BuyCo, Inc., holds 29 percent of the outstanding shares of Marqueen Company and appropriately applies the equity method of accounting. Excess cost amortization (related to a patent) associated with this investment amounts to $10,200 per year. For 2020, Marqueen reported earnings of $110,000 and declares cash dividends of $30,000. During that year, Marqueen acquired inventory for $56,000, which it then sold to BuyCo for $70,000. At the end of 2020, BuyCo continued to hold merchandise with a transfer price of $38,000.
a.
What Equity in Investee Income should BuyCo report for 2020?
b.
How will the intra-entity transfer affect BuyCo’s reporting in 2021?
c.
If BuyCo had sold the inventory to Marqueen, would the answers to (a) and (b) have changed?
(For all requirements, do not round intermediate calculations.)
a.
Equity in investee income
19,496
b.
Equity accrual for 2021 will be
Increased
by
2,204
c.
If BuyCo had sold the inventory to Marqueen, would your answers above change?
NO
Explanation
a.
Equity in investee income:
Equity income accrual ($110,000 × 29%)
$ 31,900
Less: deferral of intra-entity gross profit (below)
(2,204)
Less: patent amortization (given)
(10,200)
Equity in investee income
$ 19,496
Deferral of intra-entity gross profit:
Remaining inventory—end of year
$ 38,000
Gross profit percentage (GP $14,000 ÷ Sales $70,000)
× 20%
Profit within remaining inventory
$
7,600
Ownership percentage
× 29%
Intra-entity gross profit deferral
$
2,204
b.
In 2021, the deferral of $2,204 can be recognized by BuyCo’s use or sale of this inventory. Thus, the
equity accrual for 2021 will be increased by $2,204 in that year. Recognition of this amount is simply being delayed from 2020 until 2021, the year when the goods are sold to customers outside the affiliated entity.
c.
The direction (upstream versus downstream) of the intra-entity transfer does not affect the above answers. A controlling interest calls for a 100% gross profit deferral for downstream intra-entity transfers. In the presence of only signification influence, however, equity method accounting is identical regardless of whether an intra-entity transfer is upstream or downstream.
