SOLUTIONS TO MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS, EXERCISES AND PROBLEMS

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS
1.
c
Only the expenses related to provision of services are transactions with outside parties.
The $3,000,000 revenue reported by Suzlon and the $3,000,000 expense reported by
Patni are eliminated.
2.
d
Eliminating entries remove the intercompany asset (loan receivable) and liability (loan
payable) and the interest revenue and interest expense. There is no effect on timing of
income recognition, and therefore no adjustment is made to the investment account or
beginning retained earnings.
3.
a
Downstream sales only affect equity in net income. The effect is [($540,000 - $480,000)
- ($540,000 - $480,000)/1.2] = increase of $10,000.
4.
d
Only the adjustment to 2013 depreciation affects equity in net income and noncontrolling
interest in net income. It is an upstream sale, so the increase of $2,000,000/10 =
$200,000 is shared 80% - 20%.
5.
b
From the consolidated companys perspective, it paid $35,000 for the land and sold it for
$85,000. Therefore the consolidated gain is $50,000.
6.
a
The intercompany gain, recognized by the subsidiary in 2010, is $400,000. In 2013, the
parent sells the land to an outside party for $550,000, reporting a loss of $850,000 (=
$1,400,000 - $550,000). The consolidated loss is $450,000 (= $1,000,000 - $550,000).
The 2013 eliminating entry adjusts the reported $850,000 loss to $450,000, and
reclassifies it from the subsidiarys beginning retained earnings.

Cost of goods sold
42,000
To eliminate the intercompany profit on upstream intercompany sales, assumed confirmed during
2013, from the beginning inventory. Prior year profits on upstream sales are removed from
Converses beginning retained earnings; $15,000 = $75,000 x 20%. Prior year profits on
downstream sales are added to Nikes Investment in Converse as they had been removed from
the Investment account via the 2013 equity accrual; $27,000 = $117,000 - 117,000/1.3.

20% = $16,000) + [110,500 - (110,500/1.3) = $25,500].
E6.4
Analysis of Land Sale Alternatives
Under a direct sale of the land by Sawyer to the developer, Sawyer reports a gain of $3,900,000.
The noncontrolling interest in net income is $780,000 (= .2 x $3,900,000) and the distribution to
the noncontrolling shareholder is $390,000 (= .5 x $780,000).
Under the intercompany sale, even though the gain is larger, it is eliminated in consolidation, and
does not enter into the noncontrolling interest in net income. As long as the parent holds the land
(which it plans to do under a long-term lease), the gain is not reflected in noncontrolling interest
in net income. Moreover, the income from the lease is the parents income, so the noncontrolling
interest is unaffected. Under this approach, the noncontrolling stockholder receives nothing.
Hence, the direct sale of the land by Sawyer to the developer generates the most dividends for
the noncontrolling stockholder.

E6.11 Ratio Analysis of Enron-Type Intercompany Transactions

(all dollar amounts in millions)
a.
1.
ROA = ($9,000 - $8,000 + $500)/($10,000 + $500) = $1,500/$10,500 = .143

ROS = $1,500/($9,000 + $3,000) = $1,500/$12,000 = .125
2.
ROA = ($9,000+$2,000-$8,000-$1,900)/($10,000+$4,000)
= $1,100/$14,000 = .079
ROS = $1,100/($9,000 +$2,000) = .10
Consolidation (2) eliminates the intercompany revenue and the unconfirmed

intercompany gain, voiding the internal transaction for financial reporting purposes.
Ratios look better when the transaction with the SPE is considered to be arms length and
consolidation is avoided (1).

9
b.
1.
TL/TA = $6,000/($10,000 + $3,500) = $6,000/$13,500 = .444
2.
TL/TA = ($6,000 + $3,600 + $3,500)/($10,000 + $4,000 + $3,500)

= $13,100/$17,500 = .749
Without consolidation (1) Sponsor recognizes the $3,500 cash but not the liability, but in
consolidation (2) the liability is also counted along with Sponsorees assets and liabilities.
Sponsoree is more leveraged than Sponsor; Sponsorees separate TL/TA = $3,600/$4.000
= .9, while Sponsors separate TL/TA = $6,000/$10,000 = .6. Therefore consolidating
Sponsoree causes consolidated TL/TA to be higher than Sponsors separate TL/TA.
c.
1.
ROA = [$9,000 - $8,000 + .25 ($4,300 - $3,500)]/($10,000 + $3,500)

= $1,200/$13,500 = .089
2.
ROA = ($9,000 + $2,000 $8,000 $1,900)/($10,000 + $4,000 + $3,500)

= $1,100/$17,500 = .063
Enron apparently used this technique to recognize gains on its own stock as income,
something not permitted by GAAP. Without consolidation (1), Sponsors income
includes 25% of the gain on its stock recognized in Sponsorees income and booked by
Sponsor via the equity method. With consolidation (2) the stock issuance is voided and
neither entity recognizes income on the appreciation of Sponsors stock.

Check: Consolidated net income to the controlling interest must equal Portlands
reported net income, including the equity income accrual. $15,478,000 = $10,000,000 +
$5,478,000.
NOTE ON THE PATENT: The patent acquired internally from Salem had a net book
value of $200,000 [= $500,000 - (3/5) X 500,000] when sold by Portland for $420,000.
The $220,000 (= $420,000 - 200,000) external gain reported in other income is fully
confirmed and does not affect the consolidation. This years $50,000 (= $250,000/5)
excess amortization is eliminatedincreasing incomebecause the patent was held
internally for the entire year. Moreover, the remaining $100,000 upstream intercompany
gain is now fully confirmed by the external sale and is added to this years income. The
$100,000 is the original $250,000 intercompany gain reduced by three years of excess
amortization at $50,000 a year.

P6.12 Evaluation of Eliminations Disclosures
a.
Machinery & Engines is the parent company. Its records show an Investment in
Financial Products account. We also observe that the income and stockholders equity
of Machinery & Engines equal the consolidated amounts, a characteristic that is true of
parent companies of wholly-owned subsidiaries that use the complete equity method on
their own books.
b.
The fact that no goodwill arises in the consolidation of Machinery & Engines with
Financial Products suggests that Financial Products was formed as a subsidiary company
by Machinery & Engines, rather than acquired in a business combination. Goodwill arises
when the acquisition cost exceeds the fair value of the subsidiarys identifiable net assets.
When a parent company forms a subsidiary, there is no goodwill.
Another possible explanation is that the excess of acquisition cost over the acquisitiondate fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is fully explained by revaluations of
identifiable net assets.
A third explanation is that the acquired goodwill has been completely written off as
impairment loss (or amortization prior to 2002) in previous years.
c.
The goodwill on the books of Machinery & Engines suggests that Machinery & Engines
acquired other companies in the past, and merged them into the parent. Because the other
companies are no longer separate legal entities, Machinery & Engines reports their assets
and liabilities directly on its own books, as discussed in Chapter 2 of this text.
d.
Financial Products earned $400 million in revenue from Machinery & Engines; there was
no intercompany revenue in the other direction.

The main intercompany activity involves financing of customer receivables. Over $3

billion was added to current trade receivables and subtracted from current finance
receivables, and over $550 million is added to long-term trade receivables and subtracted
from long-term finance receivables, suggesting that Financial Products finances a
significant amount of the sales made to Machinery & Engines customers.
