Question
Why Corporations Invest
SO 1 Discuss why corporations invest in debt and share securities.

7
Accounting for Debt Instruments
SO 2 Explain the accounting for debt investments.
Recording Acquisition of Bonds
Cost includes all expenditures necessary to acquire
these investments, such as the price paid plus brokerage
fees (commissions), if any.
Recording Bond Interest
Calculate and record interest revenue based upon the
carrying value of the bond times the interest rate times the
portion of the year the bond is outstanding.

8
Sale of Bonds
Credit the investment account for the cost of the bonds
and record as a gain or loss any difference between the
net proceeds from the sale (sales price less brokerage
fees) and the cost of the bonds.

9
Illustration: Kuhl Corporation acquires 50 Doan Inc. 8%,
10-year, $1,000 bonds on January 1, 2011, for $54,000,
including brokerage fees of $1,000. The entry to record the
investment is:
Debt investments 54,000
Cash 54,000
Jan. 1

10
Illustration: Kuhl Corporation acquires 50 Doan Inc. 8%,
10-year, $1,000 bonds on January 1, 2011, for $54,000,
including brokerage fees of $1,000. The bonds pay interest
semiannually on July 1 and January 1. The entry for the
receipt of interest on July 1 is:
Cash 2,000
Interest revenue 2,000
* ($50,000 x 8% x ½ = $2,000)
*
July 1

11
Illustration: If Kuhl Corporation’s fiscal year ends on
December 31, prepare the entry to accrue interest since
July 1.
SO 2
Interest receivable 2,000
Interest revenue 2,000
Kuhl reports receipt of the interest on January 1 as follows.
Cash 2,000
Interest receivable 2,000
Dec. 31

12
Illustration: Assume that Kuhl corporation receives net
proceeds of $58,000 on the sale of the Doan Inc. bonds on
January 1, 2011, after receiving the interest due. Prepare
the entry to record the sale of the bonds.
Cash 58,000
Debt investments 54,000
Gain on sale of debt investments 4,000

Recording Sale of Bonds

13
An event related to an investment in debt securities that
does not require a journal entry is:
a. acquisition of the debt investment.
b. receipt of interest revenue from the debt
investment.
c. a change in the name of the firm issuing the debt
securities.
d. sale of the debt investment.
Question

14

Accounting for Share Investments
SO 3 Explain the accounting for share investments.
The accounting depends on the extent of the investor’s influence over
the operating and financial affairs of the issuing corporation.

16
Companies record
 the investment at cost, and
 recognize revenue only when cash dividends are
received.
Holdings of Less than 20% (Cost Method)
Cost includes all expenditures necessary to acquire these investments,
such as the price paid plus any brokerage fees (commissions).

17
July 1
Holdings of Less than 20%
Illustration: On July 1, 2011, Sanchez Corporation
acquires 1,000 ordinary shares (10% ownership) of Beal
Corporation. Sanchez pays $40 per share plus brokerage
fees of $500. The entry for the purchase is:
Share investments 40,500
Cash 40,500

18
Dec. 31
Illustration: During the time Sanchez owns the shares, it
makes entries for any cash dividends received. If Sanchez
receives a $2 per share dividend on December 31, the
entry is:
Cash 2,000
Dividend revenue 2,000

19
Feb. 10
Illustration: Assume that Sanchez Corporation receives
net proceeds of $39,500 on the sale of its Beal shares on
February 10, 2012. Because the shares cost $40,500,
Sanchez incurred a loss of $1,000. The entry to record the
sale is:
Cash 39,500
Loss on sale of share 1,000

20
Holdings Between 20% and 50% (Equity Method)
Record the investment at cost and subsequently adjust
the amount each period for
 the investor’s proportionate share of the earnings
(losses) and
 dividends received by the investor.
If investor’s share of investee’s losses exceeds the carrying amount of
the investment, the investor ordinarily should discontinue applying the
equity method.

21
Under the equity method, the investor records
dividends received by crediting:
a. Dividend Revenue.
b. Investment Income.
c. Revenue from Investment.
d. Share Investments.
Question
Holdings Between 20% and 50%

22
Illustration: Milar Corporation acquires 30% of the ordinary
shares of Beck Company for $120,000 on January 1, 2011. For
2011, Beck reports net income of $100,000 and paid dividends of
$40,000. Prepare the entries for these transactions.

$40,000. Prepare the entries for these transactions.

24
Controlling Interest - When one corporation acquires a voting
interest of more than 50 percent in another corporation
 Investor is referred to as the parent.
 Investee is referred to as the subsidiary.
 Investment in the subsidiary is reported on the parent’s books as
a long-term investment.
 Parent generally prepares consolidated financial statements.
SO 4 Describe the use of consolidated financial statements.

Valuing and Reporting Investments
Categories of Securities
Companies classify debt and share investments into
three categories:
 Fair value through profit or loss (FVPL) securities
 Available-for-sale (AFS) securities
 Held-to-maturity securities
These guidelines apply to all debt securities and all share investments
in which the holdings are less than 20%.
SO 5 Indicate how debt and share investments are
reported in financial statements.

28
Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVPL)
Companies hold securities with the intention of selling
them in a short period (< month).
Frequent buying and selling.
Companies report securities at fair value, and report
changes from cost as part of net income.
Changes are reported as unrealized gains or losses.

29
Illustration: Investment of Pace classified as fair value through
profit or loss securities on December 31, 2011.
Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVPL)
The adjusting entry for Pace Corporation is:
Dec. 31 Market adjustment—FVPL 7,000
Unrealized gain—income 7,000
Illustration 12-7

30
Answer on notes page

31
Available-for-Sale (AFS) Securities
Held with the intent of selling these investments
sometime in the future.
Classified as current assets or as non-current assets,
depending on the intent of management.
Report securities at fair value
Report changes from cost as a component of the equity

32
Marketable securities bought and held primarily for sale
in the near term are classified as:
a. Available-for-sale securities.
b. Held-to-maturity securities.
c. Share securities.
d. Fair value through profit or loss
Question

33
Problem: How would the entries for fair value through
profit or loss securities change if the securities were
classified as available-for-sale?
The entries would be the same except that the
Unrealized Gain or Loss—Equity account is used instead of
Unrealized Gain or Loss—Income.
The unrealized loss would be deducted from equity rather
than charged to income.
Available-for-Sale Securities

34
Illustration: Assume that Ingrao Corporation has two securities
that it classifies as available-for-sale.
The adjusting entry for Ingrao Corporation is:
Dec. 31 Unrealized gain or loss—equity 9,537
Market adjustment—AFS 9,537
Illustration 12-8

35
An unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities is:
a. reported under other revenue and expenses in the
income statement.
b. closed-out at the end of the accounting period.
c. reported as a separate component of equity.
d. deducted from the cost of the investment.
Question

36
Securities held by a company that are
(1) readily marketable and
(2) intended to be converted into cash within the next year
or operating cycle, whichever is longer.
Short-Term Investments
SO 6 Distinguish between short-term and long-term investments.
Investments that do not meet both criteria are classified as
long-term investments.

Identify where each of the following items would be
reported in the financial statements.
Answers on
notes page
Use the following possible categories:
Intangible assets Equity
Property, plant, and equipment Non-current liabilities
Investments Current liabilities
Current assets
Other income and expenses

42
Both IFRS and GAAP use the same criteria to determine
whether the equity method of accounting should be used—that
is, significant influence with a general guide of over 20%
ownership. GAAP uses the term equity investment whereas
IFRS uses the term associate investment to describe
investments under the equity method.
Under IFRS, both the investor and an associate company
should follow the same accounting policies. As a result, in
order to prepare financial information, adjustments are made to
the associate’s policies to conform to the investor’s books.
GAAP does not have that requirement.
Understanding U.S. GAAP
Key Differences Investments

43
The basis for consolidation under IFRS is control. Under GAAP,
a bipolar approach is used, which is a risk-and reward model
(often referred to as a variable-entity approach) and a voting
interest approach. However, under both systems, for
consolidation to occur, the investor company must generally
own 50% of another company.
IFRS specifies the following four types of financial assets:
1. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
2. Held-to-maturity investments.
3. Loans and receivables.
4. Available-for-sale financial assets.
The loans and receivables category does not exist under GAAP.

44
The category of financial asset at fair value through profit or
loss is similar to the trading securities discussed in GAAP. As
noted in the chapter, this category also includes investments
that the company has decided to report at fair value. GAAP also
gives the company the option to report investments at fair value.
Unrealized gains and losses related to available-for-sale
securities are reported in other comprehensive income under
GAAP and IFRS. These gains and losses that accumulate are
then reported in the equity section. Under IFRS, they are
frequently reported in a line item labeled “Reserves” whereas
under GAAP, they are reported in accumulated other
comprehensive income.

45
Looking to the Future
As indicated earlier, both the FASB and IASB have indicated that
they believe that all financial instruments should be reported at fair
value and that changes in fair value should be reported as part of
net income. It seems likely, as more companies choose the fair
value option for financial instruments, that we will eventually arrive
at fair value measurement for all financial instruments.

Consolidated Statement of
Financial Position
Preparing Consolidated Financial Statements
 Companies prepare consolidated statements of
financial position from the individual statements of their
affiliated companies.
 Transactions between the affiliated companies are
eliminated.
Appendix

47
Illustration: Assume that on January 1, 2011, Powers
Construction Company pays $150,000 in cash for 100% of
Serto Brick Company’s ordinary shares. Powers Company
records the investment at cost, as required by the cost
principle.
The combined totals do not represent a consolidated
statement of financial position, because there has been a
double counting of assets and equity in the amount of
$150,000.

SO 7 Describe the content of a worksheet for a
consolidated statement of financial position.
Illustration: Assume the same data used above, except
that Powers Company pays $165,000 in cash for 100% of
Serto’s ordinary shares. The excess of cost over book
value is $15,000 ($165,000 - $150,000).

51
Illustration 12A-3
SO 7
Use of a Worksheet—Cost Above Book Value

52
SO 8 Explain the form and content of consolidated financial statements.
Illustration: The prior worksheet shows an excess of cost
over book value of $15,000. In the consolidated statement
of financial position, Powers first allocates this amount to
specific assets, such as inventory and plant equipment, if
their fair market values on the acquisition date exceed their
book values. Any remainder is considered to be goodwill.
For Serto Company, assume that the fair market value of
property and equipment is $155,000.Thus, Powers
allocates $10,000 of the excess of cost over book value to
property and equipment, and the remainder, $5,000, to
goodwill.

Consolidated Income Statement
 Statement shows the results of operations of affiliated
companies as though they are one economic unit.
 All intercompany revenue and expense transactions
must be eliminated.
 A worksheet facilitates the preparation of consolidated
income statements in the same manner as it does for
the statement of financial position.
