AND 50%•When an investor owns between 20% and 50% of the common stock of a corporation, the investor has significant influence over the financial and operating activities of the investee.

•Under the equity method, the investment in common stock is initially recorded at cost, and the investment account is adjusted annually to show the investor’s equity in the investee.

• Each year, the investor 1) debits the investment account and credits revenue for its share of the investee’s net income and 2) credits dividends received to the investment account.

RECORDING STOCK INVESTMENTS HOLDINGS OF MORE THAN 50%

RECORDING STOCK INVESTMENTS HOLDINGS OF MORE THAN 50%

A company that owns more than 50% of the common stock of another entity is known as a parent company.

The entity whose stock is owned by the parent company is called the subsidiary (affiliated) company.

The parent company is perceived to have a controlling interest in the subsidiary due to its stock ownership.

When one company owns more than 50% of the common stock of another company, consolidated financial statements are usually prepared.

CATEGORIES OF SECURITIESCATEGORIES OF SECURITIES

For purposes of valuation and reporting at a financial statement date, debt and stock investments are classified into the following THREE categories of securities:1) Trading securities are securities bought and held

primarily for sale in the near term to generate income on short-term price differences.

2) Available-for-sale securities are securities that may be sold in the future.3) Held-to-maturity securities are debt securities that

the investor has the intent and ability to hold to maturity.

ILLUSTRATION 17-6 VALUATION OF TRADING SECURITIES

ILLUSTRATION 17-6 VALUATION OF TRADING SECURITIES

Trading securities are 1) held with the intention of selling them in a short period (generally less than a month), and 2) are reported at fair value, and changes from cost are reported as part of net income.

The changes are reported as unrealized gains or losses since the securities have not been sold. The unrealized gain or loss is the difference between the total cost of trading securities and their total fair value.

Pace Corporation has the following costs and fair values for its investments classified as trading securities:

Pace Corporation has an unrealized gain of $7,000 because total fair value ($147,000) is $7,000 greater than total cost ($140,000). Fair value and the unrealized gain or loss are recorded through an adjusting entry at the time financial statements are prepared. A valuation allowance account, Market Adjustment - Trading, is used to record the difference between the total cost and the total fair value of the securities.

SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

Short-term investments are securities held by a company that are (1) readily marketable and (2) intended to be converted into cash within the next year or operating cycle, whichever is longer.

An investment is readily marketable when it can be sold easily whenever the need for cash arises.

Intent to convert means that management intends to sell the investment within the next year or operating cycle, whichever is longer.
