[QUESTION]

  1. 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.

[QUESTION]

  1. 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.

[QUESTION]

  1. 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.

[QUESTION]

  1. 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.

  1. Dithers Inc. acquired all of the common stock of Bumstead Corp. on January 1, 2018. During 2018, Bumstead sold land to Dithers at a gain. 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. Also, the correction for gain may be allocated to the noncontrolling interest share of subsidiary earnings and the noncontrolling interest balance on the consolidated balance sheet.

[QUESTION]

  1. 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.

[QUESTION]

  1. 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.

[QUESTION]

  1. 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.

[QUESTION]

  1. 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.
