In preparing the consolidation worksheet for Pencil Corporation and its 60 percent–owned subsidiary, Stylus Company, the following consolidation entries were proposed by Pencil's bookkeeper:

Worksheet Entries Debit Credit
Cash 100,000
Accounts Payable 100,000
To eliminate the unpaid balance for intercorporate inventory sales in 20X5.
Cost of Goods Sold 16,800
Income from Stylus Company 16,800
To eliminate unrealized inventory profits at December 31, 20X5.
Income from Stylus Company 196,000
Sales 196,000
To eliminate intercompany sales for 20X5.


Pencil's bookkeeper recently graduated from Oddball University, and although the dollar amounts recorded are correct, he had some confusion in determining which accounts needed adjustment. All intercorporate sales in 20X5 were from Stylus to Pencil, and Stylus sells inventory at cost plus 40 percent of cost. Pencil uses the fully adjusted equity method in accounting for its ownership in Stylus.

Required:
a. What percentage of the intercompany inventory transfer was resold prior to the end of 20X5? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to nearest whole percentage.)

b. Prepare the appropriate consolidation entries needed at December 31, 20X5, to prepare consolidated financial statements. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field. Do not round intermediate calculations.)

  • Record the entry to eliminate intercompany receivable/payable.
  • Record the entry to eliminate the intercompany inventory sale.

The balance of payments consists of three accounts which together record the flow of money into and out of a country. The current account records the sale and purchase of goods and services, the capital account records the sale and purchase of financial assets, and the official settlements (OS) account records changes in government holding of foreign currencies. Anything that brings domestic currency into the country is recorded as a positive while anything that sends domestic currency out of the country is a negative. Based on this description, identify which UAE account (current, capital, or OS) each transaction would be included in and whether it would be positive or negative.

a) Etihad Airlines buys 2 new airplanes from Boeing (a US company)

b) A London businessman buys 100 shares of Etihad Airlines stock

c) The UAE government buys 100,000 Omani rial

d) A UAE housewife receives an interest payments of 250,000 AED on short-term foreign deposits in a UK bank

e) A petrol station in Iceland buys 3,000 liters of petrol from ADNOC

f) The UAE government sells 1 million US dollars

g) The UAE government lends 1 billion euros to the Greek government

Champion Incorporated is a Canadian company that manufactures steel. On January 2, 2020, Champion purchased a building for $25,000,000 that it will use for manufacturing its products. The building has a useful life of 20 years with no estimated residual value. To comply with regulatory code, the government requires Champion to clean up the property on which the building is located at the end of the building’s useful life. Champion estimates that the clean up will cost $2,200,000. Assume that the clean up costs relate entirely to the purchase of the building, not to operations over the next 20 years.

The company’s discount rate is 5%. Champion adheres to IFRS and has a December 31 year end. Champion uses the straight-line method to depreciate all its buildings.
