FLEXIBILITY
The book’s flexible coverage of topics allows for professors to teach the course at their own pace
and in their preferred order. There are no dependencies between major sections of the text
except that coverage of consolidations should precede multinational accounting if one is to
understand accounting for foreign subsidiaries. It is also advisable that students master the mod-
ule on derivatives before advancing to the chapter on foreign currency transactions. The book
contains enough coverage to fill two advanced courses, but when only one semester is available,
many professors find it ideal to cover the first four to six chapters in business combinations.
The text is divided into the following major topics:

between book and fair values, and reveals all data for the amortization of the differences. The
schedule provides rules for all types of acquisition situations. The income distribution schedule
(known as the IDS) is a set of T accounts that distributes income between the noncontrolling
and controlling interests. It also provides a useful check function to ensure that all intercom-
pany eliminations are properly accounted for. These chapters give the student all topics needed
for the CPA Exam. (For easy reference, the text contains a callout in the margin, as shown here,
that ties the narrative to the worksheets. In addition, the related narrative pages are indicated in Worksheet 3-1: page 150
the upper right side of each worksheet. This allows the reader to quickly locate important
explanations.)
With regard to the alternative worksheet methods and why we follow the approaches we do,
consider the method used to record the investment in the subsidiary’s and the parent’s books.
There are two key points of general agreement. The first is that it doesn’t really matter which
method is used, since the investment account is eliminated. Second, when the course is over, a
student should know how to handle each method: simple equity, full (we call it sophisticated)
equity, and cost. The real issue is which method is the easiest one to learn first. We believe the
winner is simple equity, since it is totally symmetric with the equity accounts of the subsidiary.
It simplifies elimination of subsidiary equity against the investment account. Every change in
subsidiary equity is reflected, on a pro rata basis, in the parent’s investment account. Thus, the
simple equity method becomes the mainline method of the text. We teach the student to con-
vert investments maintained under the cost method to the simple equity method. In practice,
most firms and the majority of the problems in the text use the cost method. This means that
the simple equity method is employed to solve problems that begin as either simple equity or
cost method problems.
We also cover the sophisticated equity method, which amortizes the excess of cost or book
value through the investment account. This method should also adjust for intercompany profits
through the investment account. The method is cumbersome because it requires the student to
deal with amortizations of excess and intercompany profits in the investment account before
getting to the consolidated worksheet, which is designed to handle these topics. This means
teaching consolidating procedures without the benefit of a worksheet. We cover the method
after the student is proficient with a worksheet and the other methods. Thorough understand-
ing of the sophisticated method is important so that it can be applied to influential investments
that are not consolidated. (This is covered in the Appendix.)
Another major concern among advanced accounting professors has to do with the work-
sheet style used. There are three choices: the horizontal (trial balance) format, the vertical
(stacked) method, and the balance sheet only. Again, we do cover all three, but the horizontal
format is our main method. Horizontal is by far the most appealing to students. They have used
it in both introductory and intermediate accounting. It is also the most likely method to be
found in practice. On this basis, we use it initially to develop all topics. We cover the vertical
format but not until the student is proficient with the horizontal format. There is no difference
in the elimination procedures; only the worksheet logistics differ. It takes only one problem
assignment to teach the students this approach so they are prepared for its possible appearance
on the CPA Exam. The balance-sheet-only format has no reason to exist other than its use as a
CPA Exam testing shortcut. We cover it in the Appendix.
Chapter 6 may be more essential for those entering practice than it is for the CPA Exam. It
contains cash flow for consolidated firms, consolidated earnings per share, and taxation issues.
Support schedules guide the worksheet procedures for consolidated companies, which are taxed
as separate entities. Taxation is the most difficult application of consolidation procedures. Every
intercompany transaction is a tax allocation issue. Teaching the tax allocation issues with every
topic as it is introduced is very confusing to students. We prefer to have the students fully
understand worksheet procedures without taxes and then introduce taxes.

and the impact of preferred stock in the subsidiary’s equity structure. Chapter 8 deals with the
impact of subsidiary equity transactions including stock dividends, sale of common stock
shares, and subsidiary reacquisitions of shares. The chapter also considers indirect or three-tier
ownership structures and reciprocal holdings where the subsidiary owns parent shares.
Accounting for equity method investments is located in the Appendix that follows Chapter 8.
The methods used for consolidations are adapted to influential investments. The IDS schedule
used to distribute consolidated net income is used to calculate investment income.

misma crueldad, te deleitas y
recibes contentamiento en verme
metido en este piélago de
persecuciones. Bien creo que, si
alguno se puede llamar infierno,
fuera de aquel en que los
condenados perpetuamente
padecen, que será éste en que
agora yo me veo, que según son
semejantes mis penas á las
suyas, la mayor diferencia que me
parece que hay es que ellos sin
redención penarán para siempre y
tú podrías restituirme y ponerme
en la cumbre de la gloria de tu
gracia, viéndome yo con algún
favor de manera que pensasen
ser restituido en ella, y no tan
desfavorecido como con
respuestas tan desabridas me he
hallado. Pero ¿de qué me agravio
que, si bien lo miro todo, poca
razón tengo de quexarme, pues
que todo el amor está en mí para
contigo, sin dexar ninguno ni
parte dél para que tú lo puedas
tener conmigo? Yo tengo la fe tan
entera, la amistad tan cumplida, la
ley tan verdadera, que todo esto
se queda en mí y tú estás tan
libre y exenta, que para lo que
aprovecharán mis agravios será
para que te rías dellos con
aquella libertad que has
mostrado, teniéndome á mí en
una prisión y cautiverio perpetuo;
lo que siento que me puede
quedar de lo passado es la
contemplación de una tristeza
dulce, trayendo á mi memoria
aquellas palabras de «tiempo
bueno, que dicen, fue tiempo y
horas ufanas, en que mis días
gozaron, aunque en ellas se
sembraron las simientes de mis
canas; yo me vi ser bien amado,
mi deseo en alta cima contemplar
en lo passado; la memoria me
lastima»; el tiempo, Belisia mía,
me da bien el pago de no haber
sabido gozarlo, y con verme cual
me veo lo tengo por mejor que
haber passado un punto de lo que
por tu voluntad mostrabas y
querías; cuando quiero quexarme
de mí mesmo, la razón riñe
conmigo, diciendo que no me
quexe del buen comedimiento
que tuve, pues que consigo tiene
el galardón y contigo queda la
culpa de la ingratitud y
desconocimiento de lo mucho que
me debes. Si el tiempo fuera más
largo no me maravillara tanto de
ver esta mudanza, aunque
ninguna cosa había de bastar
para hacerla; pero siendo tan
breve, paréceme que aquel amor
que me mostraste, aquel
sentimiento que vi para verme á
mí siempre sin libertad ninguna,
aquella fe que estonces se me
puso delante tan verdadera,
aquellas lágrimas con que parecía
sellarse la affición y voluntad que
se mostraba, que todo estaba
colgado de un hilo tan delgado
que sólo el viento bastó para
quebrarlo. Cuando me acuerdo de
algunas cosas que por mí
pasaron, paréceme imposible lo
que veo, por que no eran prendas
de tan poca fuerza que tan presto
habían de olvidarse, y assí ando
con el juicio desatinado,
buscando cuál podría ser la
causa; porque en mí no ha habido
falta sino de los servicios, y ésta
no creo que bastaría, pues no
sufre pensarse que tú me habrías
de tener amor ni affición por solo
interese; por otra parte, combate
una sospecha celosa, á la cual no
quiero dar crédito, porque
siempre cuanto á esto has estado
bien acreditada para conmigo.
Bien sé que te irás enojada con
carta tan larga, pues se leerá ya
sin gusto habiéndolo perdido de
todas las cosas que tocan á quien
la escribe, y si soy porfiado,
suplícote, señora mía, me
perdones, que lo hago con
determinación de no enojarte más
con otras, porque en esto quiero
que conozcas el deservicio que
será, teniendo en menos mi fatiga
y tormento que no darte á ti
pesadumbre con serte más
importuno; viviré los pocos días y
tristes que tuviere con aquella fe
que de mí se ha conocido y con la
voluntad y affición que siempre he
mostrado, y con el dolor y trabajo
que por galardón de todo esto has
querido darme, con el cual quedo,
y con aquel verdadero deseo de
servirte, que no se acabará en
tanto que no se acabare la vida
que tú has querido que tan
miserablemente muera en el
tiempo que viviere».
Y inviada esta carta, supe que
había venido á sus manos y no
con pequeña diligencia, que para
ello se puso, porque yo con gran
difficultad quería oir ni ver cosa
que á mí me tocasse, y viendo
que no quería responder, aunque
por otra cosa no esperé algunos
días, me vine harto desconsolado
y affligido, pero todavía con
alguna esperanza, que del todo
no me había desamparado,
porque pensaba que por ventura
Belisia lo hacía por probarme, ó
que le habían dicho de mí alguna
cosa que, sabiendo después no
ser verdadera, le haría
arrepentirse de la aspereza y
inhumanidad con que me trataba.
Y pasados algunos días, no sé si
por estorbar que yo no le diese
más importunidad con palabras ni
cartas, ó si por ventura holgó de
desesperarme del todo, me
escribió una carta breve, que más
verdaderamente se pudiera decir
sentencia de mi muerte, la cual
decía desta manera:
A la Muerte.
¡Oh, Muerte, dichosa para mí si,
oyendo mis llantos, mis sospiros y
gemidos dolorosos, quisieses
socorrerme, para hacer dichoso
con tu acelerada venida al más
desdichado y sin ventura pastor
de todos los pastores! Tú que
sola eres socorro de los afflegidos
cuerpos, tú que sueles consolar á
los que más han menester tu
consuelo, y tú que das alivio á los
que con necesidad te lo piden,
ayúdame, socórreme, no me
niegues tu favor en tiempo que la
muerte que me darías sería más
verdadera vida que la que agora,
muriendo con ella, sostiene este
miserable cuerpo cercado de
tantas angustias y tribulaciones;
usa agora conmigo de aquella
piedad que sueles tener de los
que con necesidad te llaman;
respóndeme, pues que te llamo;
recíbeme en tu compañía, pues
que te busco; no me niegues lo
que te pido, ni dexes de executar
en mí tu officio, pues yo tan de
veras lo quiero y lo desseo; no
seas contra mí tan cruel como la
Fortuna lo ha sido, porque la
herida de la flecha de tu arco
poderoso no me dará dolor, ni yo
huiré mi cuerpo para recibirla,
antes con muy gran
contentamiento estaré
esperándola, conosciendo el bien
que con ella rescibo. Más
agradable me será la sepoltura
que me dieres que los verdes
campos y prados y las deleitosas
florestas en que la Fortuna tan
contra mi voluntad me trae; tú
sola serás mi descanso y mi
reposo, y contigo fenecerán todas
mis penas, mis ansias y mis
trabajos. ¿Para qué tardas tanto?
¿cómo no vienes? ¿cómo no me
socorres? ¡También me quexaré
de ti! ¡También publicaré que me
haces agravio! Mira que es
crueldad la que conmigo usas, y
tanto será mayor cuanto más te
detuvieres en hacer lo que te
ruego, que ya el cuerpo querría
verse sin la compañía de mi alma
y el alma anda huyendo de la de
mi cuerpo y no espera sino tu
voluntad y tu mandamiento. No
dilates más tu venida, para quien
con tanto desseo y con tan gran
agonía la está esperando para
alivio de sus rabiosos tormentos y
passiones.
Al Tiempo.
Y tú, Tiempo, que con tu ligero
movimiento se hacen y deshacen
todas las cosas, poniendo las alas
que en ti tienen principio, ¿por
qué me haces agravio en no
poner fin á la terrible pasión y á
las rabiosas cuitas que contigo
me cercaron? ¿por qué te
muestras tan largo con ellas?
Abrevia tu veloz corrida, haciendo
conmigo la mudanza que sueles,
pues el más verdadero officio que
tienes es no dexar cosa ninguna
estar mucho tiempo en un ser, y
assí como para mi mal tan presto
te mudaste, haciéndote de bueno
malo, de alegre triste, de dichoso
desaventurado, podrías si
quisieses convertir al contrario tus
obras, para que yo no pudiese
con tanta razón mostrar el agravio
que de ti tengo por el daño que de
ti rescibo, siendo el mayor de
todos cuantos hacerme pudieras.
¡Oh, Tiempo, que un tiempo para
mí fuiste dulce, alegre, sereno y
claro, el más apacible y lleno de
deleites de cuantos tiempos por
mí, no por otro ninguno, han
passado! ¿por qué te has tornado
tan presto triste y amargo y tan
escuro que mis ojos no pueden
ver ni mirar si no son tinieblas
más escuras y espantables que
las de la mesma muerte? ¡Oh,
tiempo bueno, que por mí como
sombra pasaste, no dexando más
de la memoria para mayor
tribulación del que en ti piensa
continuamente! ¿cómo te trocaste
en malo y tan malo que ninguno
para este desventurado pastor á
quien has dexado tan sin
esperanza puede haber en el
mundo que peor sea?
A Belisia.
Y tú, vida de la vida que conmigo
contra mi voluntad vive, ¿qué
razón podrás dar de ti que pueda
excusarte de la más ingrata,
inhumana, cruel y despiadada
pastora de todas las nacidas?
Mira que el amor verdadero con
otro amor se paga, y tú con un
extraño y fiero desamor quieres
que yo quede pagado de lo
mucho que te quise y quiero, y de
lo que he padecido y padezco por
tu causa. ¿Es este el galardón de
mi rabiosa pena, la lástima que
mostrabas de mis angustias, la
affición con que mostrabas dolerte
mis lágrimas? ¡Oh, Belisia,
Belisia! escucha mis versos y
entiende lo que por ellos te digo,
para que tú mesma te conozcas y
sientas la razón que yo tengo
para sentir mi agravio de tu
crueldad, que por ello quiero
publicar lo que contra mí haces,
para que otros se guarden de no
caer en el pozo de desventuras
en que por tu causa estoy metido.
Escucha, Belisia, que mi voz,
triste como de cisne que con ella
solemniza su muerte, ayudada
con las cuerdas de mi rabel, que
otras veces en versos que loaban
tu beldad, gracias y hermosura se
empleaban, dirán agora lo que de
ti y tus condiciones he conocido,
las cuales has descubierto contra
un pobre pastor que, atado de
pies y de manos, y, lo que peor
es, ciega la voluntad y libertad,
flacas fuerzas halla en sí para
poderlas resistir.
