Jarmon Company owns twenty-three percent (23%) of the voting common stock of Kaleski Corp. Jarmon does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operations of Kaleski. What method should Jarmon use to account for its investment in Kaleski? Answer: The fair-value method should be used. Generally, ownership of more than twenty percent (20%) of the voting common stock would be presumed to carry significant influence and would require use of the equity method. The equity method is not appropriate in this case because of the lack of the ability to exercise significant influence.

Which types of transactions, exchanges, or events would indicate that an investor has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operations of an investee? Answer: When an investor has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operations of an investee, the investor should use the equity method to account for the investment. GAAP suggests several events or conditions which would indicate such influence: (1) investor representation on the investee’s board of directors; (2) material transactions between investor and investee; (3) interchange of managerial personnel; (4) technological dependency between investor and investee; and (5) the extent of investor Copyright © 2017 McGraw-Hill Education.

You are auditing a company that owns twenty percent of the voting common stock of another corporation and uses the equity method to account for the investment. How would you verify that the equity method is appropriate in this case? Answer: In order to verify that the equity method is appropriate, the auditor should determine whether the investor is able to exercise significant influence over the operations of the investee. The ability to influence the investee’s operations is the most important criterion for adopting the equity method. The auditor should look for such evidence of significant influence such as: (1) frequent or material intercompany transactions; (2) exchange of managerial personnel; (3) technological interdependency; and (4) investor participation in the decision-making process of the investee.

How does the use of the equity method affect the investor’s financial statements? Answer: The use of the equity method influences the investor’s income statement and balance sheet. On the income statement, the investor’s total revenues will be increased by its share of the investee’s earnings reduced by any amortization of cost in excess of fair value of depreciable net assets. On the balance sheet, the investor’s total assets will include the investment account. The balance of the investment account is increased by the investor’s share of the investee’s income and decreased by investee losses and dividends paid and amortization of depreciable allocations. The investor’s retained earnings are influenced by the investee’s income or loss reported on the investor’s income statement.

[QUESTION] 97. What is the primary objective of the equity method of accounting for an investment? Answer: The objective of the equity method is to reflect the special relationship between investor and investee. The equity method is used when the investor holds a relatively large share of the investee, but not a controlling interest. The large ownership percentage indicates that the investor has the ability to influence the decision-making processes of the investee. Use of the fair-value method would not reflect the relationship between the two parties.

What is the justification for the timing of recognition of income under the equity method? Answer: According to the equity method, the investor should recognize its share of the investee’s income in the same period in which it is earned by the investee. The equity method applies accrual accounting when the investor could exercise significant influence over the investee.

What argument could be made against the equity method? Answer: An argument could be made against the recognition of income under the equity method. The investor is required to recognize its share of the investee’s income even when it is unlikely that the investor will ever receive the entire amount in cash dividends.

Answer: A change to the fair value method is appropriate when the investor can no longer exercise significant influence over the operations of the investee. No retrospective adjustment of previous years’ financial statements or the balance in the investment account is required. The balance in the investment account at the time of the change would be treated prospectively as the cost of the investment.

How should an investor account for, and report, an investee’s other comprehensive income (or loss)? Answer: The investor should account for other comprehensive income or loss by including it in an income statement account that is separate from the Equity in Investee Income account.

What is the primary objective of the fair value method of accounting for an investment? Answer: The investor possesses only a small percentage of an investee and cannot expect to have a significant impact on the operations or decision-making of the investee. Since the shares are bought in anticipation of cash dividends or appreciation of stock market values, dividends received are accounted for as income and the investment is reflected at each balance sheet date at its fair value which is generally the market value at that date.

On that date, Ramp reported assets and liabilities with book values of $2.2 million and $700,000, respectively. A building owned by Ramp had an appraised value of $300,000, although it had a book value of only $120,000. This building had a 12-year remaining life and no salvage value. It was being depreciated on the straight-line basis. Ramp generated net income of $300,000 in 2017 and a loss of $120,000 in 2018. In each of these two years, Ramp paid a cash dividend of $70,000 to its stockholders. During 2017, Ramp sold inventory to Pond that had an original cost of $60,000. The merchandise was sold to Pond for $96,000. Of this balance, $72,000 was resold to outsiders during 2017 and the remainder was sold during 2018. In 2018, Ramp sold inventory to Pond for $180,000. This inventory had cost only $108,000. Pond resold $120,000 of the inventory during 2018 and the rest during 2019. Copyright © 2017 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved.

For acquisition accounting, why are assets and liabilities of the subsidiary consolidated at fair value? Answer: The acquisition transaction is assumed to occur through an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date of the acquisition. Thus identified assets and liabilities acquired have been assigned fair value for the transfer to the acquirer and this is a relevant and faithful representation for consolidation.

Goodwill is often acquired as part of a business combination. Why, when separate incorporation is maintained, does Goodwill not appear on the Parent company's trial balance as a separate account? Answer: While the Goodwill does not appear on the Parent company's books, it is implied as part of the account called Investment in Subsidiary. During the consolidation process, the Investment account is broken down into its component parts. Goodwill, along with other items such as subsidiary fair value adjustments, is then shown separately as part of the consolidated financial statement balances.

consideration obligations are recognized at their present value of the potential obligation as part of the acquisition consideration transferred; (3) When a bargain purchase occurs, the acquirer measures and recognizes the fair values of each of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the combination, and as a result a gain on the bargain purchase is recognized at the acquisition date.

How is contingent consideration accounted for in an acquisition business combination transaction? Answer: The fair value approach of the acquisition method views contingent payments as part of the consideration transferred. Under this view, contingencies have a value to those who receive the consideration and represent measurable obligations of the acquirer. The amount of the contingent consideration is measured as the expected present value of a potential payment and increases the investment value recorded.

Under the partial equity method, the balance in the investment account is increased by the accrual of the subsidiary's income and decreased when the subsidiary pays dividends. The advantage is that the partial equity method is simpler than the equity method because amortization of excess fair value allocations is not recorded in the parent’s internal records. The disadvantage is that the the full accrual of the subsidiary’s operating results are not reflected in the internal records of the parent and amortizations would then need to be reflected in the consolidation process. Not having the adjustment in the internal records prior to consolidation requires allocating the excess

portion of the acquisition-date fair values and calculating amortizations on these allocations at the time of consolidation. In years subsequent to the first year after the date of acquisition, establishment of an appropriate beginning retained earnings figure becomes a significant goal of the consolidation. To convert the parent’s beginning of the year retained earnings balance to a full-accrual basis, the prior years’ amortizations are entered on the consolidation worksheet, so that all of the subsidiary’s operational results for the prior periods are included in the consolidation.

What should an entity evaluate when making an initial impairment assessment of an intangible asset (other than goodwill)? Answer: An entity may perform qualitative assessments for its indefinite-lived intangible assets. If an entity elects to perform a qualitative assessment, it must examine relevant events and circumstances to determine whether it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Factors to consider include costs of using the intangible asset, legal and regulatory factors, as well as industry and market considerations. If the assessment indicates impairment is not likely, no further tests are required.

Yules Co. acquired Noel Co. and applied the acquisition method. Yules decided to use the partial equity method to account for the investment. The current balance in the investment account is $416,000. Describe in words how this balance was derived. Answer: The initial balance in the investment account would be the acquisition value implied by the fair value of consideration transferred. This would not include consideration paid for costs to effect the combination. After the acquisition, the balance in the account is increased by the parent's accrual of the subsidiary's income and decreased by the dividends paid by the subsidiary.

IFRS. Answer: Both U.S. GAAP and IFRS require goodwill recognition in business combinations in which the fair value of the consideration paid is more than the net fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed. Following acquisition, an assessment for goodwill impairment is required at least annually under both sets of standards. If there are indicators that reflect a possible impairment, the assessment is required to be performed more often. Both standards provide that once goodwill impairments are recognized, they will no longer be recoverable. There are differences, however, with respect to the way goodwill impairment is tested for and recognized. Specifically, goodwill allocation, impairment testing, and the determination of impairment loss are different under U.S. GAAP and IFRS.

On January 1, 2016, Rand Corp. issued shares of its common stock to acquire all of the outstanding common stock of Spaulding Inc. Spaulding's book value was only $140,000 at the time, but Rand issued 12,000 shares having a par value of $1 per share and a fair value of $20 per share. Rand was willing to convey these shares because it felt that buildings (ten-year life) were undervalued on Spaulding's records by $60,000 while equipment (five-year life) was undervalued by $25,000. Any consideration transferred over fair value of identified net assets acquired is assigned to goodwill. Following are the individual financial records for these two companies for the year ended December 31, 2019. Rand

Answer: Goodwill Impairment Test—Step 1 For the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared to its carrying value. If the fair value (including goodwill) exceeds the carrying value, the goodwill of the entity is not considered impaired and Step 2 is not required.

Apple Banana Carrot

Total Fair Value (w/GW) $525,000 450,000 215,000

Carrying Value (w/GW) > $515,000 > 433,000 < 230,000

[QUESTION] 121. How is the goodwill impairment process simplified for private companies? ANSWER: The goodwill impairment process is simplified in two ways for private companies. First, if there is a triggering event, the unamortized balance of goodwill is required to be assessed for impairment. A triggering event is defined as any event or change in circumstances that may cause the fair value of the acquired entity, or reporting unit, to decline to an amount less than its carrying amount. However, there are no requirements to re-measure each of the entity’s (or reporting unit’s) separate assets and liabilities at current fair values in order to calculate a residual implied value for goodwill. This rule was adopted in order to save costs and streamline the process. Goodwill impairment loss is calculated as the amount of the excess (if any) of the fair value of the acquired entity over its total carrying amount. Impairment loss is limited to the remaining unamortized balance in the goodwill account. Second, private companies may choose to designate and test goodwill for impairment at either the entity level, or the reporting unit level. This election must be made at the time the alternative goodwill method is adopted by the entity.

Under what conditions will Beta be required to prepare consolidated financial statements? Answer: Beta will be required to prepare consolidated financial statements if it has control of Shedds. If Beta has more than 50% of the voting common stock of Shedds, it has control and must prepare consolidated financial statements. Occasionally, ownership of less than 50% of the voting common stock can confer control. In this situation, an argument can be made that the company with control should prepare consolidated financial statements, although such reporting is not currently required. Learning Objective: 04-02 Topic: Acquisition-date―Fair value of subsidiary PreDifficulty: 2 Medium Blooms: Understand AACSB: Reflective Thinking AACSB: Communication AICPA BB: Critical Thinking AICPA FN: Measurement [QUESTION] 96. Why is it important to know if the parent paid a premium to acquire control of a subsidiary? Answer: It is necessary to ascertain the subsidiary’s total fair value at the acquisition date so that the value can be appropriately attributed to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. If there is a control premium, then the total fair value of the subsidiary cannot be implied by the parent’s consideration transferred unless the premium amount is first removed from the consideration value. If separate share fair values are specifically known for the shares acquired by the parent and the shares held by the noncontrolling interest, then the total fair value can be directly calculated. In either calculation, the

control premium affects primarily the parents’ shares acquired, and thus goodwill is disproportionately (relative to the ownership percentages) allocated to the controlling and noncontrolling interests. This disproportionate allocation of goodwill is essential to know because the resulting allocation of goodwill affects Entry A for the worksheet and thus affects the resulting balance of the noncontrolling interest reported on the consolidated balance sheet.

or by a separate value calculation. The total acquisition fair value is then the sum of both parent and noncontrolling interest shares. The fair value of the net assets acquired is apportioned to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. Then, the difference between acquisition fair value and relative fair value of net assets acquired is goodwill attributed respectively to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest.

Answer: If control is maintained after the sale, then the difference between the sales proceeds and the book value is an adjustment to the parent’s owners’ equity. If control is not maintained, then such difference is a gain or loss on sale of investment. In either situation, the carrying value of the investment should be on the equity method basis in order to calculate the proper entry for the sale. Therefore, if Prevatt adjusts the carrying value of its investment, it is in order to bring an initial value method or partial equity method investment basis to an equity method basis.

Answer: If control is maintained after the sale, then the difference between the sales proceeds and the book value is an adjustment to the parent’s owners’ equity (APIC). If control is not maintained, then such difference is a gain or loss on sale of investment. In either situation, the book value of the investment should be on the equity method basis in order to calculate the proper entry for the sale.

Beginning NCI = $270,000 + $29,460 (income) - $16,380 (divs) + $38,280 (income) - $18,480 (divs) = $302,880 Goodwill: Vacker paid $650,000 which includes $20,000 premium. Thus, $630,000 represents 70% of the shares without the premium. $630,000/.70 = $900,000 value of the company without the premium. 30% x $900,000 = $270,000. The total fair value of the company is thus $650,000 that Vacker paid + $270,000 value of the noncontrolling interest shares = $920,000.

Varton Corp. acquired all of the voting common stock of Caleb Co. on January 1, 2018. Varton owned some land with a book value of $84,000 that was sold to Caleb for its fair value of $120,000. How should this transfer be accounted for by the consolidated entity? Answer: Caleb and Varton are in substance one entity; although in legal form they are separate. The “sale” of land by Varton should be regarded as intra-entity transfer. No gain on the transfer should be recognized in the consolidated financial statements since the intra-entity transfer is merely the internal

movement of asset, an event that creates no net change in the financial position of the business combination taken as a whole.. Because Caleb recognized a gain in its income statement, the consolidation process must eliminate the gain. Also, Caleb's separate balance sheet showed the land at an amount greater than its cost to the combined entity. The consolidation entry must reduce land to its cost.

During 2018, Edwards Co. sold inventory to its parent company, Forsyth Corp. Forsyth still owned the entire amount of inventory purchased at the end of 2018. Why must the gross profit on the sale be deferred when consolidated financial statements are prepared at the end of 2018? Answer: A sale of inventory by a subsidiary to its parent is more accurately understood as a transfer within the entity. Since Forsyth still owned the inventory at the end of the year, the intra-entity

transfer is merely the internal movement of asset, an event that creates no net change in the financial position of the business combination taken as a whole. If recognition of the gross profit on the transfer was allowed, the parent would be able to manipulate consolidated net income and consolidated net assets by transferring inventory between parent and subsidiary.

How does a gain on an intra-entity transfer of equipment affect the calculation of a noncontrolling interest? Answer: If the equipment is sold by the parent to the subsidiary, the transfer of the equipment does not affect the calculation of the noncontrolling interest's share of the subsidiary's net income. When the sale of equipment is upstream, the gain on the sale must be subtracted from the subsidiary's income, and this elimination may be allocated between the controlling interest and noncontrolling interest share of the subsidiary’s earnings.

How do upstream and downstream inventory transfers differ in their effect in a year-end consolidation? Answer: If the sale of inventory is downstream (from parent to subsidiary), any unrecognized gross profit on the transfer does not affect the calculation of noncontrolling interest. When the transfer is upstream (from the subsidiary to the parent), the gross profit on the transfer is associated with the subsidiary. The gross profit on goods that the parent still owns should be deducted from the subsidiary's income which may be allocated between the controlling interest and the noncontrolling interest's share of the subsidiary's earnings.

No consolidation entry for the sale of the land was made at the end of 2018. What errors will this omission cause in the consolidated financial statements? Answer: Consolidation Entry for 2018 Gain on Sale of Land XXX Land XXX This omission causes both the amounts for Land and Gain on Sale of Land to be overstated in the consolidated financial statements, and ultimately, Total Assets and Ending Retained Earnings may be overstated as well.

Why do intra-entity transfers between the component companies of a business combination occur so frequently? Answer: One reason for the significant volume and frequency of intra-entity transfers is that many business combinations are specifically organized so that the companies can provide products for each other. This design is intended to benefit the business combination as a whole due to the economies provided by such vertical integration. In effect, more profit can be generated by the combination if one member is able to buy from another, as opposed to an outside party.

AICPA: FN Measurement [QUESTION] 103. Fraker, Inc. owns 90 percent of Richards, Inc. and bought $200,000 of Richards’ inventory in 2018. The transfer profit was equal to 30 percent of the sales price. When preparing consolidated financial statements, what amount of these sales is eliminated? Answer: Regardless of the ownership percentage or the markup, the $200,000 was simply an intra-entity asset transfer for consolidation purposes. Thus, within the consolidation process, the entire $200,000 should be eliminated from both the Sales and the Purchases (Inventory) accounts. Learning Objective: 05-02 Topic: Eliminate intra-entity sales and purchases Difficulty: 1 Easy Blooms: Analyze AACSB: Analytical Thinking AACSB: Communication AICPA: BB Critical Thinking AICPA: FN Measurement [QUESTION] 104. What is an intra-entity gross profit on a transfer of inventory, and how is it treated on a consolidation worksheet? Answer: In intra-entity transfers, a transfer price often exceeds the underlying cost of the inventory. Hence, the seller recognizes gross profit on its books that, with respect to the entire controlled group, is deferred until the asset is consumed or sold to an outside party. Any unrecognized intra-entity gross profit on merchandise still held by the buyer must be eliminated for consolidated financial statement purposes. With respect to the year of transfer, this consolidation procedure requires unrecognized intra-entity gross profit be deducted from the inventory account on the balance sheet, and from the ending inventory balance within cost of goods sold. In the year following the transfer (if the goods are resold or consumed), the unrecognized intra-entity gross profit must again be deducted for purposes of the consolidated financial statements. This second reduction is recorded on the worksheet as a reduction to the beginning inventory component of cost of goods sold, as well as to the beginning retained earnings balance of the original seller. This functions to defer the recognition of gross profit from the year of transfer to the year the underlying asset is consumed or sold to an unrelated third party. If the transfer was made on a downstream basis, and the parent company applied the equity method of accounting, a subsequent year adjustment must be recorded in the subsidiary investment account as opposed to the retained earnings account.

What is the purpose of the adjustments to depreciation expense within the consolidation process when there has been an intra-entity transfer of a depreciable asset? Answer: Depreciable assets are often transferred between the members of a controlled group for amounts in excess of book value. The buyer in turn calculates depreciation expense based on this inflated transfer price as opposed to a price based on historical cost. For purposes of consolidated financial statement reporting, depreciation should be calculated based solely on historical cost figures. As a result, for consolidated financial statement reporting purposes, for each period an adjustment to the depreciation amounts recorded by the buyer are required to reduce the expense reported on the consolidated financial statements to a cost based figure.

Hamilton, Inc. (“AHI”) provides a loan for $3,000,000 to Reynolds Manufacturing Corp. (“RMC”). The terms of the loan require payment of the loan no later than January 1, 2023. RMC was in terrible financial condition and would cease operations absent securing a loan. Prior to requesting a loan from AHI, RMC exhausted all other possible avenues for funding. The terms of the loan agreement include provisions that require RMC to provide AHI with the following from January 1, 2018 through January 1, 2023: (i) 6 percent annual interest on the principal amount of the loan, which reflects a market rate of interest; (ii) 100 percent participation rights to RMC’s profits less $17,000 in a guaranteed annual dividend to RMC’s common shareholders; and (iii) complete decision-making authority over RMC’s operations and financing decisions.. At the end of the term of the loan, AHI is given the right to acquire RMC or, in its discretion, extend the term of the original loan an additional 5 years. At the date the loan was extended to RMC, RMC’s common stock had an estimated fair value of $136,000 and a book value of $40,000. The $96,000 difference was attributed to an asset with a 3-year useful life remaining (“Asset”). At January 1, 2018, the balance sheets for AHI and RMC are as follows:

AICPA: BB Critical Thinking AICPA: FN Measurement [QUESTION] 98. Parent Corporation recently acquired some of its subsidiary's outstanding bonds at an amount which required the recognition of a loss. In what ways could the loss be allocated? Which allocation would you recommend? Why? Answer: The loss could be assigned to the subsidiary since it originally issued the bonds. The loss could be assigned to the parent since the parent acquired the bonds. A method could be applied to divide the loss between the parent and subsidiary. Finally, the loss could be assigned to the parent because the parent controls the combined entity. The loss should probably be assigned to the parent, without regard to who issued and who purchased the bonds, since the parent is responsible for decision-making for the combined entity.

Jet Corp. acquired all of the outstanding shares of Nittle Inc. on January 1, 2016, for $644,000 in cash. Of this consideration transferred, $42,000 was attributed to equipment with a ten-year remaining useful life. Goodwill of $56,000 had also been identified. Jet applied the partial equity method so that income would be accrued each period based solely on the earnings reported by the subsidiary. On January 1, 2019, Jet reported $280,000 in bonds outstanding with a book value of $263,200. Nittle purchased half of these bonds on the open market for $135,800. During 2019, Jet began to sell merchandise to Nittle. During that year, inventory costing $112,000 was transferred at a price of $140,000.

What are the benefits or advantages of filing a consolidated income tax return? Answer: When a consolidated income tax return is filed, intra-entity profits are not taxed until realized, either by use or by sale to an outsider. On separate returns, intra-entity profits are taxed in the period the sale is made within the combined entity. Therefore, filing a consolidated return can delay payment of income taxes. A second advantage is that, on a consolidated return, losses incurred by one company within the affiliated group can offset taxable income recognized by other members, reducing the total income tax liability of the combined entity.

How is the amortization of goodwill treated for income tax purposes? How does the amortization of goodwill affect deferred income taxes? Answer: In a business combination, goodwill is tested annually for impairment for financial statement purposes. The Internal Revenue Code allows the deduction of goodwill and other purchased intangibles over a 15-year period. Because the taxable income and financial income differ, the presence of goodwill causes a temporary difference that necessitates the recognition of deferred income taxes.

[QUESTION] 97. Gamma Co. owns 80% of Delta Corp., and Delta Corp. owns 15% of Gamma Co. The two companies use the treasury stock approach to account for mutual ownership. How should Delta Corp.'s ownership interest in Gamma Co. be accounted for in the consolidation? Answer: Under the treasury stock approach, the parent's common stock owned by a subsidiary is treated in consolidated financial statements as being no longer outstanding. The consolidation process will eliminate the Investment in Gamma cost of shares and replace it as Treasury Stock of Gamma, the parent. The dividends received by Delta will be eliminated; thereby increasing Gamma’s retained earnings as if these dividends had not been paid.

Explain how the treasury stock approach treats shares of the parent's common stock that are owned by the subsidiary and the rationale behind the approach. Answer: According to the treasury stock approach, acquisition of some of the parent's common stock by the subsidiary is no different than acquisition by the parent itself. Since treasury stock would be recorded if the parent bought some of its own stock, treasury stock should be recognized during the consolidation process when mutual ownership exists.

T Corp. owns several subsidiaries that are eligible for inclusion on a consolidated income tax return, but T Corp. decided that each company in the group will file a separate return. Under what conditions would there be minimal advantage in filing a consolidated income tax return? Answer: There might be fewer disadvantages to filing separate income tax returns if there are few intraentity transactions, and if the companies, which make up the combined entity, are generally profitable. When there are frequent intra-entity transactions, filing a consolidated income tax return postpones taxation on intra-entity gains until they are realized by use or sale to an outsider. Thus, the consolidated return postpones the taxation of some income. When one of the companies records a loss, a consolidated return allows the loss to be offset against other companies' profits, reducing the total income tax obligation for the combined entity. The filing of separate returns allows the companies more flexibility in their choice of accounting methods and tax year.

Entry Two – To record income for the year: 30% of $400,000, reported balance:

Entry Three – To record the collection of dividends from Nopple Co.: 120,000 shares × $.40 per share:

Entry Four – To record income tax for the year: Current income taxes must be paid by Youder on the twenty percent of dividends ($9,600 = 20% of $48,000) that is taxable now. This current liability is $3,840 ($9,600 at the 40% rate). Furthermore, a deferred income tax liability also exists. On Youder’s accounting records, the Equity Income - Investment in Nopple Co. account balance exceeds its income tax basis by $72,000 which is the undistributed earnings: ($120,000 - $48,000). Since this difference will be erased by the payment of future dividends, the eighty percent dividends-received deduction is applicable ($57,600 = 80% of 72,000). Thus, future taxable income will be increased by $14,400 ($72,000 - $57,600). Based on an income tax rate of forty percent, the deferred income tax liability is $5,760.

Income tax of Dice Inc. - deferred Undistributed income ($160,000 - $60,000) Dice Inc.'s ownership percentage Dice Inc.'s share of undistributed income Percentage dividends-received deduction Potential dividends-received deduction

$ 100,000 × 40% $ 40,000 × 80% $ (32,000)

Potential dividends to be taxed ($40,000 - $32,000) Effective income tax rate Income tax payable - deferred

Income tax expense - current Income tax expense – deferred Income tax payable Deferred tax liability

8,000 35% 2,800

131,180 2,800 131,180 2,800

(B.) If Dice expects to sell this investment, the undistributed earnings will be realized through an increase in sales price rather than through dividend payments. Thus, no future dividends received deduction is available if the investment is to be sold; the deferred income tax effect must be calculated without the potential eighty percent reduction:

Income tax expense - current Income tax expense – deferred Income tax payable Deferred tax liability

Patton’s operating income excludes income from the investment in Stevens, but includes $150,000 of gross profit on intra-entity transfers of inventory and the inventory is still held by Stevens at the end of the year. Patton uses the initial value method to account for the investment in Stevens. [QUESTION] REFER TO: 07-19 115. Assume Patton owns 90 percent of the voting stock of Stevens and files a consolidated income tax return. What amount of income taxes would be paid? Answer:

Intra-entity gross profit and dividends are not relevant because a consolidated return is filed.

Assume Patton owns 90 percent of the voting stock of Stevens and they each file separate income tax returns. What amount of total income tax would be paid? Answer: Total taxes to be paid are $720,000. Stevens would have to pay $120,000 (30% of its $400,000 operating income.) Patton would pay $600,000 or 30% of its $2,000,000 operating income. The gross profit remaining in inventory form intra-entity transfers is not deferred because separate returns are being filed. Intra-entity dividends paid are not taxable because the parties still qualify as an affiliated group even though separate returns are being filed.

Learning Objective: 09-01 Topic: Concepts of foreign currency and exchange Difficulty: 1 Easy Blooms: Remember AACSB: Reflective Thinking AICPA: BB Global AICPA: FN Measurement [QUESTION] 77. How is the fair value of a Forward Contract determined by U.S. GAAP? Answer: The fair value of a Forward Contract is determined by comparing the difference between the contracted forward rate and the currently available forward rate for contracts expiring on the same date. On the initial date of the contract, this would result in a fair value of $0. As time passes, the currently available forward rate will likely fluctuate relative to the “fixed” contracted forward rate, creating a difference that must be accounted for as a gain or loss on the forward contract. A contract with a net gain over its life is recorded on the balance sheet as a Forward Contract Asset. A contract with a net loss over its life is recorded on the balance sheet as a Forward Contract Liability.

If most of the subsidiary's sales and purchases are in dollars, the dollar may be the logical choice for the functional currency. If there are many transactions between the subsidiary and the parent, and if most of the subsidiary's financing comes from the U.S., the dollar may be a better choice than the euro.

Answer: Remeasurement is needed for transactions denominated in a currency other than the entity's functional currency. A U.S. company that engages in transactions in other countries may have to remeasure some of its transactions. The implicit justification for remeasurement is that foreign currency transactions affecting monetary assets and liabilities have a direct effect on the entity's cash flows. There will be direct effects on future cash flows in the functional currency, and thus an effect on net income. Learning Objective: 10-01 Topic: Translation concepts―Temporal method Difficulty: 2 Medium Blooms: Evaluate AACSB: Diversity AACSB: Communication AACSB: Analytical Thinking AICPA: BB Global AICPA: FN Decision Making [QUESTION] 87. Contrast the purpose of remeasurement with the purpose of translation. Answer: The purpose of translation is to transform a subsidiary's financial statements, prepared in its functional currency, into the reporting currency of the parent. The purpose of remeasurement is to restate transactions from one currency into the functional currency of the entity. Remeasurement is also required when a subsidiary's financial statements have been denominated in a currency other than the subsidiary's functional currency.

Answer: Five commonly accepted factors influence financial reporting practices: (1) legal system, (2) taxation, (3) financing system, (4) inflation, and (5) political and economic ties. Because of the differences in these five factors from one country to another, and because international standards had not been created when many individual country's standards were created, countries continue to have unique financial reporting practices and standards.

The major providers of financing in some countries are stockholders, while other countries predominantly use banks as the main financing source. What difference does it make to accounting disclosures in comparing a company from one of each of those countries? Answer: When banks dominate financing, there is less pressure for public information and disclosures. However, as companies become more reliant upon equity, demand for information increases. Therefore, the disclosures in countries whose main providers of financing are banks are significantly less than those disclosures in countries dependent upon stockholders' equity.

What are recognition differences in financial reporting and what would be an example of a recognition difference between IFRS and U.S. GAAP? Answer: Recognition differences relate to whether an item is recognized or not, how it is recognized, or when it is recognized. An example of recognition differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP exists for the recognition of research and development costs. U.S. GAAP requires that research and development costs must be expensed immediately. The only exception relates to costs incurred in developing computer software, which must be capitalized when several restrictive criteria are met. IFRS (IAS 38) also requires immediate expensing of all research costs. Development costs, on the other hand, must be recognized as an internally generated intangible asset when certain criteria are met. These costs are amortized over their useful life not to exceed 20 years.

What are measurement differences in financial reporting and what would be an example of a difference between IFRS and U.S. GAAP?? Answer: Measurement differences result in different amounts being recognized in the financial statements from using different measurement methods. An example of measurement differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP exists for the measurement of a contingent liability. For example, when it is determined under both sets of accounting standards that a contingent liability needs to be recognized, and a range of possible cash outflows exists, IFRS requires measurement of the liability at the midpoint of the range when all points in the range are equally likely. However, U.S. GAAP requires the liability to be measured at the low end of the range of values.

Topic: IFRS–US GAAP differences―Classification Topic: IFRS to US GAAP―Conversion adjustments Difficulty: 2 Medium Blooms: Apply AACSB: Knowledge Application AACSB: Diversity AICPA: BB Global AICPA: FN Measurement Problems: [QUESTION] 63. Principal Company is a U.S.-based company that prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Principal reported net income of $ 2,600,000 in 2018 and stockholders’ equity of $12,000,000 at December 31, 2018. Principal wants to determine the reporting impact of switching to IFRS. The following three items would create differences in financial reporting: 1) At December 31, 2018, management had determined that a contingent liability was reasonably possible with regard to a defective product and Principal disclosed an amount of $80,000 for this possibility. However, under IFRS, the likelihood of occurrence of an outflow of resources to settle the liability was considered probable. (Ignore income tax.) 2) Principal acquired a building at the beginning of 2016 at a cost of $5,000,000. The building has an estimated useful life of 20 years, an estimated residual value of $1,000,000, and is being depreciated on a straight-line basis. On January 1, 2018, the building has a fair value of $5,500,000. There is no change in the estimated useful life or residual value. In a switch to IFRS, Principal would use the revaluation model in IAS 16 to determine the carrying value of property, plant, and equipment subsequent to acquisition. 3) In 2018, Principal incurred $800,000 of research and development for a new product, of which 35% relates to development activities subsequent to the point at which criteria indicating the creation of an intangible asset had been met. As of the end of 2018, development of the new product had not been completed. Required: 1) Prepare a schedule reconciling net income under U.S. GAAP to net income under IFRS for the year ended December 31, 2018. 2) Prepare a schedule reconciling stockholders’ equity under U.S. GAAP to stockholders’ equity under IFRS at December 31, 2018. Answer:

1) Net income U.S. GAAP Loss from defective product Building revaluation - depreciation Deferred development costs Net income IFRS 2) Stockholders’ equity U.S. GAAP

REFER TO: 13-07 75. How much cash would have been paid to an unsecured non-priority creditor who was owed a total of $1,300 by Mount Inc.? (Round the payout percentage to a whole number.) Answer: The statement of realization and liquidation prepared in Item 13-07 indicated that $105,300 in cash remained. However, $33,800 of this amount had to be distributed to the liabilities with priority, leaving only $71,500 for the unsecured non-priority creditors. Since these unsecured liabilities amounted to $241,800, about 30% ($71,500 ÷ $241,800) of each debt would have been paid. Thus a creditor holding a $1,300 claim would have received approximately $390.

A partnership does not sell capital stock and does not have a retained earnings account. Each partner will have a capital account and a drawing account. On the balance sheet, the balance in each of the partner's capital accounts should be reported. The accountant for a partnership must divide income or loss among partners, following the provisions of the Articles of Partnership. Income tax accounting differs between corporations and partnerships. A corporation is a taxable entity and must file an income tax return. A partnership is not a taxable entity but is required to file an informational return that reports the various amounts of revenues and expenses attributed to each partner. Learning Objective: 14-01 Topic: Advantages and disadvantages of partnerships Difficulty: 2 Medium Blooms: Understand AACSB: Communication AICPA: BB Legal AICPA: FN Measurement [QUESTION] 68. Why are the terms of the Articles of Partnership important to partners? Answer: The Articles of Partnership contain terms that help to protect the interests of each partner and the longevity and profitability of the business. One of the most important terms in the Articles of Partnership is the provision for division of income or loss. The amount of income or loss assigned to partners affects the balances in their capital accounts and may affect the amount of withdrawals the partners can make and the assets they receive upon the liquidation of the partnership. The terms in the Articles of Partnership help to prevent one partner from taking advantage of other partners. Learning Objective: 14-02 Copyright © 2017 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved.

Topic: Articles of partnership Difficulty: 2 Medium Blooms: Understand AACSB: Communication AICPA: BB Legal AICPA: FN Risk Analysis [QUESTION] 69. Brown and Green are forming a business as partners. If they do not create a formal written partnership agreement, what risks are they exposing themselves to? Answer: Due to the fact that business partners are exposed to unlimited liability for their actions, and the actions of their partners, they are advised to document the terms governing the partnership. While a partnership may operate in accordance with an informal, undocumented agreement, the Articles of Partnership documents agreements made between partners regarding the operation of the partnership. By documenting these terms in writing, risk and liability exposure may be limited, providing each partner with protection of his or her interests. If a partnership becomes insolvent, any or all of the partners may be required to use personal assets to settle partnership liabilities. To limit this individual liability exposure, the Articles of Partnership can require that each partner maintain his or her investment in the partnership and to meet other responsibilities, such as working in the business. With a formal written agreement, each partner would have recourse if another partner does not fulfill the terms in the Articles of Partnership.

What theoretical argument could be made against the recognition of goodwill when there is a change in the ownership of a partnership? Answer: Goodwill should be recognized only when a business is purchased in an arms-length transaction — a transaction between independent parties. Generally, partners are not independent parties. Transactions between partners, or between a partner and the partnership, may be influenced by factors other than fair value and bargaining between independent parties. For example, if one partner has been causing trouble for a partnership, the other partners might agree to pay more than fair value to convince that partner to leave the business. The amount of goodwill that could be calculated for such a transaction would not be an indication of the fair value of the business.

AICPA: FN Measurement [QUESTION] 71. Under what circumstances does a partner's balance in his or her capital account have practical consequences for the partner? Answer: The most direct practical consequence of a partner's capital account balance occurs when the partnership is liquidated. After assets are sold and liabilities are paid, each partner receives the balance in his or her capital account. The balance in the capital account may also influence the division of income or loss each year and could affect the amount of cash each partner is allowed to withdraw from the partnership.

However, total capital before Looney’s

payment to the existing partners is $180,000 ($100,000 + $80,000). Thus, goodwill is $60,000 ($240,000 –$180,000) which is attributed to Jipsom and Klark in a 2:3 ratio = 2/5 ($24,000) to Jipsom and 3/5 ($36,000) to Klark (first journal entry). Jipsoms’ capital balance becomes $104,000 and Klark’s capital balance becomes $136,000. Looney receives a 30% interest of each which is $31,200 + $40,800 = $72,000 (second entry).

Norr and Caylor agreed to the following procedure for sharing profits and losses: - 12% interest on the yearly beginning capital balance - $10 per hour of work that can be billed to the partnership's clients - the remainder divided in a 3:2 ratio The Articles of Partnership specified that each partner should withdraw no more than $1,000 per month, which is accounted as direct reduction of that partner’s capital balance. For 2017, the partnership's income was $70,000. Norr had 1,000 billable hours, and Caylor worked 1,400 billable hours. In 2018, the partnership's income was $24,000, and Norr and Caylor worked 800 and 1,200 billable hours respectively. Each partner withdrew $1,000 per month throughout 2017 and 2018.

Using the bonus method, determine the balances for each of the five partners after Eden joins the partnership. Answer: Eden's contribution of $49,000 into the partnership raises the total partnership net assets to $400,000. Eden's capital account is credited, by agreement, for 25% of the partnership's total tangible assets, or $100,000. The $51,000 bonus to Eden is allocated in the original ¼ interest from each existing partner.

Profits and losses have previously been split according to the following percentages: Adams, 15%; Barnes, 35%; Cordas, 30%; and Davis, 20%. After Eden made his investment, what were the individual capital balances? Feedback: Eden's contribution of $71,500 will go to the original four partners, not into the partnership. $71,500 = 20% of the implied partnership value. $71,500 ÷ .20 = 357,500 = the implied total capital of the partnership. However, total capital before Eden’s payment to the existing partners is $351,000

AICPA: BB Legal AICPA: FN Measurement Feedback: The resulting deficit of $8,000 is after depleting Creighton’s capital account balance of $130,000. Thus, a total of $138,000 was allocated to reduce Creighton’s capital account balance. Since Creighton was allocated one-half of the total reduction, the total allocation of expenses and losses was $276,000 of which $12,000 was for liquidation expenses, leaving a total loss on the sale of non-cash assets of $264,000. The non-cash assets were sold for $264,000 less than book value = sale of non-cash assets for $170,000. The result is provided as: [Non-Cash Assets BV $434,000 – Cash Received $170,000] + Liquidation Expenses $12,000 = Loss on Non-Cash Assets ($276,000) × 50% = Loss to Abrams ($138,000) – Capital Account Balance $130,000 = Creighton’s Deficit $8,000.

Keaton, Lewis, and Meador share profits and losses in a ratio of 2:4:4. [QUESTION] REFER TO: 15-02 5. Assume that noncash assets were sold for $58,000 and liquidation expenses in the amount of $10,000 were incurred. If Lewis was personally insolvent and could not contribute any assets to the partnership, and Keaton and Meador were both solvent, what amount of cash would Keaton receive from the distribution of partnership assets? A) $0. B) $56,000. C) $57,600. D) $59,600. E) $60,000. Answer: B Learning Objective: 15-03 Topic: Statement of liquidation―Deficit balance Difficulty: 3 Hard Blooms: Apply AACSB: Knowledge Application AICPA: BB Legal AICPA: FN Measurement Feedback: Proceeds from sale of noncash assets in the amount of $58,000 results in a total loss of $152,000 (BV noncash assets ($210,000) less FV of assets ($58,000) = $152,000). The allocation of this loss is as follows: Keaton ($152,000 × 20% = $30,400); Lewis ($152,000 × 40% = $60,800); Meador ($152,000 × 40% = $60,800). Each partner’s allocation of liquidation expenses are calculated as follows: Keaton ($10,000 × 20% = $2,000); Lewis ($10,000 × 40% = $4,000); Meador ($10,000 × 40% = $4,000).

Capital account balances, after the allocation of these losses, were as follows: Keaton ($90,000 $30,400 (Loss on Noncash Assets) - $2,000 (Liquidation Expenses) = $57,600); Lewis ($60,000 $60,800 (Loss on Noncash Assets) - $4,000 (Liquidation Expenses) = Deficit ($4,800)); Meador ($120,000 - $60,800 (Loss on Noncash Assets) - $4,000 (Liquidation Expenses) = $55,200. Allocation of Lewis’ $4,800 Deficit to Keaton and Meador: $1,600 to Keaton ($4,800 × 1/3 = $1,600) and $3,200 to Meador ($4,800 × 2/3 = $3,600). Keaton’s ending Capital account balance: $57,600 - $1,600 = $56,000.

Distribution before liquidating assets: $15,000 to Henry and $10,000 to Jacobs. Liquidating expenses paid and allocated as loss to partners in 2:4:4 ratio of $1,000 to Henry and $2,000 each to Isaac and Jacobs. Capital account balances before sale of noncash assets: Henry $80,000 – $15,000 – $1,000 = $64,000. Isaacs $110,000 – no distribution – $2,000 = $108,000. Jacobs $140,000 – $10,000 – $2,000 = $128,000. Noncash assets sold for $120,000 = Loss of $180,000 ($300,000 – $120,000). Loss allocated in 2:4:4 ratio of $36,000 to Henry, and $72,000 each to Isaac and Jacobs. Updated balances for safe payments = Henry $64,000 – Loss ($36,000) = $28,000. Isaac $108,000 – Loss ($72,000) = $36,000. Jacobs $128,000 – Loss ($72,000) + $56,000. Alternatively, the predistribution plan would be for the first $10,000 to go to Henry and the next $45,000 to go to Henry and Jacobs in a 1:2 ratio. Thus, if $120,000 is available, Henry receives $10,000 + $15,000 (1/3 × $45,000) and Jacobs receives $30,000 (2/3 × $45,000) = $55,000.

What events or circumstances might force the termination of a partnership and liquidation of its assets? Answer: There are many events or situations that can give rise to the termination of a partnership and the liquidation of its assets. The partnership may be insolvent, or there may be dissension among the partners that precipitates a dissolution. A partnership might also be liquidated if it was formed to accomplish a specific purpose and has no further usefulness. Liquidation of the partnership may be required whenever there is a large claim against the partnership's assets. Such a claim might occur through the loss of a lawsuit and the payment of a large judgment, the insolvency of a partner, or the death or retirement of a partner.

Describe the content of a journal entry to record a gain or loss resulting from the liquidation of a partnership asset for cash. Answer: To record a gain or loss resulting from the liquidation of a partnership asset for cash, cash is debited and the asset is removed from the books with a credit to the asset and a debit for any contra-account related to the asset. Any resulting gain or loss arising from the liquidation of the asset would be allocated to the partners' capital accounts using the applicable profit and loss sharing ratio, or the agreed-upon formula as documented in the partnership agreement. A loss would be debited in the appropriate amount to each partner’s capital account, and a gain would be credited in the appropriate amount to each partner’s capital account.

Why is a preliminary distribution of partnership assets prepared? Answer: A preliminary distribution of assets is prepared to calculate safe payments to partners so that, in a liquidation taking place over time in installments, cash can be distributed intermittently without waiting until all assets are liquidated. Learning Objective: 15-04 Topic: Schedule of liquidation―Safe capital balances Difficulty: 1 Easy Blooms: Remember AACSB: Communication AICPA: BB Legal AICPA: FN Measurement [QUESTION] 47. What is a safe cash payment? Answer: A safe cash payment is a fair allocation of funds made available before liquidation has been completed. Safe cash is the amount of cash in excess of liabilities and estimated liquidation expenses. Safe cash payments are based on the assumption that any capital deficits will prove to be a total loss to the partnership and must be absorbed by the remaining partners based on their relative profit and loss ratio. It is also assumed that all subsequent events will result in maximum losses, that all partners are personally insolvent, and no cash will be received upon disposition of noncash assets.

What are third party payors? Why are their interests important in accounting for health care entities? Answer: Third party payors are entities that guarantee payment for a patient’s services, and include insurance companies and Federal programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. Third-party payors pay health care entities for a high percentage of the services provided to patients in the United States and amounts and the amounts they pay are usually less than the health care entity’s full established rates for those services. Thus, the large amount of payments from third-party payors for health care, as well as the large amounts of adjustments the health care entity must make for the amounts received that are less than the established rates makes disclosure of third-party payors important in the financial reporting of health care entities.
