Chapter 12

Investments
Objectives of the Chapter
1.Classification and reporting of
Investments: trading securities,
available-for-sale securities and held-
to-maturity securities.
2.Investments recorded and reported
using the equity method.
3. The fair value option reporting for
investments.
Investments 2
Securities for Investments
 Investment in debt securities: include
U.S. treasury securities, municipal
securities, corporate bonds,
commercial papers, pf stock with a
mandatory redemption feature or
redeemable at the option of the holder.
 Investment in equity securities: include
common stock, preferred stock, stock
warrants, stock rights, call and put

Investments 3
Securities for Investments(cont.)
 For reporting purposes, all investments
must be classified into one of the
following three categories at the
reporting date:

1. Trading securities;

2. Available-for-sale securities; or

3. Held-to-maturity securities.
Investments 4
Classification of Investments
1.Trading securities: investments in debt
and equity securities held for the
purpose of selling them in the near
future.
2. Available-for-sale securities: Including
debt and equity securities that are not
classified as trading securities and not
classified as held-to-maturity
securities.
Investments 5
Classification of Investments (cont.)
3.Held-to-maturity securities:
investments in debt securities with
positive intent and ability to hold these
securities to maturity.

Investments 6
Classification of Investments (cont.)
 Classifications of investments in
securities into these three categories
and the subsequent reclassification
are based on management’s intent
and judgment.

Investments 7
Investments - initial recording and
end of period reporting (valuation)
1.Initial Recording of all investments:
at cost.
2. End of Period Reporting (Valuation):
a. Trading securities: reported at their
fair market values on the B/S. The
unrealized gains or losses are included
in income of the current period.

Investments 8
Investments - initial recording and
valuation (cont.)
b. Available-for-sale securities: reported
at their fair values on the B/S. The
unrealized gains or losses are reported
as a separate component of
stockholders’ equity until realized.
c. Held-to-maturity securities: reported at
their amortized cost.

Investments 9
Investments - dividends and Interest
revenue
 Dividends, interest revenues of
investments in securities and realized
gains or losses from sale of investments
are reported in the income statement.

Investments 10
Investments - other valuation
methods
 Other Valuation Methods:
 a. Equity method: Applied when
investments in equity securities with
significant influence over the investee
(usually owing 20% - 50% of the voting
stock). No recognition of unrealized
gains or losses.
 Results in a partial consolidation
statements for the investor.
Investments 11
Investments - other valuation
methods (cont.)
b. Consolidated financial statements
Applied when the investor(the parent)
controls the investee (the subsidiary)
through an investment in equity
securities (i.e., the investor owing over
50% of the voting common stock).

Investments 12
Investments - other valuation
methods (cont.)
 The investor has to issue the
consolidated financial statements.
No recognition of unrealized gains or
losses.

Realized Gains and Losses from Sale
of investments
 Realized gains and losses are
calculated as the difference between the
selling price and the cost and is reported
in the income statement.

 This is due to the unrealized gain/loss of

SAS is never recognized in the income
statement.

Impairment of Securities Available-
for-Sale
 If the decline in the fair value of securities
available-for-sale is NOT temporary (i.e.,
a bankruptcy filing), the value of the
securities should be written down to the
fair value.
 The amount of the write-down should be
treated as a realized loss and is included
in the income of the year.

Investments 33
Investments Classified as Trading
Securities

 The accounting treatment (SFAS 115)

(a) initial recording: at cost;
(b) end of period reported: at fair value;
(c) unrealized holding gains or losses:
reported in the income statement;
(d) interests, dividends, realized gains
or losses reported in the income
statement
Investments 34
Investments Classified as Trading
Securities (contd.)
 Trading securities are held primarily by
banks and stock brokers. FASB 115
applies to all specialized industries.
 For trading securities, the realized gains
and losses are computed as the
difference of the selling price and the fair
value (NOT the cost) recorded in the most
recent balance sheet date.
 This is due to the unrealized holding
gain/loss for trading sec. is recognized in
the previous income statement.

Investments in Held-to-Maturity (HTM)
Securities
 APB opinion No.21 recommends separate
disclosure of face amount ($100,000) and the
discount ($1,000).
 However, most investors do not use separate
accounts for face value and the unamortized
discount (or premium).
 The discount ($1,000) will be amortized to
increase the interest revenue using the
effective interest method.

Investments 44
Example E: amortization of discount or
premium of investments in held-to-maturity
 Assume that Green acquires an investment in
bonds that will be held to maturity with a face
value of $100,000 for $102,458.71 on 1/1/x5.
The stated interest rate is 13% and interests
are paid on 6/30 and 12/31. The bonds mature
on 12/31/x7. The effective interest rate is
12%*
* 102,458.71 = 100,000 x 0.70496 + 6,500 x 4.91732

 Amortization for Bonds Acquired
Between Interest Dates
Example G(cont.)
Verifying the purchase price of example G :
Present value of the bond on 1/1/x5
=> 200,000 x 0.705 + 13,000 x 4.917 = $204,921
Interest Revenue for 1/1/95 - 6/30/x5

$204,921 x 12% x 6/12 = 12,295

Cash Received for interest (1/1/x5 - 6/30/x5)

$200,000 x 13% x 6/12 = 13,000

Premium amortized for the period of 1/1/x5 - 6/30/x5
=>13,000 -12,295 = 705 (for 6 months)
Premium amortized for the period of 1/1/x5 - 4/1/x5
=>705 x 3/6 = 352.5 (for 3 months of the first period)
Therefore, the P.V. of the bond on 4/1/x5 =>

$204,921 -352.5 = $204,568.5

The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets (SFAS 159)
 SFAS159 allows companies to choose
reporting most financial assets at fair value
including security investments classified as
available-for-sale (SAS) and held-to-maturity
(HTM).
 This decision of reporting these investments
at fair value is irrevocable.
 Once the decision is made for a SAS or a
HTM security, the company would report that
security as a trading security.

Investments 66
The Fair Value Option (contd.)
 When electing the fair value option to
account for SAS or HTM, the fair value
adjustment for these securities should be
made indirectly using a valuation account
(i.e., the fair value adjustment account).
 The fair value adjustment should not be
made directly to the trading security account.
 The unrealized gain or loss would be
reported in the income statement.

Investments 67
Example I: Same infor. as in Example A on p20,

Transfers Between Reporting Categories

Investment classification is
reassessed at each reporting date.
Securities investments can be
reclassified* at the reporting date if a
different reporting category is more
appropriate.
*an unusual event, disclosures of
reasons are required

Investments 71
Transfers (contd.)
At reclassification:
1) The security is updated to its fair
value.
2) The security is transferred at its
fair value.
3) Any unrealized holding gain or loss
should be accounted for in a
manner consistent with the new
reporting category.

Financial Statement Classification
a.Trading securities: current assets.
b.Securities-available-for-sale (SAS):
Current or noncurrent depends on
whether the securities will be sold in
one year or one operating cycle,
whichever is longer.
c.Securities-held-to-maturity:current or
noncurrent assets.

Investments 83
Financial Statement Classification

 Trading securities related cash flows are

classified as cash flows of operating
activities while cash flows from all other
types of securities are reported as cash
flows of investing activities.

Investments 84
Financial Statement Disclosure
Disclosure notes for investments should
include:
a. Amortized cost (cost basis).
b.Gross unrealized gains.
c. Gross unrealized losses.
d. Estimated fair value.

Investments 85
Impairment of Value
 If the decline in the fair value of
investment is NOT temporary (I.e., a
bankruptcy filing), the value of the
securities should be written down to the
fair value.
 The amount of the write-down should be
treated as a realized loss and is included
in the income of the year.

Investments 86
Impairment of Value (in Debt Investment)

 Impairment occurs for debt

securities when company cannot
collect all the amount due from
debt securities investments.

Investments 87
Impairment of Value (in Debt Investment)
(cont.)

 The amount of write down is

included in the Income statement
as a realized loss.

 The fair value becomes the “New”

cost and is not changed for the
subsequent recovery in the fair
value.

Investments 88
 Impairment:(contd.)
Example a:
Tracy company had an investment
categorized as held to maturity with an
amortized cost of $21,500 and a fair value
of $6,500. If the decline is Not temporary,
the accounting treatment is:
Loss on Impairment 15,000
Investment in Debt Securities Held
to Maturity 15,000

Investments 89
 Impairment:(contd.)
Example a(contd.):
The $6,500 became the “new” cost.
Interest revenue is computed using the
effective interest needed based on the
new effective rate.

Investments 90
Impairment of Value (contd.):
For investment in debt securities classified as
SAS experienced a decline in value other than
temporary, the accounting treatments are:
1.Eliminate the unrealized gain or loss
related to the securities.
2.Write down to the fair value and
recognize the write down as a realized
Loss.
Therefore, the fair value becomes the new
cost basis.
Investments 91
 Impairments:(contd.)
Example b: (debt investment classified as SAS)
 In 20x7, Hinges' investment in D
company had a fair value of $5,000.
The cost of this investment is $15,000
and the fair value of D company
investment is 13,000 on 12/31/x6. This
investment was classified as SAS. The
J.E. to record the impairment are :

Investments 92
 Impairments:(contd.)
Example b: (debt investment classified as SAS)

 Fair Value Adjustment 2,000

 Unrealized Holding Gain/Loss 2,000
 Eliminate the unrealized gain/loss

 Loss on Impairment 10,000

 Investment in SAS 10,000
 Write down to the fair value

Investments 93
 Impairments:(contd.)
Example c:
 If the debt investment is classified as
trading securities, the following entry will be
recorded for the write-down:
Loss on Impairment 8,000
Investment in Trading 8,000
Securities

Investments 94
Impairment of Value ( in equity securities)
 SFAS No. 115 does not provide precise
guideline to determine the impairment
for equity securities.
 Whenever the realizable value is lower
than the carrying amount of the
investment, an impairment should be
considered.
 Accounting treatment for the write
down is similar to that of the debt
securities as in examples b and c.

Investments 95
Equity Method
 APB Opinion No.18 requires the use of
equity method by an investor who is
able to exercise significant influence
over the operating and financial policies
of an investee.
In the absence to the contrary, an
investment of 20% or more in the
outstanding common stock of the
investee leads to the presumption of
significant influence.

Investments 96
Equity Method

 Exceptions: there are cases that

investors hold 20% or more of the
outstanding common stock of an
investee but do not have significant
influence. In these cases, the equity
method should not be used.
 FASB Interpretation No. 35 provides

examples of these cases:

Investments 97
Equity Method:(contd.)

1.The investee challenges the investor's

ability to exercise significant influence
(through litigation or complaints to
regulators).
2.Majority of investee’s ownership is
concentrated among a small group of
shareholders who operate the investee
without regards the views of the investor;

Investments 98
Equity Method:(contd.)
3.The investor tries and fails to obtain
representation on the investees board of
directors;
4.The investor signs an agreement to give
up significant shareholder rights.
5.The investor could not acquire financial
information needed to apply the equity
method (i.e., fair market value of
depreciable assets).

Investments 99
Equity Method:(contd.)
 On the other hand, the investor may
own less than 20% of the voting shares
but is able to exercise significant
influence over the investee.
The equity method should be applied

in this case.

Investments 100
Consolidated Financial Statements
and the Equity Method
 When a company acquires 51% or more of
the voting stock of another company, the
acquiring firm has the controlling interest and
is called the parent while the investee
company is called the subsidiary.
 Both companies continue to operate as
separate legal entities and report separate
financial statements .
 The parent company also reports
consolidated financial statements (F/S).

Investments 101
Consolidated Financial Statements
and the Equity Method (contd.)
 Consolidated F/S combine the parent and
subsidiary F/S into a single aggregate set
of F/S.
 When a purchase method is used to
account for the acquisition, the acquired
company's assets are reported on the
consolidated F/S at their fair values, not
their book values.

Investments 102
Consolidated Financial Statements
and the Equity Method (contd.)
 If the purchase price is greater than the fair
value of the acquired net assets (fair value of
assets - fair value of liabilities), the excess
amount is recorded as goodwill.
 The depreciation of the acquired company's
assets is based on the fair value on the
consolidated F/S.
 This depreciation expense is greater than
that of using the book value as the
deprecation base.

Investments 103
Consolidated Financial Statements
and the Equity Method (contd.)
 The goodwill is NOT subject to amortization
on the consolidated F/S (SFAS No.142).a
 The incremental depreciation expense will
reduce the net income reported on the
consolidated F/S.
 The investment account of the equity
method is to approximate the net outcome of
the consolidated F/S for the investor.
 a. Effective date for SFAS 142 is for fiscal years beginning after
12/15/2001. SFAS 142 is to apply to all goodwill. Goodwill acquired
after 6/30/2001 is subject immediately to nonamortization of SFAS 142.

Investments 104
The Accounting Procedures of the
Equity Method
The investment is originally recorded at
cost but is subsequently adjusted each
period for the changes in the net assets
of the investee.
The investment is increased (decreased)

by the investor's proportionate shares of

investee’s net income (loss) and
decreased by the dividends received.

Investments 105
The Accounting Procedures of the
Equity Method
The Investee’s net income is further
adjusted by the following:
1. Elimination of intercompany
transaction impact;
2. the depreciation of investee’s
assets step-upa (if there is any)
a. fair value of investee’s depreciable
assets - book value of these assets

Investments 106
The Accounting Procedures of the
Equity Method:(contd.)
 Treat the proportionate share of
investee extraordinary items as
investor's extraordinary items.
 Similar principle applies to investee’s
discontinued operation results and
cumulative effect from accounting
method change).

Investments 107
Summary of the Equity Method
Procedures:

Fair Value Option for Investments
Accounted for Under the Equity Method
 When the fair value option is elected to
report investments accounted for under
the equity method, the investments are
reported at the fair value.
 The investments are not reclassified as
trading securities as in the case of fair
value option reporting for SAS or HTM.

Investments 121
Fair Value Option for Equity Method
Investments (Contd.)
 The investments are reported on a
separate line in the balance sheet or
with other equity method investments
with the fair value in a parenthesis.
 The unrealized holding gain/loss is
reported in the income statement.

Investments 122
Example: Fair Value Option for
Equity Method Investments
 Using the example on p111-120, Clibron
Corporation has been applying the equity
method to account for its investment in Sam
Corporation, the investment account balance
under the equity method is $139,000 on
12/31/20x5(see the t-account on p118).
 Assuming the fair value of Sam Corporation
on 20x5 is $700,000, the fair value of
Clibrone’s 25% share of Sam Corp. would
be $175,000.
Investments 123
Example: Fair Value Option for
Equity Method Investments (Contd.)
 If Clibron had been using the equity method
to account for its investments in Sam Corp.
but elected the fair value option reporting for
this investment on 12/31/x5, the following
adjustment would be made by Clibron Corp.
on 12/31/x5:
 Fair Value Adjustment* 36,000
 Unrealized Holding Gain** 36,000
 *to adjust the investment account to fair value of
$175,000 ** reported in the income statement
Investments 124
Example: Fair Value Option for

 The contribution to the earnings from
investment in Sam Corp equals:
 $19,000 (net investment income

Change from Equity method:

When the ownership falls below 20%,

the investor may lose significant
influence over the investee and the use
of the equity method is no
longerappropriate.

The investment should be accounted

for under the fair value method.

Investments 128
Change from Equity method
(contd.):
No adjustment is made to the carrying
amount of the investment account.
The carrying amount of the investment
on the date of change becomes the new
cost basis.
The equity method is simply
discontinued and the appropriate new
method is applied from then on.

Investments 129
Change to Equity method:
Change to Equity method:
The investment account is retroactively
adjusted to the balance as if the equity
method always had been used.
An example of changing from
accounting the investment as SAS to
the equity method:
Procedures:

Investments 130
Change to Equity method:
1. Eliminate the unrealized gain or loss
(i.e., adjust the investment account to
the cost)
2. Adjust the investment account
retroactively:
Investment in Stock $$
Retained Earnings $$
$$ = its previous percentage of( investee's
adjusted income - Dividends) prior to the
change.
Investments 131
Change to Equity method (contd.):
Prior financial statements should be
restated using the equity method for
comparative purposes.
The income effect for years prior to those

shown in the comparative statements is

reported as an adjustment to the
beginning retained earnings of the earliest
year reported on the R/E statement.

Investments 132
Sale of Equity Method Investment
 A gain or loss is recognized as the
difference between the selling price and
the carrying amount of the investment
account.

Investments 133
Conclusion
 Different methods in accounting for
investments will not affect the cash
flows, but only the income number.
 Equity method is to prevent income
manipulation by investees who have
significant influence on dividend policy.

Investments 134
Additional Issues
 A. Reporting for non marketable securities:
non marketable securities are stock or
bonds issued by a privately-held company
whose securities are not traded in a
“qualifying” market.
Reporting for these securities does not
follow the guidance of SFAS 115. These

Example of stock dividends:
2,000 shares of Kell Co. common
stock were originally purchased for $30
per share by the Smith Co.
 Two months later, Kell issued a 50%
stock dividend. Therefore, Smith
received another 1,000 shares. The
following memo is to reflect the stock
dividend received by Smith:

Example of stock dividends:
memo: Received 1,000 shares of Kell
Company common stock as a stock
dividend. The cost of the shares is now $20
per share, computed as follows: $60,000 /
(2,000 + 1,000) = $20.
Subsequently, 500 shares of investment
were sold for $25 per share. The fair value
at the most recent B/S data was $23 per
share. The journal entry to record this
transaction is:

C.Stock Warrants
 Stock warrants are certificates that enable
their holders to purchase a specific
number of shares at a predetermined
price.

warrants are received by the corporation
holding the investment in common stock.
 It is necessary to assign a portion of the
cost of the stock (investment) to the
warrants upon their receipt of warrants.

Investments 140
Additional Issues:(contd.)
C.Stock Warrants (contd.)
 The amount is determined by use of a
weighted average based on the market
value of the stock ex right and the market
value of the warrants.
The accounting for any subsequent
purchases of shares (or any sale of
warrants) would use the amount assigned
to the warrants.

Investments 141
Additional Issues:(contd.)
D.Convertible Bonds
 Investments in convertible bonds
would be included in the available for
sale (or trading) category and valued at
fair value.
 When these convertible bonds are

E.Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance
Portion of insurance premiums paid for
executives may be returned to the

the cancellation of an insurance is called “
Cash Surrender Value” of an insurance
plan.

Investments 143
Additional Issues:(contd.)
E. (contd.)
This portion of the insurance premiums
(equal to the cash surrender value)
should be reported as a long- term
investment on the balance sheet, rather
than an insurance expense.
Example: At the beginning of the year,
the Mele Co. pays an annual insurance
premium of $5,500 to cover the lives of its
officers. The following entry is recorded:

 Additional Issues:(contd.)
Example:
Prepaid Insurance 5,500
Cash 5,500
 According to the terms of the insurance
contract the cash surrender value of the policy
increases from $7,200 to 8,300 during that
year.
 The adjusting entry at the end of year to
record the insurance expense and the
increase in cash surrender value is as follows:

Investments 145
 Additional Issues:(contd.)
Example:(contd.)
Insurance Expense 4,400
Cash Surr. Value of Life Ins. 1,100
Prepaid Insurance 5,500
 Upon the death of any of insurance officer,
Mele would debit cash for the proceeds
received from the insurance company, credit
cash surrender value and any difference will

F.Investments in Funds
Assets (i.e., securities, cash,..) could be
placed in special funds for specific purposes
(i.e. for the retirement of long-term liabilities
(bond sinking fund), etc).
Assets placed in the funds are not available
for normal operations because of the
contractual arrangement. Therefore, long-
term funds are reported as investments on
the balance sheet.
