Disclosure Concerns • Consolidated net income– The net income of the consolidated entity • NCI share of income– This is the NCI share of consolidated net income; it has often (incorrectly) been treated as an expense. • Controlling share of net income– This is the controlling share of consolidated net income; it has often (incorrectly) been treated as consolidated net income (the NCI share having been deducted) • Total NCI– Best theory is to show as aggregated part of total equity • Some have shown it as liability or put it between liabilities and equity Copyright 2008 by Thomson South-Western, a part of The Thomson Corporation.

Tax Issues: Tax-Free Exchange • Occurs when seller is not taxed; buyer gets book value for future depreciation • Adjustment from market to book accompanied by DTL = tax % market adjustment • DTL has same priority as the related asset. • DTL is amortized over same period as asset adjustment; increases tax liability in future years • Tax loss carryover is asset recorded in purchase; there are limits on its use in yearof purchase and later years Copyright 2008 by Thomson South-Western, a part of The Thomson Corporation.
