3.2: Subsidiaries
An Introduction to Consolidated Financial Statements
What is a Subsidiary?
– A corporation becomes a subsidiary when
another corporation acquires controlling interest
in its outstanding voting stock.
– In a 100 percent acquisition, the investee
continues to operate as a separate legal entity.
– Subsidiaries, or affiliates, continue as separate
legal entities and prepare their own financial
reports.

BV ≠ FV ≠ Cost
Difference between the book value of net assets (BV)
and the fair value of identifiable net assets (FV) is
assigned to the specific assets or liabilities.
– E.g., undervalued or overvalued inventories,
plant assets
– Unrecorded assets (patents) or liabilities
(existing contingencies)
Difference between FV and Cost is goodwill or a gain
on the bargain purchase.
