Kevin Rathbun, CFA, is a financial analyst at a major brokerage firm. His supervisor, Elizabeth Mao, CFA, asks him to analyze the financial position of Wayland, Inc. (Wayland), a manufacturer of components for high quality optic transmission systems. Mao also inquires about the impact of any unconsolidated investments.On December 31,2007, Wayland purchased a 35% ownership interest in a strategic new firm called Optimax for $300,000 cash. The pre-acquisition balance sheets of both firms are found in Exhibit 1.On the acquisition date, all of Optimax's assets and liabilities were stated on its balance sheet at their fair values except for its property, plant, and equipment (PP&E), which had a fair value of $1.2 million. The remaining useful life of the PP&E is ten years with no salvage value. Both firms use the straight-line depreciation method.For the year ended 2008, Optimax reported net income of $250,000 and paid dividends of$100,000.During the first quarter of 2009, Optimax sold goods to Wayland and recognized $15,000 of profit from the sale. At the end of the quarter, half of the goods purchased from Optimax remained in Wayland's inventory.Wayland currently uses the equity method to account for its investment in Optimax. However, given the potential significance of the investment in the future, Rathbun believes that a proportionate consolidation of Optimax may give a clearer picture of the financial and operating characteristics of Wayland.Rathbun also notes that Wayland owns shares in Vanry, Inc. (Vanry). Rathbun gathers the data in Exhibit 2 from Wayland's financial statements. The year-end portfolio value is the market value of all Vanry shares held on December 31. All security transactions occurred on July 1, and the transaction price is the price that Wayland actually paid for the shares acquired. Vanry pays a cash dividend of $1 per share at the end of each year. Wayland expects to sell its investment in Vanry in the near term and accounts for it as held-for-trading.Wayland owns some publicly traded bonds of the Rotor Corporation that it reports as held-to- maturity securities.What amount should Wayland report in its balance sheet as a result of its investment in Optimax at the end of 2008?
Answer(s): B
Under the equity method, Wayland recognizes its pro-rata share of Optimaxs net income less the additional depreciation that resulted from the increase in fair value of Optimaxs PP&E.Pro-rata share of Optimaxs net income 587,500 [$250,000 x 35%]Less: Additional depreciation from PPE 7.000 [($200,000 / 10 years) x 35%] Equity income $80,500Wayland's investment account on the balance sheet increased by its equity income and decreased by the dividends received from the investment.Beginning investment account $300,000Equity income from Optimax 80.500Less: Dividends received 35.000 [$100,000 dividends x 35%]Ending investment account $345,500(Study Session 5, LOS 21.b)

Wayland should reduce its equity income by:
Answer(s): A
Since al! of the profit from the intercompany transaction is included in Optimax's net income, Wayland must reduce its equity income of Optimax by the pro-rata share of the unconfirmed profit- Since half of the goods remain, half of the profit is unconfirmed. Thus, Wayland must reduce its equity income $2,625 (($15,000 total profit x 50% unconfirmed) x 35% ownership interest]. (Study Session 5, LOS 21.b)

Proportionate consolidation and the equity method both lead to the same net income and the same shareholders' equity. COGS arc higher under proportionate consolidation as compared to the equity method. Under proportionate consolidation, the investor recognizes its pro- rata share of each income statement account. Under the equity method, the investor recognizes its pro-rata share of the investec's earnings in one line of the income statement. (Study Session 5, LOS 21.c)

The change in market value for the period and dividends received from the investment are recognized in the income statement for trading securities. In 2008, there was a $25,000 unrealized gain on the original 25,000 shares [25,000 shares x ($76 — $75)] and a $10,000 unrealized loss on the shares purchased in 2008 [5,000 shares x ($76 - $78)]. Wayland received $30,000 in dividends from Vanry (30,000 shares x $1 per share). For 2008, the income statement impact is a $45,000 profit ($25,000 unrealized gain on original shares - $10,000 unrealized loss on increase in shares + $30,000 dividends received).
