CHAPTER 6
SOLUTIONS TO MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS, EXERCISES AND PROBLEMS

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS
1.

c
Only the expenses related to provision of services are transactions with outside parties.
The $3,000,000 revenue reported by Suzlon and the $3,000,000 expense reported by
Patni are eliminated.

2.

d
Eliminating entries remove the intercompany asset (loan receivable) and liability (loan
payable) and the interest revenue and interest expense. There is no effect on timing of
income recognition, and therefore no adjustment is made to the investment account or
beginning retained earnings.

3.

a
Downstream sales only affect equity in net income. The effect is [($540,000 - $480,000)
- ($540,000 - $480,000)/1.2] = increase of $10,000.

4.

d
Only the adjustment to 2013 depreciation affects equity in net income and noncontrolling

interest in net income. It is an upstream sale, so the increase of $2,000,000/10 =
$200,000 is shared 80% - 20%.

5.

b
From the consolidated company’s perspective, it paid $35,000 for the land and sold it for
$85,000. Therefore the consolidated gain is $50,000.

6.

a
The intercompany gain, recognized by the subsidiary in 2010, is $400,000. In 2013, the
parent sells the land to an outside party for $550,000, reporting a loss of $850,000 (=
$1,400,000 - $550,000). The consolidated loss is $450,000 (= $1,000,000 - $550,000).
The 2013 eliminating entry adjusts the reported $850,000 loss to $450,000, and
reclassifies it from the subsidiary’s beginning retained earnings.

To eliminate the intercompany profit on upstream intercompany sales, assumed confirmed
during 2013, from the beginning inventory. Prior year profits on upstream sales are removed
from Converse’s beginning retained earnings; $15,000 = $75,000 x 20%. Prior year profits on
downstream sales are added to Nike’s Investment in Converse as they had been removed from
the Investment account via the 2013 equity accrual; $27,000 = $117,000 - 117,000/1.3.

20% = $16,000) + [110,500 - (110,500/1.3) = $25,500].

E6.4

Analysis of Land Sale Alternatives

Under a direct sale of the land by Sawyer to the developer, Sawyer reports a gain of $3,900,000.
The noncontrolling interest in net income is $780,000 (= .2 x $3,900,000) and the distribution to
the noncontrolling shareholder is $390,000 (= .5 x $780,000).
Under the intercompany sale, even though the gain is larger, it is eliminated in consolidation, and
does not enter into the noncontrolling interest in net income. As long as the parent holds the land
(which it plans to do under a long-term lease), the gain is not reflected in noncontrolling interest
in net income. Moreover, the income from the lease is the parent’s income, so the
noncontrolling interest is unaffected. Under this approach, the noncontrolling stockholder
receives nothing.
Hence, the direct sale of the land by Sawyer to the developer generates the most dividends for
the noncontrolling stockholder.

1.

ROA = ($9,000 - $8,000 + $500)/($10,000 + $500) = $1,500/$10,500 = .143
ROS = $1,500/($9,000 + $3,000) = $1,500/$12,000 = .125

2.

= $1,100/$14,000 = .079
ROS = $1,100/($9,000 +$2,000) = .10

Consolidation (2) eliminates the intercompany revenue and the unconfirmed
intercompany gain, voiding the internal transaction for financial reporting purposes.
Ratios look better when the transaction with the SPE is considered to be arm’s length and
consolidation is avoided (1).

b.

1.

TL/TA = $6,000/($10,000 + $3,500) = $6,000/$13,500 = .444

2.

TL/TA = ($6,000 + $3,600 + $3,500)/($10,000 + $4,000 + $3,500)
= $13,100/$17,500 = .749

Without consolidation (1) Sponsor recognizes the $3,500 cash but not the liability, but in
consolidation (2) the liability is also counted along with Sponsoree’s assets and liabilities.
Sponsoree is more leveraged than Sponsor; Sponsoree’s separate TL/TA = $3,600/$4.000
= .9, while Sponsor’s separate TL/TA = $6,000/$10,000 = .6. Therefore consolidating
Sponsoree causes consolidated TL/TA to be higher than Sponsor’s separate TL/TA.

c.

1.

ROA = [$9,000 - $8,000 + .25 ($4,300 - $3,500)]/($10,000 + $3,500)
= $1,200/$13,500 = .089


2.

ROA = ($9,000 + $2,000 – $8,000 – $1,900)/($10,000 + $4,000 + $3,500)
= $1,100/$17,500 = .063

Enron apparently used this technique to recognize gains on its own stock as income,
something not permitted by GAAP. Without consolidation (1), Sponsor’s income
includes 25% of the ―gain‖ on its stock recognized in Sponsoree’s income and booked by
Sponsor via the equity method. With consolidation (2) the ―stock issuance‖ is voided and
neither entity recognizes income on the appreciation of Sponsor’s stock.

To include in current year income the portion of the original intercompany gain of
$50,000 which had not been confirmed through depreciation as of the beginning of the

NOTE: If there is a noncontrolling interest in Smart, it shares in this $30,000 gain but not
in the gain of $280,000 recorded by Pert on the external sale; $280,000 = $400,000 –
