Several years ago Polar Inc. acquired an 80% interest in Icecap Co. The book values of Icecap's asset and liability accounts at that time were considered to be equal to their fair values. Polar's acquisition value corresponded to the underlying book value of Icecap so that no allocations or goodwill resulted from the transaction. The following selected account balances were from the individual financial records of these two companies as of December 31, 2011:

122. Assume that Polar sold inventory to Icecap at a markup equal to 25% of cost. Intra-entity transfers were $130,000 in 2010 and $165,000 in 2011. Of this inventory, $39,000 of the 2010 transfers were retained and then sold by Icecap in 2011 while $55,000 of the 2011 transfers were held until 2012. Required: For the consolidated financial statements for 2011, determine the balances that would appear for the following accounts: (1) Cost of Goods Sold, (2) Inventory, and (3) Noncontrolling Interest in Subsidiary's Net Income.

100. Varton Corp. acquired all of the voting common stock of Caleb Co. on January 1, 2011. 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 transaction be accounted for by the consolidated entity?

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 a transfer of assets within the entity. No gain on the transfer should be recognized in the consolidated financial statements since the earnings process is not complete. 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.

101. During 2011, Edwards Co. sold inventory to its parent company, Forsyth Corp. Forsyth still owned all of the inventory at the end of 2011. Why must the gross profit on the sale be deferred when consolidated financial statements are prepared at the end of 2011?

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 earnings process was not yet complete. 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.

102. How does a gain on an intra-entity sale of equipment affect the calculation of a noncontrolling interest?

If the equipment is sold by the parent to the subsidiary, the sale 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.

103. How do upstream and downstream inventory transfers differ in their effect in a year-end consolidation?

If the sale of inventory is downstream (from parent to subsidiary), any unrealized gain on the sale does not affect the calculation of noncontrolling interest. When the sale is upstream (from the subsidiary to the parent), the gain on the sale is associated with the subsidiary. The gain on goods that the parent still owns should be deducted from the subsidiary's income and this elimination may be allocated between the controlling interest and the noncontrolling interest's share of the subsidiary's earnings.

106. Why do intra-entity transfers between the component companies of a business combination occur so frequently?

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 because of the economies provided by vertical integration. In effect, more profit can often be generated by the combination if one member is able to buy from another rather than from an outside party.

107. Fraker, Inc. owns 90 percent of Richards, Inc. and bought $200,000 of Richards' inventory in 2011. The transfer price was equal to 30 percent of the sales price. When preparing consolidated financial statements, what amount of these sales is eliminated?

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.

108. What is meant by unrealized inventory gains, and how are they treated on a consolidation worksheet?

In intra-entity transactions, a transfer price is often established that exceeds the cost of the inventory. Hence, the seller is recording a gain on its books that, from the perspective of the business combination as a whole, remains unrealized until the asset is consumed or sold to an outside party. Any unrealized gain on merchandise still being held by the buyer must be eliminated whenever consolidated financial statements are produced. For the year of transfer, this consolidation procedure is carried out by removing the unrealized gain 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 unrealized gain must again be eliminated within the consolidation process. This second reduction is made on the worksheet to the beginning inventory component of cost of goods sold as well as to the beginning retained earnings balance of the original seller. The gain is being moved into the year of realization. If the transfer was downstream in direction and the parent company has applied the equity method, the adjustment in the subsequent year must be made to the equity in subsidiary earnings account rather than to retained earnings.

110. When is the gain on an intra-entity transfer of land realized?

The gain on an intra-entity transfer of land is realized when the asset is sold to an independent third party. The gain on the intra-entity transfer is deferred until the time of that third-party sale.

111. 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?

Depreciable assets are often transferred between the members of a business combination at amounts in excess of book value. The buyer will then compute depreciation expense based on this inflated transfer price rather than on an historical cost basis. From the perspective of the business combination, depreciation should be calculated solely on historical cost figures. Thus, within the consolidation process for each period, adjustment of the depreciation (recorded by the buyer) is necessary to reduce the expense to a cost based figure.
