Explanation of Solution

Translation is a process used to express the financial results of a separate entity in such a way that it can be included in the consolidated financial statements of the parent entity when the functional currency of the separate entity is different from that of the parent. The translation adjustments resulting from the transfer of the entity's financial statements to the reporting currency shall be reported in other comprehensive income rather than in determining net income.

Explanation of Solution

Cumulative Translation Adjustment (CTA) is an introduction in the aggregate other comprehensive income section of the translated balance sheet interpreting gains and losses arising from varying exchange rates over time.

ASC 830-30-45-18 outlines issues concerning the presentation of changes to cumulative translation adjustments. It provides that an analysis of the reported CTA changes in equity over the period should be reported in any of the following ways:

•    In a separate financial statement

•    In notes to financial statements

•    As part of a statement of changes in equity

The computation of the cumulative Translation Adjustment is as follows:

BOY Net assets x EOY -BOY Exchange rates2,835,000$0.06$170,100$0.82$0.76
Net income x EOY -Avg. Exchange rates588,000$0.0317,640$0.82$0.79

The required journal entry made by the parent for the year based on the translation computation is as follows:

DateAccounting ExplanationAmount ($)Amount ($)
a.Equity Investment$187,152 
 Other comprehensive income $187,152
 (To record the translation adjustment for the year)  

The parent will also accrue the translation or loss for the year relating to the AAP assets as follows:

*BOY Balance450,0000.76  342,000 
Amortization(50,000)$0.79  (39,500)

AAP translation gain (loss)     25,500 

Based on the AAP calculation of an AAP asset related to a patent, the Parent makes the following journal entry (to recognize the AAP translation gain for the year) as follows:

Equity income of $219,780 is equal to the subsidiary's net income ($226,380), less the

amortization of the AAP asset ($39,500).

Explanation of Solution

Consolidated financial statements are a group of entities financial statements that are presented as those of a single economic entity. They are the financial statements of a group in which the parent company and its subsidiaries introduce their assets, liabilities, equity, revenue, expenses and cash flows as those of a single business organization.

A consolidated balance sheet provides a parent company's assets and liabilities and all of its subsidiaries in a legal document, without any differentiation on which items pertain to which companies. A party outside the economic unit embodied in the consolidated financial statements does not retain the equity of the shareholders of the subsidiary, and therefore should not be included in the consolidated shareholders' equities.

Consolidation worksheet is an instrument used to prepare a parent's consolidated financial statements and their subsidiaries. It demonstrates the individual book values of companies, the adjustments and eliminations necessary, and the consolidated final values.

The consolidated spreadsheet is shown below:
