Group Case Study #1 Advanced Accounting

1) Thompson Incorporated is not purchasing enough shares to have any control over Panna
Corporation, therefore, this would make it a non-strategic investment. We will assume this
investment is a held-for-trading investment and use the fair value method. Additionally,
Thompson Incorporated must report the gains and losses through net income.

2) Although Thompson Incorporated uses ASPE, which allows for the use of the cost method,
they must use the equity method for this significate influence investment. ASPE only allows the
use of the cost method if the investments are not publicly traded and in this case Panna
Corporations shares are traded on the active market. Thus, Thompson Incorporated must use
the equity method.

1) Thompson Incorporated will have significant influence, therefore, the appropriate

accounting method, under IFRS, will be to use the equity method to account for the
investment in Panna Corporation.
2) We believe this to be a purchasing net assets of another company because Panna
Corporation is a fully operational business. Although, Thompson Incorporated is not buying
the cash or goodwill of Panna Corporation seems to be irrelevant here since they are
purchasing all of the other assets and all of the liabilities. Additionally, the goodwill of
Panna Corporation would be computed at a fair value of $0 anyways. Leaving the cash
($10,000) the only other asset not being purchased. The $10,000 in cash appears to not be
material enough to not constitute this as a business combination. Since this transaction
took place after January 1, 2011, IFRS 3 requires that the acquisition method be used to
account for the combination. Using this method Thompson Incorporated will record the
acquired net assets at fair value and prepare consolidated Financial Statements.

3) This business combination is acquiring enough voting shares to control the other
company. Since this transaction took place after January 1, 2011, IFRS 3 requires that the
acquisition method be used to account for the combination. Using this method Thompson
Incorporated will record the acquired net assets at fair value and prepare consolidated
Financial Statements.

5) The appropriate accounting method for this transaction would be to use the Parent
Company Extension Theory because we are required to use this method in situations
involving negative goodwill. Only the parent can recognize the gain on bargain purchase.
Additionally, NCI must be measured at its share of fair value of the identifiable net assets.
