Expert Solution
Step 1

Assets, liabilities, and other financial components of two or more entities are combined into one entity during consolidation (consolidation). The term "consolidate" is frequently used in the context of financial accounting to describe a process whereby all subsidiaries of a corporation report their financial results as a single entity under the control of the parent company. Through mergers and acquisitions, smaller businesses are combined to form larger businesses, a process known as consolidation.
