Learning Objective 1Learning Objective 1

Understand and make equity-method journal entries related to the

differential.

4-3

Basic Concepts: Parent and SubsidiaryBasic Concepts: Parent and Subsidiary

Parent’s books Investment account initially contains the acquisition

cost FMV of net assets, Plus goodwill, or Minus bargain purchase price

Parent can use the cost or equity method

Subsidiary’s books Balance sheet: Assets and Liabilities are recorded at

BOOK values. Income statement: Expenses calculated based on

BOOK values

Page 4: Consolidation of  Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries Acquired at More than Book Value

4-4

Basic Concepts: Parent and SubsidiaryBasic Concepts: Parent and Subsidiary

What happens when you consolidate the parent’s and subsidiary’s books? Remember:

The parent’s investment account is based on the actual acquisition price.

The sub’s books contain only historical book values.

The parent needs to make adjustments for both Balance Sheet, and Income Statement accounts.

Why wasn’t this a problem with created subs? No goodwill No undervalued assets at the time of creation

Page 5: Consolidation of  Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries Acquired at More than Book Value

Basic Concepts: Income Statement ImpactsBasic Concepts: Income Statement Impacts

Big Picture: Essentially, we switch the sub’s books from BV to FMV in the consolidation process.

Too Low(understated)

If expenses are UNDERSTATED, then income is too high (OVERSTATED).To fix the problem, Parent needs to INCREASE expenses.

ExampleExample: Acquisition Price > Book Value: Acquisition Price > Book Value

Pepper Inc., a calendar-year reporting company, acquired 100% of Salt Inc.’s outstanding common stock at a cost of $442,500 on 12/31/X8. The analysis of the parent’s Investment account as of the acquisition date shows:

Page 8: Consolidation of  Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries Acquired at More than Book Value

4-8

Acquisition Price = BV +Identifiable Excess + GW

Results for 20X9 (based on Book Values):

Reported Income $78,000Dividends Declared 45,500

What would the Sub’s income be based on Fair Values?

Lower COGS (because inventory is worth less) $ (6,500)Extra depreciation on equipment 8,500Extra amortization of contract 13,000Total increase in expenses / decrease in income $ 15,000

$63,000

ExampleExample: Acquisition Price > Book Value: Acquisition Price > Book Value

442,500 = 247,000 + 169,500 + 26,000

Page 9: Consolidation of  Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries Acquired at More than Book Value

4-9

Consolidation: Equity MethodConsolidation: Equity Method

The Parent’s initial investment in a sub is based on the FMV of the sub’s net assets (+/- GW).

Equity method entries: Recording share of sub’s income

Recording share of sub’s dividends

They should be based on the same FMV basis. Problem: Sub reports income based on BOOK VALUES

Solution: Parent has to record an adjustment to the income and investment “Equity Method” accounts.

Results for 20X9 (based on Book Values):

Reported Income $78,000Dividends Declared 45,500

Adjustment to Salt’s 20X9 income on Parent’s books:

Lower COGS (because inventory is worth less) $ (6,500)Extra depreciation on equipment 8,500Extra amortization of contract 13,000Total increase in expenses / decrease in income $ 15,000

What entries would Pepper record in its general ledger related to Salt’s income and dividends for 20X9 under the equity method?

1. To record 100% share of Salt’s reported income:

2. To record 100% of Salt’s dividends declared:

3. To record additional expenses (based on FMV):

Book value of net assets = $800

Excess value of identifiable

assets = $200

Goodwill = $500

Assume the BV of Sub’s net assets is $800 and that the FMV of the net assets is $1,000. Finally, assume that the acquisition price was $1,500. The acquisition price consists of three parts:

Page 18: Consolidation of  Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries Acquired at More than Book Value

Understanding Components of Acquisition CostUnderstanding Components of Acquisition Cost

Acquisition FMV of Price = Assets + Goodwill

Key: We need to keep track of each element of the purchase price separately! Why??Why??

FMV of Extra Assets = BV + Value

Acquisition Extra Price = BV + Value + Goodwill

The Consolidation ProcessThe Consolidation Process

When a subsidiary is acquired (instead of created), the consolidation process is more complicated: Must eliminate intercompany items (same) Must update Sub’s assets and liabilities to FMV Must recognize goodwill

Acquired at Less than Fair Value of Net AssetsAcquired at Less than Fair Value of Net Assets

Bargain purchase A business combination where the sum of

the acquisition-date fair values of the consideration given,

any equity interest already held by the acquirer, and

any noncontrolling interest

is less than the amounts at which the identifiable net assets must be valued at the acquisition date as specified by FASB 141R.

The acquirer recognizes a gain for the difference.

Categories of TransactionsCategories of Transactions

Arm’s Length Transactions The only transactions that can be reported in the

consolidated statements. We want to report the results of our interactions

with outside parties!

Non-Arm’s Length Transactions Usually referred to as “related party transactions.” Include all intercompany transactions.

Involving Corporations With management and other employees. With directors and stockholders. With affiliates (controlled entities).

Necessity of Eliminating Intercompany Necessity of Eliminating Intercompany TransactionsTransactions

Eliminate all intercompany transactions in consolidation: Because they are internal transactions from a

can be reported in the consolidated statements.

Push-Down Accounting (an absolute gem) In the subsidiary’s general ledger:

Adjust assets and liabilities to FVbased on the parent’s acquisition price. This establishes a new basis of accounting.

Record goodwill. Record “Revaluation Capital” for the difference

A = L + EX

Revaluation Capital

Nonpush-Down Accounting: The HARDER WayNonpush-Down Accounting: The HARDER Way

Non-Push-Down Accounting: Don’t touch the subsidiary’s general ledger

(treat like a “sacred cow”). Make fair value adjustments and record

goodwill in consolidation (on the worksheets).

Consolidation Consequences: Push-Down vs. Consolidation Consequences: Push-Down vs. Non-Push-DownNon-Push-Down

Push-down accounting: Consolidation effort is minimal (has received the

“Better Book-keeping” stamp of approval).

Non-push-down accounting: Consolidation effort is cumbersome (often a

headache).

The consolidated financial statement amounts are the SAME either way! ONLY the accounting procedures differ Who does the work– parent or sub?

Postacquisition Subsidiary Earnings: Reportable Postacquisition Subsidiary Earnings: Reportable Earnings Under Acquisition MethodEarnings Under Acquisition Method

ONLY the subsidiary’s postacquisition earnings are reported in the consolidated financial statements. For a mid-year acquisition, only consolidate earnings

after the acquisition date. The same is true for dividends declared.

The subsidiary’s preacquisition earnings (included in its retained earnings account) are always eliminated against the parent’s Investment account in consolidation.
