AnonymousInactive@jasbeerch–I agree. I think the FAR experience killed motivation for a lot of people and I have always used this forum to find my motivation. I don't like the quiet.

AnonymousInactive@stoleway–I'm going through Partnerships right now. I'm not good at the goodwill method either. Maybe we can work through a few problems. Do you have any full problems to go through?

klink24ParticipantDoes this make any sense:
A foreign subsidiary’s functional currency is its local currency, which has not experienced significant inflation. The weighted-average exchange rate for the current year would be the appropriate exchange rate for translating
Correct answer was: Wages expense – Yes
Sales to customers – No
This answer is correct. Per ASC Topic 830, the weighted-average exchange rate is used to translate revenues, expenses, gains, and losses from the functional currency to the reporting currency. Both wages expense and sales to customers fall under this rule and should be translated using the weighted-average exchange rate.
Shouldn't the answer had been Yes to both based on the rationale or am I missing something?

LStevens225ParticipantI am having one heck of a time with the consolidated worksheet… In college I've learned best by practice but its hard when you have only two consolidated worksheets to actually practice on. How have you all practiced on this?

NJPRUMemberi guess I just don't understand the “steps” to answer the question. Most items I have covered had me go in a specified order to find things, this just seems all over the place to me – foreign, very foreign.
When I read the question – I don't know where to start, like this one:
On March 1, Year 4, Evan Corp. issued $1 million of 10%, nonconvertible bonds at 103. They were due on February 28, Year 14. Each $1,000 bond was issued with 30 detachable stock warrants, each of which entitled the holder to purchase, for $50, one share of Evan common stock, par value $25. On March 1, Year 4, the quoted market value of Evan’s common stock was $20 per share, and the market value of each warrant was $4. What amount of the bond issue proceeds should Evan record as an increase in equity?

stolewayParticipantThis bond was issued with a detachable warrant. you need to find cash received for the BOND and the WARRANT.
1.Total cash proceeds from the Bond and Warrant = $1,000,000* 1.03 =1,030,000
2. if $1000 bond was issued with 30 detachable warrant, Total warrant = 30*1000= 30,000 detachable warrant
if the FV of the bond and the warrant is given, use the following steps
CASH ALLOCATED FOR BONDS
Total cash proceeds x FV of bond/ FV of Bond + FV of warrant
CASH ALLOCATED FOR WARRANTS
Total cash proceeds x FV of Warrant/ FV of Bond + FV of warrant
if only the FV of the warrant is given, just go ahead and use the FV the warrant as the cash received for Warrant.
The residual value goes to Bond. In this case, FV of Warrant was given which is $4.
Total cash allocated to warrant is $120,000
Cash……………..120,000dr
Paid in Capital- Warrant……………..120,000 cr (increase in equity)
Bond will be recorded as
Cash………………910,000dr
Discount………….90,000dr
Bonds………………………………………1,000,000cr
hope this helps

FutureCPAinGAMemberAdaptation of Problem from Wiley Test Bank
The following items were included in V company's Dec 31 y1 inventory:
Merchandise out on consignment, at sales price, including 40% markup on selling price: $14,000
Good purchased on transit, shipped FOB shipping point $12,000
Goods held on consignment by V company $9000
V Company's inventory on Dec 31 should be reduced by
A. 35,000
B. 25,000
C. 17,400
D. 14,600
Answer Given:
The inventory account should be reduced by two amounts. The merchandise out on consignment should be priced at cost, not retail. Inventory should be reduced by the $5,600 markup above cost ($14,000 x 40%). The goods purchased FOB shipping point are appropriately included in the inventory account as the title has transferred to V company; no adjustment is necessary. Finally, the inventory account should be reduced for the goods held on consignment by Venicio. These goods are owned by the consignor, not V company.
My issue: This seems like an error to me. Isn't the markup on selling price computed by dividing 14,000 by 140% (resulting in an original cost of $10,000)? Multiplying $14,000 by 40% doesn't make sense to me? Am I alone in this?
I had no trouble with the other two items.
