This memorandum is with reference to purchase of majority shares of Soletta Ltd. and few issues, which might be faced on the decision to purchase the majority shares on discussion with the executive team of Soletta Ltd.
- What is the purpose of preparing consolidated financial statements?
The purpose of consolidated financial statement is to present to the various stakeholders of the company, the results of the operations and the financial position of the group consisting of the parent and its subsidiaries as if they were a single entity. (Principles of consolidation)
- What is a group, a parent and a subsidiary?
A group is a composite of parent and subsidiaries corporations that functions as a single economic entity having common control.
A Parent company is a company which controls another entity.
A subsidiary corporation or a daughter corporation is a company that is owned or controlled by another company referred to as parent company. (Corporate Finance Institute)
- How many parents can a group have? Justify your answer.
A group can have multiple parent companies like for example there can be a parent company which holds first tier subsidiaries directly and then an ultimate parent company which controls second and lower tiers of subsidiaries indirectly through first tier subsidiaries.
- Why is it necessary to make adjustments for intra group transactions?
Adjustments are made for intra group transactions as these are internal to the group and do not reflect transactions with external parties. (Course Hero, 2018) This is also in line with the entity concept of consolidation, which says transactions within the group must be adjusted as within the same economic entity.
Intra group transaction does not reflect an economic activity for earning some gain but is like transaction with oneself considering group as a single entity.
- When are profits realised in relation to inventories transfers within the group?
Profits realized in relation to inventories are transferred within the group when the inventory is on-sold to an external entity not forming part of the group.
