  2. Accounting for the Investment in a Subsidiary Simple Equity Method Every change in sub’s Retained Earnings in recorded on a pro-rata basis in the Investment account Cost Method Investment account remains at its original cost-of-acquisition balance

  3. Accounting for the Investment in the Subsidiary Sophisticated Equity Method Parent records controlling interest in the subsidiary’s income Parent also records the amortization adjustment for the excess

  4. Elimination Procedures Consolidation process is performed independently each year All elimination entries are Workpaper Only --- not posted to the general ledger of parent or subsidiary Steps for dates subsequent to acquisition: Date Alignment (varies by method) Eliminate parent’s share of sub equity Distribute excess purchase price Amortize/Depreciate the excess

  5. Date Alignment for Simple Equity Method Investment in Sub carries information through the end of the fiscal year Subsidiary’s Retained Earnings is at its beginning-of-year balance Must align the content of the two accounts before eliminating sub equity against the investment account • Eliminate the effects of the current year’s recognition of income and dividends

  6. Eliminate Parent’s recognition of Sub income: Investment Revenue XX Investment in Sub XX Date Alignment: Simple Equity Eliminate Parent’s share of Sub’s dividends: Investment in Sub XX Dividends Declared-Sub XX Investment in Sub account has been returned to its beginning-of-year balance; it has been aligned with the Sub’s Retained Earnings account

  16. Effect of the Sophisticated Equity Method • Ramifications: • Current year’s equity adjustment is net of excess amortizations • The investment account contains only the remaining unamortized excess applicable to the investment • Distribution and amortization of excess procedures are altered: • Distribute the remaining unamortized excess applicable to the controlling interest to the balance sheet account; adjust the NCI for the remaining excess attributable to its share • Amortize the excess for the current year only
