 2010,the subsidiary earned a total net income of $171,000 but paid dividendsof only $83,000. The parent's share of the difference is $61,600 (70% of$88,000 [$171,000 - $83,000]).

Accounting Theory Research Case: Noncontrolling InterestIn deliberations prior to the issuance of SFAS 160, “Noncontrolling Interests inConsolidated Financial Statements,” the FASB consider three alternatives for displayingthe noncontrolling interest in the consolidated statement of financial position.What were these three alternatives?1. As a liability2. As equity3. In the “mezzanine” area between liabilities and owners’ equityWhat criteria did the FASB use to evaluate the desirability of each alternative?The FASB evaluated whether the classifications conformed to current definitions offinancial statement elements (assets, liabilities, or equity) as articulated in FASBConcept Statement No. 6.In what specific ways did FASB Concept Statement 6 affect the FASB’s evaluation ofthese alternatives?From SFAS 160 paragraphs 32-34If it required that the noncontrolling interest be reported in the mezzanine, theBoard would have had to create a new element—noncontrolling interest insubsidiaries—specifically for consolidated financial statements. The Boardconcluded that no compelling reason exists to create a new elementspecifically for consolidated financial statements to report the interests in asubsidiary held by owners other than the parent. The Board believes thatusing the existing elements of financial statements along with appropriatelabeling and disclosure provides financial information in the consolidatedfinancial statements that is representationally faithful, understandable, andrelevant to the entity’s owners, creditors, and other resource providers.The Board concluded that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary does notmeet the definition of a liability in the Board’s conceptual framework.Paragraph 35 of Concepts Statement 6 defines liabilities as “probable futuresacrifices of economic benefits arising from present obligations of a particularentity to transfer assets or provide services to other entities in the future as aresult of past transactions or events”The Board concluded that a noncontrolling interest represents the residualinterest in the net assets of a subsidiary within the consolidated group held byowners other than the parent. The noncontrolling interest, therefore, meets thedefinition of equity in Concepts Statement 6. Paragraph 49 of ConceptsStatement 6 defines equity (or net assets) as “the residual interest in theassets of an entity that remains after deducting its liabilities.”McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 20094-42 Solutions Manual

MemorandumTo: CFO, Allied Telecom CorporationRe: Surefire Cell Corporation Noncontrolling Interest ValuationYou are correct in observing that the newly created 10 percent noncontrollinginterest in your recent acquisition, Surefire Cell, must be valued for presentationin your consolidated financial statements. The acquisition-date fair value is therequired valuation basis for the noncontrolling interest—usually provided bymarket trading data. However, because the 10 percent shares do not appear tobe actively traded, a valuation alternative will need to be selectedAccording to SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” three main techniques areavailable for the noncontrolling interest valuation: the market approach, theincome approach, and the cost approach.The market approach involves obtaining fair values for similar assets orbusinesses that are comparable to Surefire Cell. This valuation technique isappropriate when such comparable firms with observable market values areavailable.The income approach values a firm by discounting the best available measures offuture benefits, typically cash flows or earnings. Often the income approachrequires both supportable assumptions and a sufficient number of inputs to createan accurate forecasting model.The cost approach looks to the replacement cost of the firm’s net assets (incurrent condition) to value the firm. This approach requires ready market pricesfor the firm’s assets and does not rely on estimates of future cash flows orearnings. As such it is often the least accurate valuation method.
