Subs To Doa
Subs To Doa
This chapter deals with the procedures to be used in the accounting for results of
operations of the subsidiary as well as preparation of consolidated working papers to
facilitate the preparation of a consolidated statement of financial position, statement of
income and statement of retained earnings subsequent to the date of business
combination.
Cost Method
PAS 27 provides that under the COST METHOD, an investor’s investment in
the investee account is recognized at cost. The investor recognizes income from the
investment only to the extent that the investor receives distributions from accumulated
profits of the investee arising after the date of acquisition.
Equity Method
The equity method is used when the acquirer/investor owns 20% or more (less
than 50%) of the voting power of the investee, thereby exercising significant influence
over the acquired company’s (investee) operations (PAS 28).
in the investee’s profit or loss. Such changes include those arising from revaluation of
assets and liabilities.
In developing the working papers for the Consolidated Financial Statements, the
method used to account for the business combination must be known as this would
determine the nature of the eliminating entries to be made.
PAS 27 provides that when separate financial statements are prepared, investment
in subsidiaries shall be accounted for at cost. Thus, only the cost method was made used
of in the following illustrations of accounting for a business combination subsequent to
date of acquisition.
Assume that on January 2, 20x8, Parent Company purchases all the ordinary
shares of stock of Subsidiary Company for P500,000. At the time of acquisition,
Subsidiary Company has P400,000 of ordinary shares outstanding and retained earnings
of P100,000. Analysis of the acquisition is as follows:
On December 31, 20x8, Subsidiary Company reported the following results of its
operations:
The above journal entries would result to the following account balances in the
books of Parent Company
The following are the eliminating entries to be prepared by Parent Company and
Subsidiary Company for 20x8.

1. Elimination (1) deals with the elimination of the intercompany investment and
subsidiary equity accounts on the beginning of the period based on the
parent’s percentage of interest. In this illustration, the parents interest is at
100%
2. The consolidated net income and consolidated retained earnings in the
working paper may be verified as follows, to assure their accuracy:
From the illustration above, it is to be noted that the consolidated net income is
the result of all revenues and expenses of the individual consolidating companies arising
from transactions with non-affiliated companies. The net income is the part of the total
income of the enterprise that is assigned to the shareholders of the parent.
The consolidated retained earnings on the other hand, is that portion of the
undistributed earnings of the consolidated enterprise accruing to the shareholders of the
parent company.

Eliminating entry (3) reflects the difference of P150,000 which represents the
share of Parent in the undistributed earnings of Subsidiary in prior years since the
earnings of the subsidiary under the cost method are not recorded by the parent company.
Illustration 5-2
Assume that on January 2, 20x8, Parent Company purchases 80% of the ordinary
shares of Subsidiary Company for P400,000. All other data are the same as those used in
the previous example. The computation of the difference resulting from the ownership
situation is as follows:
After posting the above entries for 20x8 under the cost method of accounting, the
balance of Investment in Subsidiary Company Share and Dividend Income accounts are
P400,000 and P40,000 respectively.

Accounting Highlights
- The carrying amount of the parent’s investment and its portion of equity in each
subsidiary are eliminated in accordance with the procedures in PFRS No. 3.
- Intercompany account balances and intercompany transactions are eliminated in
full.
- Non-controlling interest in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are
identified and presented separately as part of the parent’s equity.
- Non-controlling interest in the profit or loss of subsidiaries are identified but
are not deducted from profit for the period in accordance with PAS 27 stating
that income attributable to Non-controlling interest is separately presented in
Chapter 4 61
Consolidated Financial Statements – Subsequent to Date of Acquisition
Non-controlling Interest
The Non-controlling Interest is presented in Parent’s Consolidated Balance Sheet
as a separate item in the parent’s equity portion in the shareholders’ equity and shall be
separately disclosed.
Using the data in our previous example, assume that Parent Company purchases
80% of the ordinary shares of Subsidiary Company on January 2, 20x8 for P500,000.
Assume further that on the date of the combination, all assets and liabilities of Subsidiary
Company have fair market values equal to their book values, except for the following:
(Under) Over-
Book Value Fair Value
valuation
Inventory 80, 000 P 85, 000 P ( 5, 000)
Property and Equipment 620, 000 680, 000 (60, 000)
P700, 000 P765, 000 P (65, 000)
The computation and allocation of difference resulting from the above ownership
situation is as follows:
All of the inventory on January 5, 20x8 to which the difference relates are sold
during 20x8. The property and equipment have a remaining life of 10 years from the date
of acquisition and straight line method of depreciation is used.
For the first year, immediately after the acquisition, Subsidiary Company reports
the following:
On December 31, 20x8, after posting the above entries, Parent Corporation’s
Investment in Subsidiary Company Share and Dividend Income accounts would show
balances of P500, 000 and P40, 000 respectively.
Allocated Amortization
Difference 20x8 20x9 to 20x17
Inventory P 5,000 P 5,000 P 0
Plant and Equipment 60,000 6,000 6,000
Goodwill 48,000 - -
Total P 113,000 P 11,000 P 6,000
Since the inventory was totally sold in 20x8, no provision for amortization in
future periods is already needed. The allocated difference to plant and equipment is
amortized over its remaining life of 10 years. Goodwill is not amortized but subject to
impairment.
