Under IFRS, the fair value option is only available to venture capitalists and unit trusts. On the other hand, it is available to all entities under U.S. GAAP.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Impairment<\/h2>\r\n<p>Equity method investments require periodic reviews for impairment. Impairment occurs when the carrying amount is greater than the fair value. Impairment needs to be indicated by at least one loss event under IFRS. Under U.S. GAAP, if the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value, the investment is written down to fair value, and a loss is recognized on the income statement. The reversal of permanent impairment losses is prohibited.<\/p>\r\n<p>The assets cannot be <em><strong>written up <\/strong><\/em>under both IFRS and U.S. GAAP.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"margin: 18px 0;\"><a style=\"display: block; text-align: center; padding: 14px 18px; border: 2px solid #2F5BFF; border-radius: 18px; color: #ffffff; font-weight: 600; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; background-color: #1a73e8;\" href=\"https:\/\/analystprep.com\/free-trial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Master CFA Level II IFRS and GAAP concepts with our Free Trial.<\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n<h2>Joint Ventures<\/h2>\r\n<p>Joint ventures have different definitions under IFRS and U.S. GAAP. <strong>IFRS <\/strong>classifies joint ventures as jointly controlled operations, jointly controlled assets, and jointly controlled entities. The preferred accounting treatment is <em><strong>proportionate consolidation<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\r\n<p>On the contrary, U.S. GAAP views joint ventures as jointly controlled separate entities. The preferred accounting treatment is the equity method.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<h2>Business Combinations<\/h2>\r\n<p>Under IFRS and U.S. GAAP, business combinations must be accounted for using the acquisition method.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Goodwill<\/h3>\r\n<p>The previous LOS defines goodwill as an unidentifiable asset that cannot be separated from the business. IFRS recognizes it as partial goodwill, whereas U.S. GAAP recognizes it as full goodwill.<\/p>\r\n<p>Where:<\/p>\r\n<p>$$\\text{Partial goodwill}=\\text{Purchase price}-(\\%\\ \\text{owned}\\times \\text{Fair value of net identifiable assets of the subsidiary})$$<\/p>\r\n<p>$$\\text{Full goodwill}=\\text{Fair value of equity of whole subsidiary}-(\\text{Fair value of net identifiable assets of the subsidiary})$$<\/p>\r\n<h4>More on Goodwill<\/h4>\r\n<p>Goodwill is not amortized but tested for impairment. Under IFRS, goodwill is impaired when the recoverable value of a business unit is less than the carrying value (one-step approach). On the other hand, goodwill is impaired when the carrying value of a business unit exceeds its fair value under U.S. GAAP. An impairment loss is a difference between the implied fair value of the reporting unit&#8217;s goodwill and the carrying amount (two-step approach).<\/p>\r\n<h3>Non-Controlling (Minority) Interest<\/h3>\r\n<p>A non-controlling interest is the portion of the subsidiary&#8217;s equity not owned by the parent when the acquirer holds less than a 100% stake in the target.<\/p>\r\n<p>$$\\text{Minority Interest}=\\text{Percentage of a subsidiary not owned by the parent}\\times\\text{Subsidiary&#8217;s equity}$$<\/p>\r\n<p>It is reported as a separate <strong>component<\/strong> of <strong>stockholder&#8217;s equity<\/strong> under both IFRS and US GAAP.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<h2>Property, Plant, and Equipment (PPE)<\/h2>\r\n<p>IFRS allows PPE to be reported either at historical cost or fair value. However, U.S. GAAP allows companies to only use the historical model.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Under the historical cost model, PPE is reported at historical cost as follows:<\/p>\r\n<p>$$\\text{Historical cost} \u2013 \\text{Accumulated Depreciation or Amortization} \u2013 \\text{Impairment loss}$$<\/p>\r\n<p>Under the revaluation cost model, long-lived assets are reported at fair value as follows:<\/p>\r\n<p>$$\\text{Fair value} \u2013 \\text{Accumulated depreciation or Amortization} \u2013 \\text{Impairment losses}$$<\/p>\r\n<h2>VIEs and SPEs<\/h2>\r\n<p>Under IFRS, an SPE must be consolidated if the substance of the relationship indicates control. Under U.S. GAAP, the primary beneficiary of a VIE (which is often the sponsor) must consolidate it as its subsidiary regardless of how much of an equity investment it has in the VIE.<\/p>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<h2>Question<\/h2>\r\n<p>Company P forms a special purpose entity (SPE) and contributes $20 million in cash. Company P will provide all the services to build and maintain a new commercial property that the SPE will own.<\/p>\r\n<p>Other capital providers contribute $100 million and, between them, will have 85% voting interest in the SPE. Company P will absorb some of the profits and the majority of the losses. Under U.S. GAAP, Company P&#8217;s SPE is <em>most likely<\/em> to be:<\/p>\r\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: upper-alpha;\">\r\n\t<li>Consolidated as Company P is considered the primary beneficiary.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Held off the balance sheet as Company P does not have majority voting control.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Consolidated since Company P provides the majority of the services to the SPE.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h4>Solution<\/h4>\r\n<p><strong>The correct answer is A.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>P Inc. is required to consolidate the SPE regardless of its voting interest and is considered the primary beneficiary as it absorbs the most of losses.
