Tree, Inc., has held a 10 percent interest in the stock of Limb Company for several years. Because of the level of ownership, this investment has been accounted for using the fair-value method.

In preparing consolidated financial statements for this business combination, how does Tree account for the previous 10 percent ownership interest?
