...Assignment 1: Business Combinations Cindy Yoon Professor Robert Neely ACC 401 – Advanced Accounting October 24, 2013 Abstract In this paper, I will provide an explanation for the business combination method I selected in expanding the corporation by acquiring another firm, the reason for selecting that business combination method, and how the purchase will grow the business. I will also analyze the accounting requirements for the business combination method I selected and how I determined goodwill was impaired and the financial impact of such impaired goodwill. The business combination method I selected is the acquisition method. Business combinations have implemented the newly created accounting treatment called the “acquisition method.” The major changes in the acquisition method include changes to fair value measurement, goodwill recognition, and non-controlling interests. In acquisition method, the parent company reports the net assets of the acquired company at the price that it was paid for. This price includes any cash payment, the fair market value of any shares issued, and the present value of any promises to pay cash in the future. A key point of the purchase method is that the parent consolidates the book value of all the subsidiary’s assets and liabilities and then the fair value, broken down between Net Book Value and Fair Market Value increments, of the subsidiary's assets and liabilities are added to the parent's own assets and liabilities...

...Parent’s purchase of a legal subsidiary in bankruptcy qualify as a business combination under ASC 805? Parent lost its ability to remove and replace majority of the board of directors of Poor Son as a result of the bankruptcy. This supports that Parent lost control of its wholly owned subsidiary, Poor Son. Therefore, Parent’s acquisition of the reorganized Poor Son does not meet the scope exception in ASC 805-10-15-4(c). Under ASC 805-10-20, a business combination occurs when an acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses. The given facts state that Parent will receive 100% of the new equity interests in the re-organized Poor Son. In addition, Parent will have the power to name all members of Poor Son’s new board of directors. ASC 805-10-55-2 provides the examples of transactions in which an acquirer can obtain control of an acquired business. Based on ASC 805-10-55-2(c), Parent has control of the new reorganized Poor Son because it acquired 100% of equity interests of Poor Son. In addition, Parent has the majority of voting interests of Poor Son because it has the responsibility to appoint all new board of directors of Poor Son. According to ASC 810-10-15-8, an acquirer has the power to control if the acquirer has the ownership of a majority voting interests. Based on these, Parent has control of the reorganized Poor Son. To conclude, Parent’s acquisition of Poor Son in bankruptcy qualifies as a business...
