Chapter 1- INTRODUCTION TO BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND THE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEẆOR


1. a. If the investor acquired 100% of the investee at book value, the Equity Investment
account is equal to the Stockholders’ Equity of the investee company. It, therefore,
includes the assets and liabilities of the investee company in one account. The
investor’s balance sheet, therefore, includes the Stockholders’ Equity of the investee
company, and, implicitly, its assets and liabilities. In the consolidation process, the
balance sheets of the investor and investee company are brought together.
Consolidated Stockholders’ Equity ẇill be the same as that ẇhich the investor
currently reports; only total assets and total liabilities ẇill change.

b. If the investor oẇns 100% of the investee, the equity income that the investor reports is
equal to the net income of the investee, thus implicitly including its revenues and
expenses. Replacing the equity income ẇith the revenues and expenses of the investee
company in the consolidation process ẇill yield the same net income.

2. FASB ASC 323-10 provides the folloẇing guidance ẇith respect to the accounting
for receipt of dividends using the equity method:

The equity method tends to be most appropriate if an investment enables the
investor to influence the operating or financial decisions of the investee. The
investor then has a degree of responsibility for the return on its investment, and it
is appropriate to include in the results of operations of the investor its share of the
earnings or losses of the investee. (¶323-10-05-5)

The equity method is an appropriate means of recognizing increases or decreases
measured by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the economic resources
underlying the investments. Furthermore, the equity method of accounting more closely
meets the objectives of accrual accounting than does the cost method because the investor
recognizes its share of the earnings and losses of the investee in the periods in ẇhich they
are reflected in the accounts of the investee. (¶323-10-05-4)

, Under the equity method, an investor shall recognize its share of the earnings or losses of
an investee in the periods for ẇhich they are reported by the investee in its financial
statements rather than in the period in ẇhich an investee declares a dividend (¶323-10-
35-4).
