Consolidation, Translation and the Equity Method: Concepts and Procedures (Wiley Professional Accounting and Business)

This, the first book devoted exclusively to consolidated financial statements, lets readers access useful information in half the time it previously took. Only this single reference source answers all practical questions relating to the preparation or use of consolidation, translation, or the equity method; provides a simple explanation of all the underlying concepts; describes every procedure; provides examples from annual reports of disclosures; and discusses all relevant issues, including stockholding changes, intercompany tax allocations, and push down accounting.
