Stock Acquisitions Chapter Focus - Accounting for Stock Acquisitions • When one company controls

Stock Acquisitions Chapter Focus - Accounting for Stock Acquisitions • When one company controls another company through direct or indirect ownership of some or all of its voting stock. – 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.

Definitions of Subsidiary and Control • The Securities and Exchange Commission defines a subsidiary

Definitions of Subsidiary and Control • 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. 5 LO 1 Meaning of control. Copyright © 2015. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.

Definitions of Subsidiary and Control Subsidiary: –A parent company (and/or the parent’s other subsidiaries)

Definitions of Subsidiary and Control Subsidiary: –A parent company (and/or the parent’s other subsidiaries) owns a controlling financial interest in another company. Control: Ø Both the IASB and the FASB have indicated their opinion that the definition of control should not be limited to the common presumption in practice of a 50% cutoff but should instead include an indirect ability to control another entity’s assets. • The usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest. [FASB ASC paragraph 810 -10 -15 -8] 6 LO 1 Meaning of control. Copyright © 2015. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.

Definitions of Subsidiary and Control (continued): • However, application of the majority voting interest

Definitions of Subsidiary and Control (continued): • However, application of the majority voting interest requirement may not identify the party with a controlling financial interest because the controlling financial interest may be achieved through arrangements that do not involve voting interests. • The first step in determining whether the financial statements should be consolidated is to determine if the reporting entity has a variable interest in another entity, referred to as a potential variable interest entity (VIE). 7 LO 1 Meaning of control.
