The individual financial statements for Gibson Company and Keller Company for the year ending December 31,...

The individual financial statements for Gibson Company and Keller Company for the year ending December 31, 2018, follow. Gibson acquired a 60 percent interest in Keller on January 1, 2017, in exchange for various considerations totaling $900,000. At the acquisition date, the fair value of the noncontrolling interest was $600,000 and Keller’s book value was $1,200,000. Keller had developed internally a customer list that was not recorded on its books but had an acquisition-date fair value of $300,000. This intangible asset is being amortized over 20 years.

Gibson sold Keller land with a book value of $55,000 on January 2, 2017, for $130,000. Keller still holds this land at the end of the current year.

Keller regularly transfers inventory to Gibson. In 2017, it shipped inventory costing $227,500 to Gibson at a price of $350,000. During 2018, intra-entity shipments totaled $400,000, although the original cost to Keller was only $240,000. In each of these years, 20 percent of the merchandise was not resold to outside parties until the period following the transfer. Gibson owes Keller $60,000 at the end of 2018.

Prepare a worksheet to consolidate the separate 2018 financial statements for Gibson and Keller.

How would the consolidation entries in requirement (a) have differed if Gibson had sold a building with a $160,000 book value (cost of $340,000) to Keller for $300,000 instead of land, as the problem reports? Assume that the building had a 10-year remaining life at the date of transfer.

Prepare a worksheet to consolidate the separate 2018 financial statements for Gibson and Keller. (Do not round intermediate calculations. For accounts where multiple consolidation entries are required, combine all debit entries into one amount and enter this amount in the debit column of the worksheet. Similarly, combine all credit entries into one amount and enter this amount in the credit column of the worksheet. Amounts in the Debit and Credit columns should be entered as positive. Negative amounts for the Noncontrolling Interest and Consolidated Totals columns should be entered with a minus sign.)

            Parent is applying the partial equity method as can be seen by the amount in the Income of Keller Company account (60 percent of the reported balance). Thus, the parent’s share of amortization of $9,000 ($300,000 divided by 20 years × 60%) must be recognized for the previous year 2017. In addition, the equity accrual recorded by the parent has been based on Keller's reported net income. As shown in Entry *G, $24,500 of that reported net income has not actually been realized as of January 1, 2018. Thus, the previous accrual must be reduced by $14,700 to mirror the parent's 60% ownership. The total of the two adjustments being made here is $23,700.

b.   If the intra-entity transfer had been a building rather than land, two adjustments to the consolidation entries would be needed. Entry *TL would be changed and relabeled as Entry *TA and an Entry ED would be added to eliminate the overstatement of depreciation expense for 2018. All other consolidation entries would be the same as shown in Part a. As a downstream transfer, entries *C and S are not affected.

      Entry *TA

            Retained Earnings, 1/1/18 (Gibson) .................         126,000

            Buildings ................................................................           40,000

                  Accumulated Depreciation ..........................                                 166,000

            To defer unrealized gain ($140,000 original amount less one year of excess depreciation at $14,000 per year) as of beginning of year. Entry also returns Buildings account to historical cost (from $300,000 to $340,000) and Accumulated Depreciation account to historical cost (original $180,000 less one year of excess depreciation at $14,000). Because the Buildings account is shown at net value in the information given in this problem, the above entry would probably be made as follows:

      Entry *TA (Alternative)

            Retained Earnings, 1/1/18 (Gibson) .................         126,000

                  Buildings (net) ................................................                                 126,000

      Entry ED

            Accumulated Depreciation ................................           14,000

                  Operating (or Depreciation) Expense .......                                   14,000

            To remove excess depreciation for current year created by transfer price. Excess depreciation for each year would be $14,000 based on allocating the $160,000 historical cost book value over 10 years ($16,000 per year) rather than the $300,000 transfer price ($30,000 per year).
