Different degrees of control

Passive Influence: investor has little or no influence and generally less than 20% Significant Influence: investor can exert significant but not complete control and has between 20 but less than 50% Controlling Influence: the investor has control and 50% or more

What does significant influence imply regarding financial investments? Describe the accounting procedures used for such investments.

Significant influence gives the owner of the stock the ability to influence significantly the operating and financing activities of the company whose stock is owned. Normally, this is accomplished with a 20% through 50% ownership of the company's voting stock. The equity method is used to account for investments with significant influence. Such an investment is initially recorded at cost; the investment is increased by the proportionate share of the investee company's net income, and equity income is reported in the income statement; the investment account is decreased by dividends received on the investment; and the investment account is reported in the balance sheet at its book value. Unrealized appreciation in the market value of the investment is not recognized.

Where are unrealized holding gains and losses related to trading securities reported in the financial statements? Where are unrealized holding gains and losses related to availablefor-sale securities reported in the financial statements?

Unrealized holding gains and losses related to trading securities are reported in the current-year income statement (and also retained earnings). Unrealized holding gains and losses related to available-for-sale securities are reported as Other Comprehensive Income and are included in a component of stockholders' equity called Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.
