Despite the previous entry, ending inventory is still overstated
by the amount of gain on the inventory that is still unsold at
year end.
We must eliminate the unrealized gain as follows:

Peerless Products acquires 80 percent of the common stock of Special


Foods on December 31, 20X0, for its book value of $240,000. The fair
value of noncontrolling interest on that date is equal to its book value
of $60,000. On March 1, 20X1, Peerless buys inventory for $7,000 and
resells it to Special Foods for $10,000 on April 1.

This entry does not affect consolidated net income


No elimination of intercompany profit is needed because all the intercompany
profit has been realized through resale of the inventory to the external party
during the current period

Resale in period following intercorporate transfer

Using the basic equity method, Peerless records its share of Special Foods
income and dividends for 20X1 in the normal manner:

As a result of these entries, the ending


balance of the investment account is
$256,000 ($240,000 + $40,000 - $24,000).

During 20X2, Special Foods receives $15,000 when it sells to


Nonaffiliated Corporation the inventory that it had purchased for
$10,000 from Peerless in 20X1. Also, Peerless records its pro rata
portion of Special Foods net income and dividends for 20X2 with the
normal basic equity-method entries:

The consolidation workpaper prepared at the end of 20X2 is shown in


Figure 72 in the text. Four elimination entries are needed:

consolidated balance and to reduce beginning retained earnings.

Inventory held two or more periods
Prior

to liquidation, an eliminating entry is


needed in the consolidation workpaper each
time consolidated statements are prepared to
restate the inventory to its cost to the
consolidated entity

For example, if Special Foods continues to hold the inventory purchased the
following eliminating entry is needed in the consolidation workpaper each
time a consolidated balance sheet is prepared for years following the year of
intercompany sale, for as long as the inventory is held:

Upstream Sale of Inventory

When an upstream sale of inventory occurs and the


inventory is resold by the parent to a nonaffiliate during the
same period, all the parents equity-method entries and the
eliminating entries in the consolidation workpaper are
identical to those in the downstream case

Upstream Sale of Inventory

When the inventory is not resold to a nonaffiliate before the


end of the period, workpaper eliminating entries are
different from the downstream case only by the
apportionment of the unrealized intercompany profit to
both the controlling and noncontrolling interests
