CHAPTER 1 TH Y Y




E EQUITY METHOD OF ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS
Y Y Y Y Y Y




Chapter Outline
Y




I. Four methods are principally used to account for an investment in equity securities along
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


with a fair value option.
Y Y Y Y




A. Fair value method: applied by an investor when only a small percentage of a
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


company‘s voting stock is held. Y Y Y Y




1. The investor recognizes income when the investee declares a dividend.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y




2. Portfolios are reported at fair value. If fair values are unavailable, investment is
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


reported at cost. Y Y




B. Cost Method: applied to investments without a readily determinable fair value. When t
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


he fair value of an investment in equity securities is not readily determinable, and the i
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


nvestment provides neither significant influence nor control, the investment may be m
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


easured at cost. The investment remains at cost unless
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y




1. A demonstrable impairment occurs for the investment, or
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y




2. An observable price change occurs for identical or similar investments of the same i
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


ssuer.
The investor typically recognizes its share of investee dividends declared as dividend i
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


ncome.

C. Consolidation: when one firm controls another (e.g., when a parent has a majority in
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


terest in the voting stock of a subsidiary or control through variable interests, their fi
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


nancial statements are consolidated and reported for the combined entity.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y




D. Equity method: applied when the investor has the ability to exercise significant
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


influence over operating and financial policies of the investee.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y




1. Ability to significantly influence investee is indicated by several factors including
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


representation on the board of directors, participation in policy-making, etc. Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y




2. GAAP guidelines presume the equity method is applicable if 20 to 50 percent of the

outstanding voting stock of the investee is held by the investor.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y




Current financial reporting standards allow firms to elect to use fair value for any new inves
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


tment in equity shares including those where the equity method would otherwise apply. Ho
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


wever, the option, once taken, is irrevocable. The investor recognizes both investee divide
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


nds and changes in fair value over time as income.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y




II. Accounting for an investment: the equity method
Y Y Y Y Y Y




A. The investor adjusts the investment account to reflect all changes in the equity of the i
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


nvestee company. Y




B. The investor accrues investee income when it is reported in the investee‘s financial
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


statements.

C. Dividends declared by the investee create a reduction in the carrying amount of the In
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


vestment account. This book assumes all investee dividends are declared and paid in
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


the same reporting period.
Y Y Y




III. Special accounting procedures used in the application of the equity method
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


A. Reporting a change to the equity method when the ability to significantly influence an i
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


nvestee is achieved through a series of acquisitions.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


1. Initial purchase(s) will be accounted for by means of the fair value method (or at
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


cost) until the ability to significantly influence is attained.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


2. When the ability to exercise significant influence occurs following a series of stock
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


purchases, the investor applies the equity method prospectively. The total fair valu
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


e at the date significant influence is attained is compared to the investee‘s book va
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


lue to determine future excess fair value amortizations.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


B. Investee income from other than continuing operations
Y Y Y Y Y Y


1. The investor recognizes its share of investee reported other comprehensive
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


income (OCI) through the investment account and the investor‘s own OCI.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


2. Income items such as discontinued operations that are reported separately by the i
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


nvestee should be shown in the same manner by the investor. The materiality of th
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


ese other investee income elements (as it affects the investor) continues to be a cri
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


terion for separate disclosure. Y Y Y


C. Investee losses Y


1. Losses reported by the investee create corresponding losses for the investor.
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


2. A permanent decline in the fair value of an investee‘s stock should be recognized i
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


mmediately by the investor as an impairment loss. Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


3. Investee losses can possibly reduce the carrying value of the investment account t
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


o a zero balance. At that point, the equity method ceases to be applicable and the f
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


air-value method is subsequently used. Y Y Y Y


D. Reporting the sale of an equity investment Y Y Y Y Y Y


1. The investor applies the equity method until the disposal date to establish a proper
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


book value. Y


2. Following the sale, the equity method continues to be appropriate if enough shares
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


are still held to maintain the investor‘s ability to significantly influence the investee. I
Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y


f that ability has been lost, the fair-value method is subsequently used.
