ABSORPTION The combination of two or more companies in which one company acquires the other company and the other company absorbs in the acquiring company is called absorption. For example Company “A” acquires the Company “B”. So that after the acquiring the name of Company “B” will not exist but the name of Company “A” will exist. All the assets and liabilities of old company (B) are transferred to absorbing company (A).

PURCHASE CONSIDERATION Purchase consideration is the amount paid by the new company to both old companies. The purchase consideration can be made in two different ways:

Purchase consideration by net asset method. Purchase consideration by lump sum method.

a) PURCHASE CONSIDERATION BY NET ASSET METHOD In this method the purchase consideration is calculated according to the value of net asset (total assets – total liabilities). It means that the amount paid to the old companies is equal to their book value (if liquidation expenses are not paid separately by acquiring company) and no goodwill or capital reserve arises.

COMPUTATION OF PURCHASE CONSIDERATION: “B” Co. Total assets XXX Less: Total liabilities (XXX) Net assets XXX Add: Liquidation expense XXX Purchase consideration XXX

b) PURCHASE CONSIDERATION BY LUMP SUM METHOD In this method the acquiring company paid the amount of consideration without calculating the net assets value. In this method there is a chance of goodwill or capital reserve.

COMPUTATION OF PURCHASE CONSIDERATION: Company – B: XXX no. of shares @ Rs.XX each. Rs.XXX
