CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - OWNERSHIP

PATTERNS AND INCOME TAXES
Chapter Outline
I.
Indirect subsidiary control

A. Control of subsidiary companies within a business combination is often
of an indirect nature; one subsidiary possesses the stock of another rather
than the parent having direct ownership.
1. These ownership patterns may be developed specifically to enhance control or for
organizational purposes.
2. Such ownership patterns may also result from the parent company's acquisition of a
company that already possesses subsidiaries.
B.
One of the most common corporate structures is the
father-son-grandson configuration where each subsidiary in turn owns one or
more subsidiaries.
C.
The consolidation process is altered somewhat when indirect control is
present.
1. The worksheet entries are effectively doubled by each corporate ownership layer
but the concepts underlying the consolidation process are not changed.
2. Calculation of the accrual-based income of a subsidiary recognizing the
consolidated relationships is an important step in an indirect ownership structure.
a. The determination of accrual-based income figures is
needed for equity income accruals as well as for the
computation of noncontrolling interest balances.
b. Any company within the business combination that is in both
a parent and a subsidiary position must recognize the equity
income accruing from its subsidiary before computing its own
income.
II. Indirect subsidiary control-connecting affiliation
A. A connecting affiliation exists whenever two or more companies within a business
combination hold an equity interest in another member of that organization.
B. Despite this variation in the standard ownership pattern, the consolidation process is
essentially the same for a connecting affiliation as for a father-son-grandson
organization.
C. Once again, any company in both a parent and a subsidiary position must recognize an
appropriate equity accrual in computing its own income.
III. Mutual ownership

A. A mutual affiliation exists whenever a subsidiary owns shares of its parent
company.
B. Parent shares being held by a subsidiary are accounted for by the treasury stock
approach.

1. The cost paid to acquire the parent's stock is reclassified within the consolidation
process to a treasury stock account and no income is accrued.
2. The treasury stock approach is popular in practice because of its simplicity and is now
required by SFAS 160.
Income tax accounting for a business combinationconsolidated tax returns
A consolidated tax return can be prepared for all companies comprising an affiliated
group. Any other companies within the business combination file separate tax returns.
A domestic corporation may be included in an affiliated group if the parent company
(either directly or indirectly) owns at least 80 percent of the voting stock of the subsidiary
as well as 80 percent of each class of its nonvoting stock.
The filing of a consolidated tax return provides several potential advantages to the
members of an affiliated group.
Intercompany profits are not taxed until realized.
Intercompany dividends are not taxed (although these distributions are nontaxable for all
members of an affiliated group whether a consolidated return or a separate return is
filed).
Losses of one affiliate can be used to reduce the taxable income earned by other
members of the group.
D. Income tax expenseeffect on noncontrolling interest valuation
1.
If a consolidated tax return is filed, an allocation of the total expense must be made to
each of the component companies to arrive at the realized income
figures that serve as a basis for noncontrolling interest computations.
2.
Income tax expense is frequently assigned to each subsidiary based on the amounts
that would have been paid on separate returns.
V. Income tax accounting for a business combinationseparate tax returns

Members of a business combination that are foreign companies or that do not meet the
80 percent ownership rule (as described above) must file separate income tax returns.
Companies in an affiliated group can elect to file separate tax returns. Deferred income
taxes are often recognized when separate returns are filed due to temporary differences
stemming from unrealized gains and losses as well as intercompany dividends.
VI. Temporary tax differences can stem from the creation of a business combination
The tax basis of a subsidiary's assets and liabilities may differ from their consolidated
values (which is based on the fair market value on the date the combination is created).
If additional taxes will result in future years (for example, it the tax basis of an asset is
lower than its consolidated value so that future depreciation expense for tax purposes will
be less), a deferred tax liability is created by a combination.
The deferred tax liability is then written off (creating a reduction in tax expense) in future
years so that the net expense recognized (a lower number) matches the combination's
book income (a lower number due to the extra depreciation of the consolidated value).
Vll. Operating loss carryforwards
Net operating losses recognized by a company can be used to reduce taxable income
from the previous two years (a carryback) or for the future 20 years (a carryforward).

B.
C.
If one company in a newly created combination has a tax carryforward, the future tax
benefits are recognized as a deferred income tax asset.
However, a valuation allowance must also be recorded to reduce the deferred tax asset
to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

Answers to Questions
1.
A father-son-grandson relationship is a specific type of ownership configuration often

encountered in business combinations. The parent possesses the stock of one or more
companies. At least one of these subsidiaries holds a majority of the voting stock of its
own subsidiary. Each subsidiary controls other subsidiaries with the chain of ownership
going on indefinitely. The parent actually holds control over all of the companies within
the business combination despite having direct ownership in only its own subsidiaries.
2.
In a business combination having an indirect ownership pattern, at least one company is

in both a parent and a subsidiary position. To calculate the accrual-based income
earned by that company, a proper recognition of the equity income accruing from its
own subsidiary must initially be made. Structuring the income calculation in this manner
is necessary to ensure that all earnings are properly included by each company.
3.
Able100% of income accrues to the consolidated entity (as parent company).
Baker70% (percentage of stock owned by Able).
Carter56% (80% of stock owned by Baker multiplied by the 70% of Baker controlled by
Able).
Dexter33.6% (60% of stock owned by Carter multiplied by the 80% of Carter controlled by
Baker multiplied by the 70% of Baker owned by Able).
4. When an indirect ownership is present, the quantity of consolidation entries will increase,
perhaps significantly. An additional set of entries is included on the worksheet
for each separate investment. Furthermore, the determination of realized
income figures for each subsidiary must be computed in a precise manner. For
any company in both a parent and a subsidiary position, equity income accruals
are recognized prior to the calculation of that company's realized income. This
realized income total is significant because it serves as the basis for
noncontrolling interest calculations as well as the equity accruals to be
recognized by that company's parent.
5. In a connecting affiliation, two (or more) companies within a business combination own
shares in a third member. A mutual ownership, in contrast, exists whenever a
subsidiary possesses an equity interest in its own parent.
6.
In accounting for a mutual ownership, SFAS 160 requires the treasury stock approach.
The treasury stock approach presumes that the cost of the parent shares
should be reclassified as treasury stock within the consolidation process. The
subsidiary is being viewed, under this method, as an agent of the parent. Thus,
the shares are accounted for as if the parent had actually made the acquisition.
7. According to present tax laws, an affiliated group can be comprised of all domestic
corporations in which a parent holds 80 percent ownership. More
specifically, the parent must own (directly or indirectly) 80 percent of the
voting stock of the corporation as well as at least 80 percent of each class
of nonvoting stock.
8. Several basic advantages are available to combinations that file a consolidated tax
return. First, intercompany profits are not taxed until realized. For
McGraw-Hill/Irwin
7- 4

Solutions Manual
companies with large amounts of intercompany transactions, the deferral

of unrealized gains causes a delay in the making of significant tax
payments. Second, losses incurred by one company can be used to
reduce or offset taxable income earned by other members of the affiliated
group. In addition, intercompany dividends are not taxable but that
exclusion applies to the members of an affiliated group regardless of
whether a consolidated or separate tax return is filed.
Members of a business combination may be forced to file separate tax returns. Foreign
corporations, for example, must always file separately. Domestic companies that do not meet
the 80 percent ownership rule are also required to file in this manner. Furthermore,
companies that are in an affiliated group may still elect to file separately. If all companies
within the combination are profitable and few intercompany transactions are carried out, little
advantage may accrue from preparing a consolidated return. With a separate filing, a
subsidiary has more flexibility as to accounting methods as well as its choice of a fiscal
year-end.
9. The allocation of income tax expense among the component companies of a business
combination has a direct bearing on realized income totals and, therefore,
noncontrolling interest calculations. Obviously, the more expense that is
assigned to a particular company the less realized income is attributed to
that concern. Income tax expense can be allocated based on the income
totals that would have been reported by various companies if separate tax
returns had been filed or on the portion of taxable income derived from
each company.
10. In filing a separate tax return (assuming that the two companies do not qualify as members
of an affiliated group), the parent must include as income the dividends
received from the subsidiary. For financial reporting purposes, however,
income is accrued based on the ownership percentage of the realized
income of the subsidiary. Because income is frequently recognized by the
parent prior to being received in the form of dividends (when it is subject
to taxation), deferred income taxes must be recognized.
Either the parent or the subsidiary might also have to record deferred income taxes in
connection with any unrealized intercompany gain. On a separate tax return, such gains are
reported at the time of transfer while for financial reporting purposes they are appropriately
deferred until realized. Once again, a temporary difference is created which necessitates the
recognition of deferred income taxes.
11.
If the consolidated value of a subsidiarys assets exceeds their tax basis, depreciation
expense in the future will be less on the tax return than is shown for external
reporting purposes. The reduced expense creates higher taxable income and,
thus, increases taxes. Therefore, the difference in values dictates an anticipated
increase in future tax payments. This deferred liability is recognized at the time the
combination is created. Subsequently, when actual tax payments do arise, the
deferred liability is written off rather than recognizing expense based solely on the
current liability. In this manner, the expense is shown at a lower figure, one that is
matched with reported income (which is also a lower balance because of the extra
depreciation).
McGraw-Hill/Irwin

7- 5
Recognition of this deferred liability at date of acquisition also reduces the net amount
attributed to the subsidiary's assets and liabilities in the initial allocation process. Therefore,
the residual asset (goodwill) is increased by the amount of any liability that must be
recognized.
12.
A net operating loss carryforward allows the company to reduce taxable income for
up to 20 years into the future. Thus, a benefit may possibly be derived from the
carryforward but that benefit is based on Wilson (the subsidiary) being able to
generate taxable income to be decreased by the carryforward. To reflect the
potential tax reduction, a deferred income tax asset is recorded for the total
amount of anticipated benefit. However, because of the uncertainty, unless the
receipt of this benefit is more likely than not to be received, a valuation allowance
must also be recorded as a contra account to the asset. The valuation allowance
may be for the entire amount or just for a portion of the asset.
13. At the date of acquisition, the valuation allowance was $150,000. As a contra asset
account, recognition of this amount reduced the net assets attributed to the
subsidiary and, hence, increased the recording of goodwill (assuming that the
price did not indicate a bargain purchase). If the valuation allowance is
subsequently reduced to $110,000, the net assets have increased by $40,000.
This change is reflected by a decrease in income tax expense.

b. On separate returns, the unrealized gains are reported as taxable income.

Because Up owns 80 percent of Down's stock, the dividends are tax- free and
no deferred tax liability is necessary on the undistributed income.

The $3,000 difference between the liability and the expense is an increase in the
Deferred Income Tax Asset account. It is created by the tax effect (30%) on the
net unrealized gain for the period ($10,000 or $40,000 $30,000).
20. (45 Minutes) (Series of questions requires computation of income tax expense
and the related payable balance)
a. $260,000 ($650,000 40%)
The affiliated group would be taxed on its operating income of $650,000 (the
net unrealized gain is deferred on a consolidated return). The intercompany
income and dividends are not relevant since a consolidated return is filed.
b. $260,000 ($650,000 40%)

c. $296,000 ($96,000 + $200,000)
Rogers would pay $96,000 or 40% of its $240,000 operating income. Clarke
would pay $200,000 or 40% of its $500,000 operating income. The unrealized
gain is not deferred when separate returns are filed. Intercompany dividends
are not taxable because the parties qualify as an affiliated group even though
separate returns are being filed. Answer (c.) differs from (a.) and (b.) because
tax on the $90,000 unrealized gain (40% or $36,000) is paid immediately.
d. $268,064
Rogers would record income tax expense of $96,000 or 40% of its $240,000
operating income.
Clarke must record its expense based on the revenue recognized during the
period. Thus, the tax expense is based on operating income of $410,000 (the
net unrealized gain is not being recognized in this period) plus equity income
accruing from Rogers of $100,800 (70% of that company's after-tax income).
Clarke will record an income tax expense of $164,000 in connection with the
operating income ($410,000 40%). The expense recognized in connection with
the equity accrual is affected by the dividends-received deduction:

Clarke will pay $200,000 in connection with its operating income ($500,000

$56,000 in dividends from Rogers ($80,000 70%). Tax payment on these
dividends is $4,480 ($56,000 20% 40%). The difference between the payment
by Clarke ($204,480) and the company's expense in (d.) ($172,064) is created by
the premature payment of the tax (a deferred tax asset) on the unrealized gain
($90,000) less the deferred tax liability on the parent's equity accrual ($100,800)
in excess of dividends received ($56,000).

Because no temporary differences exist in this problem, the income tax

expense would also be $148,000. The unrealized gain is not taxed until realized.
Dividend income is not important because a consolidated return is being filed.
b. Separate Returns2010
On its separate tax return, Piranto will report taxable income of $300,000the
unrealized gains cannot be deferred. The dividends would not be taxable
because Slinton still meets the criteria to be a member of an affiliated group. A
consolidated return is not a requirement for these dividends to be excluded.
Thus, income taxes payable by Piranto would be $120,000 ($300,000 40%).
To determine the income tax expense for Piranto, the two temporary
differences must be taken into account:
Taxable income ................................................................
Gain taxed in 2009 although realized
in 2010 .........................................................................

22. (45 Minutes) (Comparison of income tax expense and payable on separate and
consolidated tax returns. Includes question on mutual ownership and the
conventional approach.)
a. Total income tax expense is $156,877. Because of the level of ownership,
separate returns must be filed. Unrealized gains are taxed immediately as are
intercompany dividends.
Because the unrealized gains are deferred on the consolidated financial
statements, Boxwood's expense would be $34,400 or 40% of $86,000 in realized
income ($100,000 + $18,000 $32,000).
Lake's income subject to taxation includes its $300,000 in operating income
plus $30,960 in income accruing from its investment in Boxwood (60% of the
after-tax Income of $51,600 [$86,000 $34,400]). Income tax expense for Lake is
computed as follows:
Operating income ............................................................

b. Boxwood will pay $40,000 ($100,000 40%) because separate returns are filed.
Lake, however, will pay its taxes based on dividends received rather than on
the equity accrual. A deferred income tax liability would be established for the
difference. Lake's payment for the current year is computed as follows:

40% of its $200,000 operating income. Garrison would pay $120,000 or 40% of
its $300,000 operating income. The unrealized gain is not deferred because
separate returns are being filed. Intercompany dividends are not taxable
because the parties still qualify as an affiliated group even though separate

operating income.
McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Solutions Manual
23. (continued)
Garrison records its expense based on the revenue recognized during the
period. Thus, the expense is computed on an operating income of $250,000 (the
net unrealized gain is not recognized in this period) along with equity income
from Robertson of $84,000 (70% of that company's $120,000 after-tax income).
Garrison will record an income tax expense of $100,000 in connection with the
operating income ($250,000 40%) and $6,720 resulting from its equity income
($84,000 20% 40%). Total expense to be reported amounts to $186,720 for
Garrison and Robertson ($80,000 + $100,000 + $6,720).
d. Garrison will pay $120,000 in connection with its operating income ($300,000
40%) and $2,400 because of the dividends received from Robertson. Garrison
will receive $30,000 in dividends based on its 60% ownership. Of this total, only
$6,000 (20%) is taxable. Thus, at a 40% rate, the tax on the dividends would
amount to $2,400 ($6,000 40%). The total income taxes payable by Garrison is
$122,400 ($120,000 + $2,400).
24. (10 Minutes) (Impact on goodwill of assets with a different tax vs. book value.)
The assets and liabilities of Kew (the subsidiary) will be consolidated at their
individual fair values (netting to $500,000). However, both the buildings and
equipment have a tax basis that is lower than fair value. Thus, for tax purposes,
future depreciation expense will be lower on the tax return so that taxable
income will exceed book income. The higher taxable income (anticipated in the
future) creates a deferred tax liability at the time the combination is created.

d. (1) Because 80% of Stookey's stock is owned by Yarrow, intercompany

dividends would be nontaxable. Consequently, no temporary difference is
created by Stookey's failure to pay a dividend.
(2) Stookey's unrealized gains are recognized in one time period for financial
reporting purposes and in a different time period for tax purposes. A
temporary difference is created. The net effect is an increase in taxable
income by $1,920 over reported income:

28. (40 Minutes) (Series of questions about a business combination and its income
tax reporting)
a. Partial equity method. "Income of Soludan" is 80% of Soludan's reported total.
b. $12,000. Reduction is evidenced by a $338,000 figure reported for consolidated
inventory rather than the $350,000 total for the two companies.
c. $37,500. Consolidated operating expenses have increased by $2,500, evidently
the annual amortization. Because a 15-year life is assumed by the combination,
the amount originally allocated to trademarks must have been $37,500.
d. $120,000. Decrease shown in consolidated sales account.
e. Upstream. "Noncontrolling interest in Soludan Company's income" is $18,700.
Because this amount is not equal to 20% of Soludan's reported income less
excess amortization ($100,000 $2,500), realized income must have been
adjusted for unrealized gains. Subsidiary income is only adjusted to show the
effects of upstream transfers.
f. $20,000. For both receivables and liabilities, the consolidated total is $20,000
less than the sum of the two companies.
g. $8,000. Consolidated cost of goods sold is decreased by $120,000 (to $780,000)
in eliminating intercompany sales. The increase of $12,000 created by the
ending unrealized gain (see part b.) would then leave a $792,000 balance.
Because $784,000 is the ending balance reported for consolidated cost of
goods sold, an $8,000 unrealized gain must have been deferred from the
previous year.
28.(continued)
h. Because the trademarks balance now stands at $32,500, amortization expense
of $2,500 has been recognized, $2,500 in the previous year. In addition, an
$8,000 unrealized gain from the prior year (see part g.) is recognized.

k. On a separate return, Politan would report its operating income of $200,000

ownership, intercompany dividend (or investment) income is omitted.

80,000
28. k. (continued)
On a separate return, Soludan would report $100,000 operating income for a
payable of $40,000. The unrealized gains are accounted for in different time
periods in the financial statements, thus, a temporary difference is created. The
beginning gain of $8,000 was taxed in the previous year rather than currently.
The current gain of $12,000 is taxed now rather than next year; the tax paid this
year on the net $4,000 ($1,600) is a prepayment.
