A simple example such as that below could be used to illustrate these points:
A Ltd has acquired all the issued shares of B Ltd. The balance sheets of both companies
immediately after acquisition are as follows:
Share capital
Reserves
Shares in B Ltd
Cash
$200
100
300
150
150
300
Share capital
Reserves
Cash
$100
50
150
-150
150
The balance of the Shares in B Ltd account can be changed to introduce goodwill/ gain
on bargain purchase amounts.
6. At the date the parent acquires a controlling interest in a subsidiary, if the carrying
amounts of the subsidiarys assets are not equal to fair value, explain why
adjustments to these assets are required in the preparation of the consolidated
financial statements.
AASB 3, paragraph 18, requires that identifiable assets and liabilities of the subsidiary be
shown at fair value. The standard-setters believe that the fair value of the assets and
liabilities provides the most relevant information to users.
Even though the standard refers to an allocation of the cost of a business combination, the
standard does not require the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired to be recorded at
cost.
The only asset acquired that is not measured at fair value is goodwill.
The fair value approach is emphasised by the required accounting for any bargain
purchase on combination. It is not accounted for as a reduction in the fair values of the
identifiable assets and liabilities acquired such that these items are recorded at cost.
Instead, the fair values are unchanged and the excess is recognised as a gain.
