The Consolidation Process

Why Consolidated Statements? They are presumed to be more meaningful

that separate statements. They are considered necessary for a fair

presentation.

The consolidation of financial information into a single set of statements becomes necessary

whenever a single economic entity is created by the business combination of two or more

companies. - - ARB No. 51

GAAP Accounting Methods


Slide 2-9

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

If the acquisition is made by issuing stock, the cost of the acquisition is

equal to the MARKET VALUE

of the stock issued.

If the acquisition is made by issuing stock, the cost of the acquisition is

equal to the MARKET VALUE

of the stock issued.

Purchase Method – SFAS 141

Used when when there is a change in ownership that results in control of one enterprise by another enterprise.

The appropriate valuation basis for any purchase transaction is “cost”.


Slide 2-10

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Let’s look at some different

situations where the Purchase

Method would be used.


Slide 2-11

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Purchase Method Situations

Dissolution of the acquired company:Cost = FMVCost > FMVCost < FMV

Separate incorporation is maintained.

Dissolution of the acquired company:Cost = FMVCost > FMVCost < FMV

Separate incorporation is maintained.


Slide 2-12

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Purchase Method - DissolutionCost = FMV

Ignore the Equity and Nominal accounts of the acquired company.

Determine FMV of the acquired company’s assets and liabilities.

Prepare a journal entry to recognize cost of the acquisition incorporate the FMV of acquired

company’s assets and liabilities into acquiring company’s books.


Slide 2-13

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Prepare the entry to record Large’s purchase.


On 1/1/04, Large acquired 100% of Tiny for $300,000 cash.


Slide 2-14

McGraw-Hill/Irwin


Tiny’s fair market value was $300,000 which is equal to the price paid by Large. Record the

purchased assets at their market value.


Slide 2-15

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Purchase Method - DissolutionCost > FMV

At date of acquisition: Acquired company should

prepare a Balance Sheet as of the date of acquisition.

Acquired company’s income prior to acquisition is irrelevant to the acquiring company.

FMV of acquired company’s assets and liabilities is added to acquiring company’s books.

Difference between Cost and FMV is allocated to identifiable intangible assets and to goodwill.

Note: Goodwill should be viewed

as a residual amount

remaining after all other

identifiable and separable

intangible assets have been identified.

Note: Goodwill should be viewed

remaining after all other

Slide 2-16

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Small has no identifiable, separable intangible assets.


On 1/1/04, Huge acquires 100% of Small for $250,000 cash.


Slide 2-17

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Goodwill will be recorded as an intangible asset on Huge’s books, but will not be amortized.



Slide 2-18

McGraw-Hill/Irwin


Prepare Large’s journal entry for this acquisition. Remember to record the

$33,000 of Goodwill.


Slide 2-19

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Purchase Method - DissolutionCost < FMV

When FMV exceeds cost, we have a Bargain Purchase.

Current assets and liabilities should be consolidated at their FMV.

Long-term assets should be recorded at a value between FMV and BV. each L-T asset’s FMV should

be reduced by a proportionate share of the excess of FMV over cost.


Slide 2-20

McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Purchase Method - DissolutionCost < FMV

In the event that the difference is substantial enough to eliminate all the non-current asset balances of

the acquired company . . .

. . . The remainder is to be reported as an extraordinary gain

(SFAS 141)

Pooling of Interests

According to SFAS No. 141, the purchase method is not to be applied prospectively to past

Poolings of Interest.

Past poolings of interests are left intact by SFAS No. 141.

Therefore, it is important to understand how to account

for PAST poolings.

Continued Accounting for Pooling of Interests

The Investment in Sub account must be eliminated. Also eliminate the Sub’s

Equity accounts to prevent double-counting.

They have already been included in the original Investment in Sub entry.
