entities.,1-,Mergers:A+B=A,Company A purchases the assets of Company B,for cash,other assets,or Company A debt/equity securities,.Company B is dissolved;Company A survives with Company Bs assets and

survives with the assets and liabilities of both firms.,1-,Keeping the terms straight,In the general business sense,mergers and consolidations are business combinations and may or may not involve the dissolution of the acquired firm(s).,In Chapter 1,mergers and consolidations will involve only 100%acquisitions with the dissolution of the acquired firm(s).,These assumptions will be relaxed in later chapters.,“Consolidation”is also an accounting term used to describe the process of preparing consolidated financial statements for a parent and its subsidiaries.,1-,3:Accounting for Business Combinations,Business Combinations,1-,Business Combination,(def.),“,A business combination is a transaction or other event in which an acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses.Transactions

combinations occurring in fiscal periods beginning after December 15,2008,FASB Statement No.141R,1-,International Accounting,Most major economies prohibit the use of the pooling method.,The International Accounting Standards Board specifically prohibits the pooling method and requires the acquisition method.,IFRS 3,1-,Recording Guidelines,(1 of 2),Record assets acquired and liabilities assumed using the fair value principle.,If equity securities are issued by the acquirer,charge registration and issue costs against the fair value of the securities issued,usually a reduction in additional paid-in-capital.,Charge other direct combination costs,(e.g.,legal fees,finders fees),and indirect combination costs,(e.g.,management salaries),to expense.,1-,Recording Guidelines,(2 of 2),When the acquiring firm transfers its assets other than cash as part of the combination,any gain or loss on the disposal of those assets is recorded in current income.,The excess of cash,other assets and equity securities transferred over the fair value of the net assets (A L)acquired is recorded as goodwill.,If the net assets acquired exceeds the cash,other assets and equity securities transferred,a gain on the bargain purchase is recorded in current income.,1-,Example:Poppy Corp.,(1 of 3),Investment in Sunny Corp.,1,600,Common stock,$10 par,1,000,Additional

prices,1-,Recording Contingent Consideration,Contingencies based on future earnings increase the cost of the investment.,Contingencies based on future security prices do not change the cost of the
