Chapter 01 – Intercorporate Acquisitions and Investments in Other Entities
CHAPTER 1
INTERCORPORATE ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS IN OTHER ENTITIES
ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
Q1-1 Complex organizational structures often result when companies do business in a complex
business environment. New subsidiaries or other entities may be formed for purposes such as
extending operations into foreign countries, seeking to protect existing assets from risks
associated with entry into new product lines, separating activities that fall under regulatory
controls, and reducing taxes by separating certain types of operations.
Q1-2 The split-off and spin-off result in the same reduction of reported assets and liabilities. Only
the stockholders’ equity accounts of the company are different. The number of shares outstanding
remains unchanged in the case of a spin-off and retained earnings or paid-in capital is reduced.
Shares of the parent are exchanged for shares of the subsidiary in a split-off, thereby reducing
the outstanding shares of the parent company.
Q1-3 Enron’s management used special-purpose entities to avoid reporting debt on its balance
sheet and to create fictional transactions that resulted in reported income. It also transferred bad
loans and investments to special-purpose entities to avoid recognizing losses in its income
statement.
Q1-4 (a) A statutory merger occurs when one company acquires another company and the
assets and liabilities of the acquired company are transferred to the acquiring company; the
acquired company is liquidated, and only the acquiring company remains. The acquiring company
can give cash or other assets in addition to stock.
(b) A statutory consolidation occurs when a new company is formed to acquire the assets and
liabilities of two combining companies. The combining companies dissolve, and the new company
is the only surviving entity.
(c) A stock acquisition occurs when one company acquires a majority of the common stock of
another company and the acquired company is not liquidated; both companies remain as
separate but related corporations.
Q1-5 A noncontrolling interest exists when the acquiring company gains control but does not
own all the shares of the acquired company. The non-controlling interest is made up of the shares
not owned by the acquiring company.
Q1-6 Goodwill is the excess of the sum of (1) the fair value given by the acquiring company, (2)
the fair value of any shares already owned by the parent and (3) the acquisition-date fair value of
any noncontrolling interest over the acquisition-date fair value of the net identifiable assets
acquired in the business combination.
Q1-7 A differential is the total difference at the acquisition date between the sum of (1) the fair
value given by the acquiring company, (2) the fair value of any shares already owned by the
parent and (3) the acquisition-date fair value of any noncontrolling interest and the book value of
the net identifiable assets acquired is referred to as the differential.

Q1-8 The purchase of a company is viewed in the same way as any other purchase of assets.
The acquired company is owned by the acquiring company only for the portion of the year
subsequent to the combination. Therefore, earnings are accrued only from the date of purchase
forward.
Q1-9 None of the retained earnings of the subsidiary should be carried forward under the
acquisition method. Thus, consolidated retained earnings immediately following an acquisition is
limited to the balance reported by the acquiring company.
Q1-10 Additional paid-in capital reported following a business combination is the amount
previously reported on the acquiring company’s books plus the excess of the fair value over the
par or stated value of any shares issued by the acquiring company in completing the acquisition
less any sock issue costs.
Q1-11 When the acquisition method is used, all costs incurred in bringing about the combination
are expensed as incurred. None are capitalized. However, costs associated with the issuance of
stock are recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.
Q1-12 When the acquiring company issues shares of stock to complete a business combination,
the excess of the fair value of the stock issued over its par value is recorded as additional paid-in
capital. All costs incurred by the acquiring company in issuing the securities should be treated as
a reduction in the additional paid-in capital. Items such as audit fees associated with the
registration of the new securities, listing fees, and brokers’ commissions should be treated as
reductions of additional paid-in capital when stock is issued.
Q1-13 If the fair value of a reporting unit acquired in a business combination exceeds its carrying
amount, the goodwill of that reporting unit is considered unimpaired. On the other hand, if the
carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, impairment of goodwill is implied. An
impairment must be recognized if the carrying amount of the goodwill assigned to the reporting
unit is greater than the implied value of the carrying unit’s goodwill. The implied value of the
reporting unit’s goodwill is determined as the excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the
fair value of its net identifiable assets.
Q1-14 A bargain purchase occurs when the fair value of the consideration given in a business
combination, along with the fair value of any equity interest in the acquiree already held and the
fair value of any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, is less than the fair value of the acquiree’s
net identifiable assets.
Q1-15 The acquirer should record the clarification of the acquisition-date fair value of buildings
as a reduction to buildings and addition to goodwill.
.
Q1-16 The acquirer must revalue the equity position to its fair value at the acquisition date and
recognize a gain. A total of $250,000 ($25 x 10,000 shares) would be recognized in this case
assuming that the $65 per share price is the appropriate fair value for all shares (i.e. there is no
control premium for the new shares purchased).

SOLUTIONS TO CASES
C1-1 Assignment of Acquisition Costs
MEMO
To: Vice-President of Finance
Troy Company
From: , CPA
Re: Recording Acquisition Costs of Business Combination
Troy Company incurred a variety of costs in acquiring the ownership of Kline Company and
transferring the assets and liabilities of Kline to Troy Company. I was asked to review the relevant
accounting literature and provide my recommendations as to what was the appropriate treatment
of the costs incurred in the Kline Company acquisition.
Current accounting standards require that acquired companies be valued under ASC 805 at the
fair value of the consideration given in the exchange, plus the fair value of any shares of the
acquiree already held by the acquirer, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interest in the
acquiree at the combination date [ASC 805]. All other acquisition-related costs directly traceable
to an acquisition should be accounted for as expenses in the period incurred [ASC 805]. The
costs incurred in issuing common or preferred stock in a business combination are required to be
treated as a reduction of the recorded amount of the securities (which would be a reduction to
additonal paid-in capital if the stock has a par value or a reduction to common stock for no par
stock).
A total of $720,000 was paid in completing the Kline acquisition. Kline should record the $200,000
finders’ fee and $90,000 legal fees for transferring Kline’s assets and liabilities to Troy as
acquisition expense in 20X7. The $60,000 payment for stock registration and audit fees should
be recorded as a reduction of paid-in capital recorded when the Troy Company shares are issued
to acquire the shares of Kline. The only cost potentially at issue is the $370,000 legal fees resulting
from the litigation by the shareholders of Kline. If this cost is considered to be a direct acquisition
cost, it should be included in acquisition expense. If, on the other hand, it is considered to be
related to the issuance of the shares, it should be debited to paid-in capital.

C1-2 Evaluation of Merger
a. AT&T had a vast cable customer base, but felt that TimeWarner’s content would greatly
enhance the demand for its cable services.
b. AT&T provided TimeWarner shareholders with AT&T stock and an equal value of cash.
c. The cash portion of the merger was funded primarily with debt.
d. This would be a statutory merger since (1) the AT&T name survived through the merger and
(2) the acquisition was formalized when AT&T gave both stock and cash.

C1-3 Business Combinations
It is very difficult to develop a single explanation for any series of events. Merger activity in the
United States is impacted by events both within the U.S. economy and those around the world.
As a result, there are many potential answers to the questions posed in this case.
a. One factor that may have prompted the greater use of stock in business combinations in the
middle and late 1990s is that many of the earlier combinations that had been effected through the
use of debt had unraveled. In many cases, the debt burden was so heavy that the combined
companies could not meet debt payments. Thus, this approach to financing mergers had
somewhat fallen from favor by the mid-nineties. Further, with the spectacular rise in the stock
market after 1994, many companies found that their stock was worth much more than previously.
Accordingly, fewer shares were needed to acquire other companies.
b. Two of major factors appear to have had a significant influence on the merger movement in the
mid-2000s. First, interest rates were very low during that time, and a great amount of unemployed
cash was available worldwide. Many business combinations were effected through significant
borrowing. Second, private equity funds pooled money from various institutional investors and
wealthy individuals and used much of it to acquire companies.
Many of the acquisitions of this time period involved private equity funds or companies that
acquired other companies with the goal of making quick changes and selling the companies for a
profit. This differed from prior merger periods where acquiring companies were often looking for
long-term acquisitions that would result in synergies.
In late 2008, a mortgage crisis spilled over into the credit markets in general, and money for
acquisitions became hard to get. This in turn caused many planned or possible mergers to be
canceled. In addition, the economy in general faltered toward the end of 2008 and into 2009.
Since that time, companies have turned their attention to global expansion.
c. Establishing incentives for corporate mergers is a controversial issue. Many people in our
society view mergers as not being in the best interests of society because they are seen as
lessening competition and often result in many people losing their jobs. On the other hand, many
mergers result in companies that are more efficient and can compete better in a global economy;
this in turn may result in more jobs and lower prices. Even if corporate mergers are viewed
favorably, however, the question arises as to whether the government, and ultimately the
taxpayers, should be subsidizing those mergers through tax incentives. Many would argue that
the desirability of individual corporate mergers, along with other types of investment opportunities,
should be determined on the basis of the merits of the individual situations rather than through
tax incentives.
Perhaps the most obvious incentive is to lower capital gains tax rates. Businesses may be more
likely to invest in other companies if they can sell their ownership interests when it is convenient
and pay lesser tax rates. Another alternative would include exempting certain types of
intercorporate income. Favorable tax status might be given to investment in foreign companies
through changes in tax treaties. As an alternative, barriers might be raised to discourage foreign
investment in United States, thereby increasing the opportunities for domestic firms to acquire
ownership of other companies.

d. In an ideal environment, the accounting and reporting for economic events would be accurate
and timely and would not influence the economic decisions being reported. Any change in
reporting requirements that would increase or decrease management’s ability to “manage”
earnings could impact management’s willingness to enter new or risky business fields and affect
the level of business combinations. Greater flexibility in determining which subsidiaries are to be
consolidated, the way in which intercorporate income is calculated, the elimination of profits on
intercompany transfers, or the process used in calculating earnings per share could impact such
decisions. The processes used in translating foreign investment into United States dollars also
may impact management’s willingness to invest in domestic versus international alternatives.
C1-4 Determination of Goodwill Impairment
MEMO
TO: Chief Accountant
Plush Corporation
From: , CPA
Re: Determining Impairment of Goodwill
Once goodwill is recorded in a business combination, it must be accounted for in accordance with
current accounting literature. Goodwill is carried forward at the original amount without
amortization, unless it becomes impaired. The amount determined to be goodwill in a business
combination must be assigned to the reporting units of the acquiring entity that are expected to
benefit from the synergies of the combination. [ASC 350-20-35-41]
This means the total amount assigned to goodwill may be divided among a number of reporting
units. Goodwill assigned to each reporting unit must be tested for impairment annually and
between the annual tests in the event circumstances arise that would lead to a possible decrease
in the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount [ASC 350-20-35-30, ASU 2017-
04].
As long as the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying value, goodwill is not
considered to be impaired. If the fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss
must be reported for the amount by which the carrying amount of reporting unit exceeds its fair
value. However, the impairment cannot exceed the amount of goodwill originally recognized for
that reporting unit [ASC 350-20-35-11, ASU 2017-04]
At the date of acquisition, Plush Corporation recognized goodwill of $20,000 ($450,000 –
$430,000) and assigned it to a single reporting unit. Even though the fair value of the reporting
unit increased to $485,000 at December 31, 20X5, Plush Corporation must test for impairment of
goodwill if the carrying value of Plush’s investment in the reporting unit is above that amount. That
would be the case if the carrying value were determined to be $500,000. If the carrying value of
the reporting unit’s net assets exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit’s net assets, an
impairment is recorded for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value (but
the impairment is limited to the amount of goodwill reported by that unit). If the carrying amount
were $500,000 and the fair value of the reporting unit were $485,000, The impairment would be
$15,000 ($500,000 – $485,000). On the other hand, if the fair value were greater than the carrying
value, there would be no goodwill impairment. For example, if the carrying value of the reporting
unit were determined to be $470,000, there would be no impairment.

With the information provided, we do not know if there has been an impairment of the goodwill
involved in the purchase of Common Corporation. However, Plush must follow the procedures
outlined here in testing for impairment at December 31, 20X5.

C1-5 Risks Associated with Acquisitions
Alphabet discloses on pages 9-10 of its 10-K that acquisitions, investments, and divestitures are
an important part of its corporate strategy. The company goes on to discuss relevant risks
associated with these activities. The specific risk areas identified include:
The use of management time on acquisitions-related activities may temporarily divert
management’s time and focus from normal operations.
After acquiring companies, there is a risk that Alphabet may not successfully develop the
business and technologies of the acquired firms.
It can be difficult to implement controls, procedures, and policies appropriate for a public
company that were not already in place in the acquired company.
Integrating the accounting, management information, human resources, and other
administrative systems can be challenging.
The company sometimes encounters difficulties in transitioning operations, users, and
customers into Alphabet’s existing platforms.
Government “red tape” in obtaining necessary approvals can reduce the potential strategic
benefits of acquisitions.
There are many difficulties associated with foreign acquisitions due to differences in
culture, language, economics, currencies, politic, and regulation.
Since corporate cultures can vary significantly, there are potential difficulties in integrating
the employees of an acquired company into the Google organization.
It can be difficult to retain employees who worked for companies that Alphabet acquires.
There may be legal liabilities for activities of acquired companies.
Litigation of claims against acquired companies or as a result of acquisitions can be
problematic.
Anticipated benefits of acquisitions may not materialize.
Acquisitions through equity issuances can result in dilution to existing shareholders.
Similarly, the issuance of debt can result in other costs. Impairments, restructuring
charges, and other unfavorable results can result.
C1-6 Leveraged Buyouts
a. A leveraged buyout (LBO) involves acquiring a company in a transaction or series of planned
transactions that include using a very high proportion of debt, often secured by the assets of the
target company. Normally, the investors acquire all of the stock or assets of the target company.
A management buyout (MBO) occurs when the existing management of a company acquires all
or most of the stock or assets of the company. Frequently, the investors in LBOs include
management, and thus an LBO may also be an MBO

b. The FASB has not dealt with leveraged buyouts in either current pronouncements or exposure
drafts of proposed standards. The Emerging Issues Task Force has addressed limited aspects of
accounting for LBOs. In EITF 84-23, “Leveraged Buyout Holding Company Debt,” the Task Force
did not reach a consensus. In EITF 88-16, “Basis in Leveraged Buyout Transactions,” the Task
Force did provide guidance as to the proper basis that should be recognized for an acquiring
company’s interest in a target company acquired through a leveraged buyout.
c. Whether an LBO is a type of business combination is not clear and probably depends on the
structure of the buyout. The FASB has not taken a position on whether an LBO is a type of
business combination. The EITF indicated that LBOs of the type it was considering are similar to
business combinations. Most LBOs are effected by establishing a holding company for the
purpose of acquiring the assets or stock of the target company. Such a holding company has no
substantive operations. Some would argue that a business combination can occur only if the
acquiring company has substantive operations. However, neither the FASB nor EITF has
established such a requirement. Thus, the question of whether an LBO is a business combination
is unresolved.
d. The primary issue in deciding the proper basis for an interest in a company acquired in an LBO,
as determined by EITF 88-16, is whether the transaction has resulted in a change in control of
the target company (a new controlling shareholder group has been established). If a change in
control has not occurred, the transaction is treated as a recapitalization or restructuring, and a
change in basis is not appropriate (the previous basis carries over). If a change in control has
occurred, a new basis of accounting may be appropriate.

SOLUTIONS TO EXERCISES
E1-1 Multiple-Choice Questions on Complex Organizations
1. b – As companies grow in size and respond to their unique business environment, they often
develop complex organizational and ownership structures.
(a) Incorrect. The need to avoid legal liability is not a direct result of increased complexity.
(c) Incorrect. Part of the reason the business environment is complex is due to the
increased number and type of divisions and product lines in companies.
(d) Incorrect. This statement is false. There has been an impact on organizational
structure and management.
2. d – A transfer of product to a subsidiary does not constitute a sale for income purposes and
as such would not increase profit for the parent.
(a) Incorrect. Shifting risk is a common reason for establishing a subsidiary.
(b) Incorrect. Corporations often establish subsidiaries in other regulatory environments
so that the parent company is not explicitly affected by the regulatory control.
(c) Incorrect. Corporations will often establish subsidiaries to take advantage of tax
benefits that exist in different regions.
3. a – When a merger occurs, all the assets and liabilities are transferred to the purchasing
company and any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets is
recorded as goodwill on the purchaser’s books.
(b) Incorrect. This combination results in a parent-subsidiary relationship in which an
investment in Spade would be recorded. In the event that goodwill were present in this
transaction, it would be reported on the consolidated books and not Poker’s books.
(c) Incorrect. In a spin-off, no change to net assets occurs, and consequently no goodwill
is recorded.
(d) Incorrect. In a split-off, no change to net assets occurs, and consequently no goodwill
is recorded.
4. b – In an internal expansion in which the existing company creates a new subsidiary, the
assets and liabilities are recorded at the carrying values of the original company.
(a) Incorrect. This is not in accordance with GAAP; assets are transferred at the parent’s
book (carrying) value.
(c) Incorrect. Not in accordance with US GAAP; no gain or loss is permitted because the
assets are transferred at the parent’s book value.
(d) Incorrect. Not in accordance with US GAAP – Goodwill is not created when a
company creates a subsidiary through internal expansion.
5. d – This is the proper impairment test required under US GAAP, according to FASB 142/ASC
350.
(a) Incorrect. This is not the proper test for impairment under US GAAP.
(b) Incorrect. This is not the proper test for impairment under US GAAP.
(c) Incorrect. This is not the proper test for impairment under US GAAP.

E1-2 Multiple-Choice Questions on Recording Business Combinations
[AICPA Adapted]
1. a – Goodwill equals the excess sum of the consideration given over the sum of the fair value
of identifiable assets less liabilities.
(b) Incorrect. Assets considered only need be identifiable, not just tangible. For example,
patents would be identifiable, but not tangible.
(c) Incorrect. Assets considered only have to be identifiable. This includes both tangible
and intangible identifiable assets.
(d) Incorrect. The calculation of goodwill requires a remeasurement of the assets and
liabilities at fair value, not book value.
2. c – “Costs of issuing equity securities used to acquire the acquire are treated in the same
manner as stock issue costs are normally treated, as a reduction in the paid-in capital
associated with the securities” A reduction to the paid-in capital account results in a
reduction in the fair value of the securities issued.
(a) Incorrect. Stock issue costs are not expensed but are charged as a reduction in paid-
in capital.
(b) Incorrect. Stock issue costs result in a reduction of stockholder’s equity, not an
increase.
(d) Incorrect. Stock issue costs result in a reduction of equity, and are not capitalized.
They are not added to goodwill.
3. d – When a new company is acquired, the assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value.
(a) Incorrect. Historical cost is not always reflective of actual value, thus fair values are
used.
(b) Incorrect. Book value is often different than fair value, thus fair value is the appropriate
basis.
(c) Incorrect. This method is also unacceptable. Fair value is the appropriate basis.
4. d – This combination would result in a bargain purchase.
(a) Incorrect. Deferred credits do not arise as a result of fair value of identifiable assets
exceeding fair value of the consideration.
(b) Incorrect. The fair value is not reduced, and deferred credits do not arise in this
situation.
(c) Incorrect. The fair value is not reduced, and deferred credits do not arise in this
situation.
5. c – $875,000 – $800,000 = $75,000. Total consideration given – FV of net assets = Goodwill

E1-3 Multiple-Choice Questions on Reported Balances [AICPA Adapted]
1. d – $2,900,000. New APIC Balance = existing APIC on Poe’s books + APIC from new stock
issuance. (200,000*($18-$10) + $1,300,000 = $2,900,000)
2. d – $600,000. The total balance in the investment account is equal to the total consideration
given in the combination. (10,000 *$60 per share = $600,000)
3. c – $150,000. Goodwill = Consideration given – FV of net assets acquired. FV of Net Assets:
$80,000 + $190,000 + $560,000 – $180,000 = $650,000. (800,000 – 650,000 = 150,000)
4. c – $4,000,000. The increase in net assets is solely attributable to the FV of the consideration
given, the nonvoting preferred stock.
(a) Incorrect. This answer only reflects the book value of Master’s net assets.
(b) Incorrect. This answer only reflects the fair value of Master’s net assets.
(d) Incorrect. The additional stock related to the finder’s fee is not capitalized, but rather
expensed.
E1-4 Multiple-Choice Questions Involving Account Balances
1. c – When the parent creates the subsidiary, the equipment is transferred at cost with the
accompanying accumulated depreciation (which in effect is the book value).
($100,000/10 = $10,000 per year * 4 = $40,000.)
(a) Incorrect. When a subsidiary is created internally, the assets are transferred as they
were on the parent’s books (carrying value). Fair value is not considered.
(b) Incorrect. This is the proper carrying value of the asset, but it should be recorded at
cost with the accompanying accumulated depreciation.
(d) Incorrect. When a subsidiary is created internally, the assets are transferred as they
were on the parent’s books (carrying value).
2. c – The assets are transferred at the carrying value on Pead’s books, and thus no change in
reported net assets occurs.
(a) Incorrect. No change occurs.
(b) Incorrect. No change occurs.
(d) Incorrect. No change occurs.
3. b – APIC = $140,000 (BV) – 7,000 * $8 = $84,000.
4. b – $35,000. Since the carrying value of the reporting unit ($330,000) is lower than the fair
value of the reporting unit’s net assets ($350,000), the goodwill of the reporting unit is not
impaired and will remain at its carrying value of $35,000
5. c – $15,000. The carrying value of the reporting unit’s net assets ($575,000) exceeds the
estimated fair value of the reporting unit ($560,000). The goodwill should be impaired by
the amount by which the carrying value of the unit’s net assets exceeds the estimated fair
value of the reporting unit, $15,000 ($575,000 – $560,000).

E1-15 Goodwill Impairment
a. Goodwill of $80,000 will be reported. The fair value of the reporting unit ($340,000) is
greater than the carrying amount of the reporting unit ($290,000). As a result, no
impairment loss will be recorded.
b. An impairment loss of $10,000 ($290,000 – $280,000) will be recognized. Therefore,
goodwill of $70,000 will be reported (80,000 – 10,000 impairment loss).
c. An impairment loss of $30,000 ($290,000 – $260,000) will be recognized. Therefore,
goodwill of $50,000 will be reported (80,000 – 30,000 impairment loss).
E1-16 Goodwill Impairment
a. No impairment loss will be recognized. The estimated fair value of the reporting unit
($530,000) is greater than the carrying value of the reporting unit’s net assets
($500,000).
b. A goodwill impairment of $15,000 will be recognized ($500,000 – $485,000).
c. A goodwill impairment of $50,000 will be recognized ($500,000 – $450,000).
E1-17 Goodwill Assigned to Reporting Units
Goodwill of $146,000 ($50,000 + $48,000 + $8,000 + $40,000) should be reported,
computed as follows:
Reporting Unit A: A goodwill impairment of $10,000 should be recognized ($700,000 –
$690,000). Thus, goodwill of $50,000 ($60,000 – $10,000 impairment) should be reported
on December 31, 20X7..
Reporting Unit B: There is no goodwill impairment because the fair value of the reporting
unit exceeds the carrying value. Goodwill of $48,000 should be reported on December
31, 20X7.
Reporting Unit C: A goodwill impairment of $20,000 should be recognized ($380,000 –
$370,000). Thus, goodwill of $8,000 ($28,000 – $20,000 impairment) should be reported
on December 31, 20X7.
Reporting Unit D: There is no goodwill impairment because the fair value of the reporting
unit exceeds the carrying value. Goodwill of $40,000 should be reported.

E1-18 Goodwill Measurement
a. The fair value of the reporting unit ($580,000) is greater than the carrying value of the
investment ($550,000). Thus, goodwill is not impaired Goodwill of $150,000 will be
reported.
b. The carrying value of the reporting unit ($550,000) exceeds the fair value of the reporting
unit ($540,000). Thus, an impairment of goodwill of $10,000 ($550,000 – $540,000)
must be recognized. Goodwill of $140,000 will be reported.
c. The carrying value of the reporting unit ($550,000) exceeds the fair value of the reporting
unit ($500,000). Thus, an impairment loss of $50,000 ($550,000 – $500,000) must be
recognized. Goodwill of $100,000 will be reported.
d. The carrying value of the reporting unit ($550,000) exceeds the fair value of the reporting
unit ($460,000). Thus, an impairment loss of $90,000 ($550,000 – $460,000) must be
recognized. Goodwill of $60,000 will be reported.
