Thank you! Part of my problem was a formula error in excel, I dealt
with the P&E and Acc Depr differently, but your way is better. I
hadn't yet dealt with the AR, which was silly, but definitely makes
sense.
I'm confused on the NCI-BS, actually I'm having issues with the
difference between NCI BS and NCI IS for parts b and c as well... was
there an example somewhere that you followed? I'd really like to
understand rather than just following your lead. This is what I have
for NCI which is what I used on the B/S...
Consolidated Net Income
Pearl's Net Income - cost method 1,000,000.00
Less: dividends from Silver -150,000.00
850,000.00
Silver's Net income 400,000.00
Less Purchase discrepancy amortization -80,000.00
320,000.00
Pearl's ownership 75%
240,000.00
Consolidated Net Income 1,090,000.00
NCI (25%) 80,000.00
Thanks!
