Chapter Focus - Accounting for Stock Acquisitions

When one company controls another company through direct or indirect ownership of its voting stock.

Stock AcquisitionStock AcquisitionStock AcquisitionStock Acquisition

Acquiring company referred to as the parent.

Acquired company referred to as the subsidiary.

Other shareholders considered noncontrolling interest.

Parent records interest in subsidiary as an investment.

If a subsidiary owns a controlling interest in one or more other companies, a chain of ownership is forged by which the parent company controls other companies.

LO 2 Noncontrolling interest (NCI).LO 2 Noncontrolling interest (NCI).

Chapter 3-6

The Securities and Exchange Commission defines a subsidiary as an affiliate controlled by another entity, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries.

Control means the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct management and policies of another entity, whether through the ownership of voting shares, by contract, or otherwise.

The FASB stressed the need to prepare consolidated financial statements whenever control exists, even in the absence of a majority ownership.

Investment Elimination

It is necessary to eliminate the investment account of the parent company against the related stockholders’ equity of the subsidiary to avoid double counting of these net assets.

When parent’s share of subsidiary’s equity is eliminated against the investment account, subsidiary’s net assets are substituted for the investment account in the consolidated balance sheet.

“Computation and Allocation of Difference between Implied Value and Book Value”

1. Determine percentage of stock acquired.

2. Divide purchase price by the percentage acquired to calculate the implied value of the subsidiary.

3. Difference between step 2 and book value of subsidiary’s equity must be allocated to adjust the underlying assets and liabilities of the acquired company.

Chapter 3-17



The prior steps lead to the following possible cases:

Case 1. The implied value (IV) of the subsidiary is equal to the book value of the subsidiary’s equity (IV = BV), and

a. The parent company acquires 100% of the subsidiary’s stock; or

b. The parent company acquires less than 100% of the subsidiary’s stock.

Case 2. The implied value of the subsidiary exceeds the book value of the subsidiary’s equity (IV > BV), and



Case 3. The implied value of the subsidiary is less than the book value of the subsidiary’s equity (IV < BV), and
