Accounting for Investment Securities
• SFAS 115.
– Departure from the traditional lower-of-cost-or-
market principle.
– Prescribes that investment securities be reported on
the balance sheet at cost or fair (market) value,
depending on the type of security and the degree of
influence or control that the investor company has
over the investee company.
– Accounting is determined by its classification.

Analyzing Investment Securities
• Two main objectives:
– To separate operating performance from investing (and
financing) performance
• Remove all gains (losses) relating to investing activities
• Separate operating and nonoperating assets when
determining RNOA
– To analyze accounting distortions from securities
• Opportunities for gains trading
• Liabilities recognized at cost
• Inconsistent definition of equity securities
• Classification based on intent
5-11
• Investment account:
– Initially recorded at acquisition cost
– Increased by % share of investee earnings
– Decreased by dividends received
• Income:
– Investor reports % share of investee company earnings
as “equity earnings” in its income statement
– Dividends are reported as a reduction of the investment
account, not as income
5-13

Consolidated Income Statement Steps
• The four consolidation entries are
1. Replace $620,000 of the investment account with the book
value of the assets acquired. If less than 100% of the
subsidiary is owned, the credit to the investment account is
equal to the percentage of the book value owned and the
remaining credit is to a liability account, minority interest.
2. Replace $150,000 of the investment account with the fair value
adjustments required to fully record Micron’s assets at fair
market value.
3. Eliminate the investment income recorded by Synergy and
replace that account with the income statement of Micron. If
less than 100% of the subsidiary is owned, the investment
income reported by the Synergy is equal to its proportionate
share, and an additional expense for the balance is reported
for the minority interest in Micron’s earnings.
4. Record the depreciation of the fair value adjustment for
Micron’s PP&E and the amortization of the trademark. Note,
there is no amortization of goodwill under current GAAP.

Consolidated Income Statement Steps
• Income statement of Synergy is combined with that of Micron.
• Depreciation / amortization of excess of purchase price over the
book value of Micron’s assets is recorded as an additional
expense in the consolidated income statement.
• Any intercompany profits on sales of inventories held by the
consolidated entity at year-end, along with any intercompany
profits on other asset transactions, are eliminated.
• Equity investment account on Synergy’s balance sheet is
replaced with the Micron assets / liabilities to which it relates.
• Consolidated assets / liabilities reflect the book value of Synergy
plus the book value of Micron, plus the remaining undepreciated
excess of purchase price over the book value of Micron assets.
• Goodwill, which was previously included in the investment
account balance, is now broken out as a separately identifiable
asset on the consolidated balance sheet.
