The amount of control the firm has over its subsidiary will be the determining factor in deciding when to consolidate financial statements annually. If the firm acquires another company, the firm must own fifty percent or more of the subsidiary’s outstanding voting stock in order for the two to consolidate. With this ownership level, the firm will be able to persuade the subsidiary into making decisions that would not only benefit the subsidiary, but also benefit the firm (parent) as well. “When majority of voting stock is held, investor-investee relationship is so closely connected that the two corporations are viewed as a single entity for financial reporting” (Hoyle, n.d.). Thus with this control in place both companies will combine their

Both the parents and the children came to the FAP to seek services to address their defiant behavior. Interviewing the family was able to apply four concepts to my cases which were empathy, barrier, taboo and tuning in.

In the current study the most frequent FFB was the fourth IM bursa (IM4/5) (20.1%) while the most frequent SM bursa was the first (16.1%) with the least frequent one of all being the third SM bursa. The same finding was reported by Bowen CJ et al (18) and Hooper L et al (24). The SM bursae are considered mostly pathological or symptomatic so their hypertrophy might cause pain or cause activity limitation. (18) Ultrasound detectable synovial hypertrophy of the MTP joints was present in 60% of the studied patients. Similar results were detected by Bowen CJ where the US detectable MTP synovial changes were present in 67.5 % of his patients. (25)There was no statistically significant correlation between the total number of FFB and CDAI.
Initially, Deloitte (2015) states that under AASB15’s criteria, it is essential for entities to substitute their policies and control procedures for collaborative judgements. Correspondingly, Telstra’s bundled mobile contract findings based on previous practices were formulated on the classification of goods/service, however recent practices categorise it based on performance obligations. Complementary, companies such as Telstra undergo continual amendments for instance when alternating the amount of data usage or minutes utilised, judgements formed, hence guidance from AASB 15:20 distinguishes whether contract adjustments should be retrospectively (backdated) or prospectively (future) accounted for. Conversely, this may result in a logistical
