A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
Introduction (5 mins)
Welcome back to ACC 113.
Let’s continue our 19th day in Accounting for Business Combination by activating your prior knowledge
through answering the What I know Chart, part 1 in Activity 1. Do not worry if you answer the questions
incorrectly that only means you do not have prior knowledge of the subject.
B.MAIN LESSON
Regardless of the measurement basis, the consolidated accounts should result to the
same amounts. This is because the investment in subsidiary and the effects of its
measurement basis are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Complex Group Structures - arises when the parent obtains control over another entity indirectly through
its direct holdings over another entity; maybe described as either Vertical Group or D-shaped (mixed)
Group.

During 1991, Style paid P5,000 cash dividends to its stockholders. Summarized balance sheet information
for the two companies follows:
Dallas Style
12/31/1991 12/31/1991 1/1/1991
Investment in Style (equity method) 132,000
Other assets 138,000 115,000 100,000
Totals 270,000 115,000 100,000
1. What amount should Dallas report as earnings from subsidiary, in its 1991 income statement?
2. How much is the acquisition cost of the investment on January 1, 1991?
3. How much is the goodwill on the business combination?
4. How much is the non-controlling interest in the net assets of Style on December 31, 1991?
5. How much is the consolidated retained earnings on December 31, 1991?
6. How much is the total assets in the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31,
1991?
7. What amount of equity attributable to the owners of the parent should be reported in Dallas’ December
31, 1991 consolidated balance sheet?
The carrying amounts of the net identifiable assets of S1 and S2 approximate their fair values on January
1, 20x1. The group determined on December 31, 20x1 that goodwill has been impaired by 20%. There
have been no changes in the share capitals of S1 and S2 during the year.
A summary of the individual financial statements of the entities is shown below:

FAQs
1. When does a Vertical Group arise?
A vertical group arises where a subsidiary of the parent entity holds shares in a further entity such that
control is achieved. The parent entity therefore controls both the subsidiary entity and, in turn, its
subsidiary (often referred to as a sub-subsidiary entity).
2. When does a D-shaped (Mixed) Group arise?
In a mixed group situation the parent entity has a direct controlling interest in at least one subsidiary. In
addition, the parent entity and the subsidiary together hold a controlling interest in a further entity.

Activity 5
Ownership over S1
Direct holdings of P in S1 80%
NCI in S1 (squeeze) 20%
Total 100%
Ownership over S2
Direct holdings of P in S2 0%
Indirect holdings of P in S2 (80% x 60%)* 48%
Total holdings of P in S2 48%
NCI in S2 (squeeze) 52%
Total 100%
*The indirect holdings of P in S2 is computed by multiplying P’s interest in S1 (80%) by S1’s interest in S2
(60%).
Although the computed total holdings of P is only 48%, i.e., less than 50%, it is still presumed that there is
control because P controls S1, who in turn controls S2. In substance, it is actually P who has control over S2.
This is not unusual in practice. The computation is made only for purposes of mathematical computations
during consolidation procedures.
An indirect holding adjustment is made because the consideration transferred to S2 is not wholly made by P
but rather partly by P (80%) and partly by S1 (20%). Only the portion effectively transferred by P (₱200,000 x
80% = ₱160,000) enters into the computation of goodwill.
