Module 5 Business Combination Consolidated FS Subsequent To Aquisition Date
BUSINESS COMBINATION
The bringing together of separate entities or businesses into one reporting entity. The result is that one entity,
the acquirer, obtains control of one or more other businesses, the acquiree. (PFRS 3 p. 4).
A business is defined as an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and
managed for the purpose of providing a return directly to investors or other owners, members or participants.
(PFRS 3 p. 4)
b. Joint venture
c. Combination under common control
CONTROL
General rule:
SIGNIFICANT INFLUENCE
(at least 20%-50%) = ASSOCIATE
PFRS 10 (2013): Consolidated Financial Statement (Supersedes PAS 27: Consolidated Financial Statements and
Accounting for Investments in Subsidiaries)
“The investor controls an investee when the investor, through its power over the investee, is exposed, or
has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those
returns.”
PFRS 3 par. 5 A business combination may be structured in a variety of ways for legal, taxation or other reasons. It
may involve the purchase by an entity of the equity of another entity, the purchase of all the net assets of another
entity, the assumption of the liabilities of another entity, or the purchase of some of the net assets of another entity
that together form one or more businesses. It may involve the establishment of a new entity to control the combining
entities or net assets transferred, or the restructuring of one or more of the combining entities.
a. ASSET ACQUISITION/FUSION/MERGER or acquisition by one enterprise of the net assets of another enterprise
and integrating these into it own operations (no parent-subsidiary relationship). Also referred to as Legal Merger.
b. STOCK ACQUISITION/STOCK CONTROL or acquisition by one enterprise of the majority shares of another
enterprise. Parent-subsidiary relationship in which the acquirer is the parent and the acquiree a subsidiary of the
acquirer.
A business combination may result in a parent-subsidiary relationship in which the acquirer is the parent and
the acquiree a subsidiary of the acquirer. In such circumstances, the acquirer applies this PFRS in its
consolidated financial statements. It includes its interest in the acquiree in any separate financial statements it
issues as an investment in a subsidiary (see PAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements)
Business combination may be effected by the issue of equity instruments, the transfer of cash, cash equivalents or
other assets, or a combination thereof. The transaction may be between the shareholders of the combining entities or
between one entity and the shareholders of another entity.
ACQUISITION METHOD
All business combination shall be accounted for by applying the acquisition method. (PFRS 3)
The ACQUIRER is the combining entity that obtains control of the other combining entities or businesses.
Usual indicators:
a. The entity with the greater fair value is likely to be the acquirer;
b. The entity giving up cash or other assets is likely to be the acquirer; and
c. The entity whose management is able to dominate is likely to be the acquirer
In a business combination effected through an exchange of equity interest, the entity that issues the equity
interest is normally the acquirer. (IPRS 3 p. 21)
ACQUISITION DATE is the date on which the acquirer obtains control of the acquiree
The acquirer shall MEASURE the cost of acquisition /consideration transferred at the fair values, at the date of
acquisition, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the acquirer, in
exchange for control of the acquiree. Consideration for the acquisition includes the acquisition-date fair value of
contingent consideration.
Published price at the date of exchange of a quoted equity instrument provides the best evidence of the instruments
fair value.
Cost of arranging and issuing financial liabilities (PAS 39 under bond issue cost) and equity instruments (PAS 32
under share premium) shall not be included in the cost of business combination.
All other costs associated with the acquisition must be expensed, including reimbursements to the acquiree for
bearing some of the acquisition costs. Examples of costs to be expensed include finder's fees; advisory, legal,
accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees; and general administrative costs, including the costs
of maintaining an internal acquisitions department.
Goodwill internally developed by the acquired company and included in its statement of financial position as part of
assets to be transferred is IGNORED in computing for goodwill from combination or in the consolidation of parent and
subsidiary financial statements
GOODWILL
the aggregate of (i) the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred, (ii) the amount of any
NCI, and in a business combination achieved in stages, the acquisition-date fair value of the acquirer's
previously-held equity interest in the acquiree; and
the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed
(measured in accordance with IFRS 3).
If the difference above is negative, the resulting GAIN is recognized as a bargain purchase in profit or loss.
Goodwill acquired in a business combination shall not be amortized. Instead, the acquirer shall test it for
impairment. After initial recognition, the acquirer shall measure goodwill acquired in a business combination at cost
less any accumulated impairment losses. But Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) are allowed to amortized
goodwill (10 years) based on PFRS for SME
PFRS 3 allows an accounting policy choice, available on a transaction by transaction basis, to measure NCI either
at:
fair value (sometimes called the full goodwill method), or
the NCI's proportionate share of net assets (sometimes called partial goodwill method) of the acquiree
(option is available on a transaction by transaction basis).
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (under Cost Method with NCI measured at proportionate
share of net assets)
PFRS 3 deals with the accounting for a business combination at acquisition date, while PFRS 10 deals with the
preparation and presentation of consolidated financial statements after the business combination
All parent entities are required to prepare consolidated financial statements except:
1. A parent is exempt from presenting consolidated financial statements if:
a. it is a subsidiary of another entity (whether wholly-owned or partially-owned) and all its other
owners do not object to its non-presentation of consolidated financial statements
b. its debt or equity instruments are not traded in a public market (or being processed for such
purpose); and
Accounting for Business Combination and Consolidated FS
c. its ultimate or any intermediate parent produces consolidated financial statements that are available
for public use and comply with PFRS
2. Post-employment benefit plan or other long-term employee benefit plans to which PAS 19 applies
CONSOLIDATION PROCEDURES:
1. The investment account and the parent’s share of equity interest over the subsidiary are eliminated.
2. Intra group balances, transactions, income and expenses shall be eliminated in full
3. Assets and liabilities of the parent and the subsidiary(s) are combined, item by item.
4. If the portion of equity owned by the parent is less than 100%, the share of the non-controlling interest in
the net assets of the subsidiary should be separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet.
The following are the balance sheet of P and S Co. at March 1, 2003 just before P acquired stocks from S:
P Company S Company
Cash P 40,000 P 28,000
Receivables 60,000 52,000

COST METHOD
When cost method is used, the investment in subsidiary account is retained at its original cost of acquisition balance.
No adjustments are made to the account for income as it is earned by the subsidiary. Income on the investment is
limited to dividends received from the subsidiary. The cost method is acceptable for subsidiaries that re to be
consolidated because, in the consolidation process, the investment account is eliminated entirely.
Accounting for Business Combination and Consolidated FS
Dividend Income
PFRS 3 states that “An entity shall recognize a dividend from a subsidiary, joint venture, or associate in profit or loss in
its separate financial statements when its right to receive the dividends is established.”
The effect of these changes is that all dividends paid or payable by a subsidiary to a parent are to be recognized as
revenue by the parent.
Entities are no obliged to apply a two-stage process. Once recognized, all dividends are taken to income and the
parent must now determine whether or not the investment has been impaired as a result.
Consolidated financial statement amounts are the same, regardless of whether a parent company uses the cost
method or equity method to account for a subsidiary’s operations. Although there appears to have significant
differences between the cost and equity methods, the main difference is one of timing.
The parent company opted not to record the goodwill impairment loss under the equity method.

The consolidated income statement is essentially a combination of the revenue, expense, gain, and loss accounts of all
consolidated affiliates after elimination representing the effect of transactions among the affiliates. The combined
income of the affiliates, after eliminating any intercompany transactions, is referred to as consolidated net income.
All revenues and expenses of the individual consolidating companies arising from transactions and actions with
unaffiliated companies are included in the consolidated financial statements. Consolidated Net Income is equal to the
parent’s income from its own operations, excluding any investment income from consolidated subsidiaries, plus the net
income from each of the consolidated subsidiaries, adjusted for any differential write-off. Inter-corporate investment
income from consolidated subsidiaries included in the parent’s net income under either the cost model or equity method
must be eliminated in computing consolidated income to avoid double counting.
The consolidated retained earnings statement consists of beginning consolidated retained earnings plus the controlling
interest in consolidated net income (or minus the controlling interest in a consolidated loss), minus parent company
dividends declared. The net balance represents retained earnings at the end of the period. The non-controlling interest
in net assets is reflected as a separate component of equity.
The only retained earnings figure reported in the consolidated balance sheet is not entirely consistent with the
computation of consolidated net income has changed to an entity theory basis, the treatment of retained earnings is still
more consistent with the traditional parent company approach. The retained earnings figure in the consolidated balance
sheet is the retained earnings attributable to the controlling interest.
The consolidation procedures subsequent to the acquisition date involve the same procedures however, in the
illustration below, changes in the subsidiary’s net assets since the acquisition date are to be considered.

PFRS 10 considers tha when a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary decreases to the point that it no longer
controls that subsidiary, a significant event occurs.
A parent that has been including a subsidiary in its consolidated financial statements should exclude that company from
future consolidation if the parent can no longer exercise control over it.
If a parent loses control of a subsidiary and no longer holds an equity interest in the former subsidiary, it recognizes a
gain or loss for the difference between any proceeds received from the event leading to loss of control (e.g., sale of
interest, expropriation of subsidiary) and the carrying amount of the parent’s equity interest.
If a parent loses control but maintains a non-controlling equity interest in the former subsidiary, it must recognize in
income a gain or loss for the difference, at the date control is lost between.
When control of a subsidiary is lost, and an interest is retained, that interest is measured at fair value, and this is factored
into the calculation of the gain or loss on disposal.
When control is lost, the parent derecognizes all assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interest at their carrying amount.
Any retained interest in the former subsidiary is recognized at its fair value at the date of control is lost. If the loss of
control of the former subsidiary involves the distribution of equity interests to owners of the parent acting in their capacity
of owners, that distribution is recognized at the date control is lost. A gain or loss of control is recognized as the net of the
proceeds, if any, and these transactions. Any such gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss attributable to the parent.

EQUITY METHOD
The equity method of accounting is essentially accrual accounting for equity investments that enable the investor to
exercise significant influence over the investee. Under the equity method, we record the investments at cost and adjust
earnings, losses and dividends. The investor reports its share of the investee’s earnings as investment income and its
share of the investee’s losses as investment losses. Dividends received by the investees are disinvestments under the
equity method, and they are recorded as decreases in the investment account. Thus, investment income under th eequity
Accounting for Business Combination and Consolidated FS
method reflects the investor’s share of the net income of the investee, and the investment account reflects the investor’s
share of the investee’s net assets.
The equity method of accounting is often called a one-line consolidation. The name comes about because the investment
is reported in a single amount on one line of the investor’s balance sheet, and investment income is reported in a single
amount on one line of the investor’s income statement (except when the investee has extraordinary or other “below-the-
line” items that require separate disclosure). One-line consolidation also means that a parent-company/investor’s income
and stockholders’ equity are the same when a subsidiary company/investee is accounted for under a complete and
correct application of the equity method and when the financial statements of a parent and subsidiary are consolidated.
Consolidated financial statements show the same income and the same net assets but include the details of revenues
and expenses and assets and liabilities.
