a.
Equity in investee income: | |
Equity income accrual ($100,000 × 25%) | $25,000 |
Less: Deferral of intraentity gross profit (below) | ($3,000) |
Less: Patent amortization (given) | ($10,000) |
Equity in investee income | $12,000 |
b. In 2018, the deferral of $3,000 can be recognized by BuyCo’s use or sale of this inventory. Thus, the equity accrual for 2018 will be increased by $3,000 in that year. Recognition of this amount is simply being delayed from 2017 until 2018, the year when the goods are sold to customers outside the affiliated entity.
c. The direction (upstream versus downstream) of the intraentity transfer does not affect the above answers. However asdiscussed in Chapter Five, a controlling interest calls for a 100% gross profit deferral for downstream intraentity transfers.In the presence of only significant influence, however, equity method accounting is identical regardless of whether an intra entity transfer is upstream or downstream.
