Expert Solution

Parent Company hold 80 % of Subsidary Company.

Date of acquisition 01/01/2014

Excess paid $175,000 which has been adjusted by assigned unrecorded patent by subsidary.

Internal transaction :  Inventory from subsidary to parent to outside customer

Profit on unsold inventory 2015 : $19,137

2016 : $29,441

Total Income of subsidary for 2016 = $216,930

The adjustment required in 2016 is as below:

DEBIT Sales $29,441

CREDIT Inventory $ 29,441

With this the unrealised profit will be eliminated from the Net income as well as the carrying amount of inventory at the 2016 financial statement.

Net recognized income of subsidary : 216,930 - 29,441+19,137 =206,626

Share of parent Company : 80% of 227,234 = 165,300.80

It is Upstream intra entity sales

If it is changed to down stream mean from parent to subsidary then profit calculation will be same but no need to apply %holding beacause it is in hand of controling entity (i.e Parent company ).

Profit of the parent company will reduce by whole profit on ending unsold inventory lying with subsidary.
