Question
Pitino acquired 90 percent of Brey’s outstanding shares on January 1, 2013, in exchange for $477,000 in cash. The subsidiary’s stockholders’ equity accounts totaled $461,000 and the noncontrolling interest had a fair value of $53,000 on that day. However, a building (with a ten-year remaining life) in Brey’s accounting records was undervalued by $43,000. Pitino assigned the rest of the excess fair value over book value to Brey’s patented technology (four-year remaining life). Brey reported net income from its own operations of $79,000 in 2013 and $95,000 in 2014. Brey declared dividends of $26,500 in 2013 and $30,500 in 2014. Brey sells inventory to Pitino as follows: Year Cost to Brey Transfer Price to Pitino Inventory Remaining at Year-End (at transfer price) 2013 $ 84,000 $ 190,000 $ 40,000 2014 126,000 210,000 52,500 2015 164,500 235,000 70,000 At December 31, 2015, Pitino owes Brey $31,000 for inventory acquired during the period. The following separate account balances are for these two companies for December 31, 2015, and the year then ended. Note: Parentheses indicate a credit balance.

What unrealized gross profit existed as of January 1, 2015? d. What unrealized gross profit existed as of December 31, 2015? e. What amounts make up the $106,380 equity earnings of Brey account balance for 2015?
Explanation / Answer
(a) Calculation of acquisition date fair value
Fair value is allocated to patented tecnology which has a remaining useful life of 4 years. Thus annual amortization is $15525 i.e. ($62100/4).
(b). Since brey is a subsidiary of pitino thus any transfer made by brey will be a upstream transfer.
(c) Calculation of unrealized profit for 2014
Sales price = 210000
Cost to brey = 126000
profit earned on transfer = 210000-126000 = 84000
Unsold inventory in the stock of pitino = 52500
Unrealied profit = (84000/210000)*52500
= 21000
(d). Calculation of unrealized profit for 2015
Sales price = 235000
Cost to brey = 164500
profit earned on transfer = 235000-164500 = 70500
Unsold inventory in the stock of pitino = 70000
Unrealied profit = (70500/235000)*70000
= 21000
