1. Slide 2-1 2 CHAPTER 2 WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARIES: POSTCREATION PERIODS

2. Slide 2-2 2 FOCUS OF CHAPTER 2 l Ways to Value the Parent’s Investment Account in POSTCREATION Periods l Cost Method vs. Equity Method Driven Consolidation Procedures n Income Statements n Statements of Retained Earnings l Parent-Company-Only (PCO) Statements n Articulation with Consolidated Statements

3. Slide 2-3 2 The Cost Method: How It Works l It is cash basis driven: n Record income at the parent level ONLY when sub declares a dividend. n Ignore sub’s earnings. n Do NOT ignore sub’s losses. n Write-down investment ONLY IF value has been impaired. n Write-downs result in a NEW cost basis.

4. Slide 2-4 2 The Cost Method: How It Works (cont.) l It is a one-way street! The investment can be written down--but NEVER written up.

5. Slide 2-5 2 The Cost Method: Pros & Cons l Pros: n Minimal G/L bookkeeping by parent. n Simple consolidation procedures. l Cons: n Overly conservative valuation. n Parent can manipulate its reported income. n PCO statements --if used internally or issued--may be of limited value.

6. Slide 2-6 2 The Cost Method: MAJOR Point of Interest lAlthough the parent CAN manipulate its OWN reported net income, it can NEVER manipulate CONSOLIDATED net income.

7. Slide 2-7 2 The Equity Method: How It Works lIt is accrual basis driven: n Record income at the parent level based on sub’s earnings and losses --an AUTOMATIC VALUATION TECHNIQUE. n Sub’s dividends reduce the parent’s investment (the parent has less invested). Sub’s P/L autopilot

8. Slide 2-8 2 The Equity Method: How It Works (cont.) l It is a two-way street! The investment can be: (1) written down AND (2) written up.

9. Slide 2-9 2 The Equity Method: Pros and Cons l Pros: n Based on economic activity --not the parent- controlled dividend policy. n Has 2 built-in checking figures. l Cons: n Entails continual bookkeeping. n Unnecessary work if PCO statements are not used internally or issued to outsiders.

10. Slide 2-10 2 The Equity Method: MAJOR Point of Interest lCompared with the cost method, the consolidation entry under the equity method has a “new kid on the block.” l A posting must be made to eliminate the subsidiary’s beginning retained earnings.

11. Slide 2-11 2 The Cost Method: Things to Remember in Consolidation l Consolidated NET INCOME does NOT equal the parent’s NET INCOME. l Consolidated RETAINED EARNINGS does NOT equal the parent’s RETAINED EARNINGS. P S Sub’s Divies CON. $54,000 + $24,000 - $4,000 = $74,000 P S CON. $103,000 + $20,000 = $123,000

12. Slide 2-12 2 The Cost Method: Things to Remember in Consolidation l NONE l NONE of the sub’s beginning or ending RETAINED EARNINGS is eliminated in consolidation. l ONLY l ONLY the parent’s DIVIDENDS are reported in the consolidated column. P S CON. $54,000 + $20,000 = $74,000 P S Sub’s Divies CON. $(51,000) + $(4,000) - $4,000 = $(51,000)

13. Slide 2-13 2 The Equity Method: Things to Remember in Consolidation l Consolidated net income EQUALS the parent’s net income. l Consolidated retained earnings EQUALS the parent’s retained earnings. P CON. $74,000 = $74,000 P CON. $123,000 = $123,000

14. Slide 2-14 2 The Equity Method: Things to Remember in Consolidation l ALL of sub’s beginning & ending RETAINED EARNINGS are eliminated in consolidation. l ONLY l ONLY the parent’s DIVIDENDS are reported in the consolidated column (also occurs under the cost method). P S Sub’s Divies CON. $(51,000) + $(4,000) - $4,000 = $(51,000) P S Sub’s R.E. CON. $123,000 + $20,000 - $20,000 = $123,000

15. Slide 2-15 2 PCO Statements: Presented in Notes to the Consolidated Statements lPCO statements are mandatory for publicly owned banks and S&Ls (SEC rules). n Can ONLY use the equity method. l Equity method results in 100% articulation between PCO statements and consolidated statements : n SAME net income amounts. n SAME retained earnings amounts. Bank of USA

16. Slide 2-16 2 PCO Statements: Presented in Notes to the Consolidated Statements l Retained Earnings Available for Dividends: n Based on the parent’s G/L amount-- NOT on the consolidated retained earnings amount. n Use of the equity method in PCO statements produces IDENTICAL retained earnings amounts. n Use of the cost method in PCO statements creates CONFUSION.

17. Slide 2-17 2 Consolidation: The Most Important Point of All on Investment Basis lThe consolidated statement amounts are identical whether the parent uses the cost method or the equity method -- this holds true for ALL 3 statements.

18. Slide 2-18 2 Total Investment Loss Situations: Equity Method Procedures l Parent Has GUARANTEED Sub’s Debt: n NO interruption occurs in the application of the equity method. n Parent can lose more than it has invested --parent is “on the hook.”

19. Slide 2-19 2 Total Investment Loss Situations: Equity Method Procedures (cont.) l Parent Has NOT GUARANTEED Sub’s Debt: n Discontinue equity method when sub’s equity reaches zero --resume ONLY WHEN sub’s equity becomes positive. n Parent can NEVER lose more than it has invested.

20. Slide 2-20 2 AROI Versus IRR: They Serve Entirely Different Purposes l Annual Return on Investment (AROI) : lTells what was actually earned on an investment EACH year. l Based on actual GAAP net income. lCan be used to calculate an average AROI covering several years. 1 2 3 AVG. 18% + 12% + 15% = 45%; 45%/3 = 15%

21. Slide 2-21 2 AROI Versus IRR: They Serve Entirely Different Purposes l Internal Rate of Return (IRR): n An assumed rate covering SEVERAL years. s Based on cash flows for those years. n CANNOT show what was actually earned in any GIVEN year. s Artificially assumes that each year’s unrecovered investment (at B-O-Y) earns the SAME rate.
