IAS summary of consolidation


procedures

Cancellation and part cancellation


The preparation consists of two procedures:
Take the individual accounts of the parent company and
each subsidiary and cancel out items which appear as a
asset in one company and a liability in another
Add together all the un-cancelled assets and liabilities
throughout the group

Items requires cancellation:


The asset shares in subsidiary companies which appears
in the parent companys accounts will be matched with the
liabilitys share capital in the subsidiarys accounts
There may be intra-group trading.

IAS summary of consolidation


procedures

Part cancellation
An item may appear in the statements
of financial position of a parent company
and its subsidiary, but not at the same
amounts
The remaining un-cancelled will appear
in the consolidated statements of financial
position

Goodwill arising from consolidation

Non-controlling interest
Non-controlling interest can be valued at:
(a) Share of net assets; or
(b) Fair value (per IFRS 3 revised)
Fair value can be based on MV of shares, or
you may be given the FV.
Valuation of the NCI will affect the goodwill
calculation

Non-controlling interest

Procedure
(a) Aggregate the assets and liabilities in the
statement of financial position is 100%p+100%s
irrespectively of how much actually own
This shows that the amount of net assets controlled by
the group.

(b) Share capital in that of the parent only


(c) Calculate the non-controlling interest share
of the subsidiarys net assets
(d) Balance of subsidiarys reserves are
consolidated

Goodwill arising from consolidation


Goodwill represents the difference between

the amount paid to acquire the net assets of a


subsidiary and the fair value of those net assets.
It may be positive or negative.

Goodwill arising on consolidation is the


difference between the consideration transferred
plus the non-controlling interest and the fair
value of the identifiable assets and liabilities
acquired.

FV. This excess is termed:
Goodwill attributable to the NCI.

Example:
P acquired 75% of the shares in S on 1 January 2007 when S had trained earnings of
15,000. The market share price of Ss shares just before the date of acquisition
was 1.60. P values non-controlling interest at fair value. Good will is not impaired.

Impairment of goodwill
Impairment tests are conducted at least at
each year end. Any resulting impairment
loss is first recognised against
consolidated goodwill.

Purpose

To show the net assets with P controls and the


ownership of those assets

voting rights

Share capital

P only

Reason

Simply reporting to the parent companys shareholders in


another form

Retained
earnings

100%P plus group share of post-acquisition retained


earnings of S less consolidation adjustments

Reason

To show the extent to which the group actually owns total


assets less liabilities

Non-controlling
interest

NIC shares of Ss consolidated net assets, or valuation at


fair value

Reason

To show the entity in a subsidiary not attributable to the


parent

Acquisition of a subsidiary during


its accounting

Profits
and before
acquisition
Necessary
to
distinguish
Profits
and after
acquisition

Dividends and pre-acquisition profits


Dividends paid by the subsidiary to its parent
company may only be credited to profit or loss in
the parents financial statement to the extent that
they are paid from post-acquisition profits.
Dividends received by the parent company from
pre-acquisition profits should be credited to
investment in subsidiarys account and treated as
reducing the cost of shares acquired.
The post-acquisition element is genuinely earned
by the parent and the pre-acquisition element
should be deducted from cost of the combination

Fair value in acquisition accounting

Goodwill.

Any excess consideration transferred


over the acquirers interest in the fair value of the
identifiable assets and liabilities acquired as at
the date of the exchange transaction

Fair value .The amount for which an asset


could be exchanged, or a liability settled,
between knowledgeable, willing parties in an
arms length transaction.

Fair value in acquisition accounting


Fair value adjustment calculation
Two methods:
(a) The subsidiary company might incorporate
any necessary revaluation in its own books of
account
(b) The revaluations may be made as a
consolidation adjustment without being
incorporated in the subsidiary companys books.

Fair value in acquisition accounting


Consideration transferred
the assets transferred by the acquirer,
the liabilities incurred by the acquirer (to former
owners of the acquiree), and
equity interests issued by the acquirer
Deferred consideration
Consideration that is to be paid in the future
should be discounted to present value to
determine its fair value
Contingent consideration
Contingent consideration (i.e. a payment
dependent on whether specified future events
occur or conditions are met, e.g. a profit target) is
measured at fair value taking into account the
probability of expected payment and the time
period to settlement

Fair value in acquisition accounting


Cost of business combination
The general principal is the acquirer should measure the cost of
a business combination as the total of the fair value, at the date
of exchange, of the assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed,
and equity instruments issued by the acquirer, in exchange for
control of the acquiree.
The fair value of any deferred consideration is determined by
discounting the amounts payable to their present value at the
date of exchange.
