USCPA 過去問 Consolidation

メモ用

 

Consolidation のルールは、A社がB社に対してCommon stock の持ち株が

0~20% Dividend

20%~50% 持分法適用 Equity Method

50%~ Consolidation Ownership control

下の問題での、3つのシーンがそれぞれ上のルールのどこに当てはまるのか考えましょう。

Information pertaining to dividends from Wray Corp.'s common stock investments for the current year ended December 31 follows:
・On September 8, Wray received a $50,000 cash dividend from Seco, Inc., in which Wray owns a 30% interest. A majority of Wray's directors are also directors of Seco.
ー>30% Interest は、Equity Method になるので、Dividend対象外
・On October 15, Wray received a $6,000 liquidating dividend from King Co. Wray owns a 5% interest in King Co.
ー>Liquidating Dividend は、Investment 勘定を下げる働きをする。
・Wray owns a 2% interest in Bow Corp., which declared a $200,000 cash dividend on November 27, to stockholders of record on December 15, payable on January 5 of next year. 
ー>2%なので、Dividend 対象となる。これだけ計算しましょう

What amount should Wray report as dividend income in its income statement for the current year ended December 31?

  • $60,000
  • $56,000
  • $10,000
  • $ 4,000

20000発行されたDividendのう、持ち株は2%なので、20000x0.02=4000

 

 

 Common Stock では、上記の0~20~50%~Equity Method ルールが適用されます。

Preferred Stock では、持ち株比率に関係なく、Cost Method を適用するため、Dividend income を常に認識します。

 

Anchor Co. owns 40% of Main Co.'s common stock outstanding and 75% of Main's noncumulative preferred stock outstanding. Anchor exercises significant influence over Main's operations. During the current period, Main declared dividends of $200,000 on its common stock and $100,000 on its noncumulative preferred stock. What amount of dividend income should Anchor report on its income statement for the current period related to its investment in Main?
  • $ 75,000
  • $ 80,000
  • $120,000
  • $225,000

 

Common stock は Equity Method 40%なので、Dividend income は認識しません。

Preferred stock は対象となる。100000 x 0.75 = 75000

 

 

T勘定を使う問題。

投資勘定の期首簿価を与えられてて、途中の取引を経て、期末の投資残高を求める問題。

--------------------------------------------------------------

+期首簿価 200000   | 

+Net income (持ち株分)  | -Dividend received 

 (600000x25%)=150000   |  (400000x25%)=100000

 ↓、読むのが非常に面倒くさい問題。

本質を理解していれば、さっと解けるんですが、そこまでの経験値はまだない!!!

Grant, Inc. acquired 30% of South Co.'s voting stock for $200,000 on January 2, year 3. Grant's 30% interest in South gave Grant the ability to exercise significant influence over South's operating and financial policies. During year 3, South earned $80,000 and paid dividends of $50,000. South reported earnings of 100,000 for the six months ended June 30, year 4, and $200,000 for the year ended December 31, year 4. On July 1, year 4, Grant sold half of its stock in South for $150,000 cash. South paid dividends of $60,000 on October 1, year 4.

① Before income taxes, what amount should Grant include in its year 3 income statement as a result of the investment?

  • $15,000
  • $24,000
  • $50,000
  • $80,000

 

問題で聞かれていたのは、yr3のIncome statementのみだったんで、

拾う情報も、下線部のみ。

 

投資先が、80000儲かった。ので、投資元に入るお金は持ち株分30%

80000x0.3 = 24000 

Paid Dividends 分の50000は、ちゃらになるから、Investment 勘定を下げます!!!

 

② In Grant's December 31, year 3 balance sheet, what should be the carrying amount of this investment?

Investment の期末残高の出し方は、先ほどと同じ、T勘定で。

 

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

+期首investment 200000     |

+年間Income x 持株分30%  |   ー配当x持株分30% 50000 x 0.3=15000

(80000x0.3=24000)              |

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

Net:209000 

 

③ In its year 4 income statement, what amount should Grant report as gain from the sale of half of its investment?

4年目に、stock の半分を150000で売却したときの売却益を聞かれてます。

半分のStock の簿価がいくらかだして、それと売却価格の差額を求めればいいですね。

4年目の簿価も、上同様にT勘定で出す。

 

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

期首簿価 209000                 |

+年間Income                         |   - Dividend 無

100000 x 30% = 30000          |

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net:239000 4年目の簿価。この内半分を売ったので、

239000/2 = 119500 (簿価)

これを、150000 で売りましたので、利益は差額の30500
