Learning Objectives

  • To differentiate the market value method from the equity method and describe the conditions under which each is used.
  • To describe the fundamental issues involved when one company acquires a controlling interest in another company and explain how goodwill appears on the financial statements and is subsequently accounted for.
  • To list and describe the major issues involved when accounting for long-lived assets and briefly explain how the accounting methods for each issue affect the financial statements.

Course Overview

Long-lived assets are those that provide a company with a future economic benefit beyond the current year or operating period.

These assets include:

  • Tangible assets 
  • Intangible assets
  • Financial assets

There are two important questions in accounting for a long-lived asset:

  • What cost should be shown on the balance sheet
  • How should this cost be allocated over the life of an asset?

This CPE course covers accounting treatment for investments in equity securities (including mark-to-market accounting, equity method, and consolidations); property, plant, and equipment; and intangible assets.  The financial statements and the footnotes of the companies featured in this course include Walt Disney, 3M, and Yahoo.

Major topics covered in this online Accounting CPE webinar:

  • Non-controlling investments in equity
  • Acquisition accounting and goodwill
  • Long-lived assets
