Equity Income

yeah, sorry, should have been more specific - the purchase will show up in the cash flow statement - i’m talking about whether or not income from the affiliate other than dividends shows up in the cash flow statement (i didn’t think it does.)

Let me go check my notes, brb

i’m pretty sure it doesn’t. it would mean that a whole bunch of cash would would have to be leaving the affilate and going to the parent, doesn’t make any sense.

Ali you’re right. Only the funds used in the acquisition hit the Cash flow stmt. BUt dividends received def have to the Cash flow stmt because you’re receiving money, right?

yeahhhhhhhh it’s a celebration http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zvDmLnBgTs

Assets of the investee go down (cash decrease) as well as equity (retained earnings).

so that would be a CFO inflow? Btw what’s up guys? how’s things? lol. this lvl 2 material blows. I got accting down and equity. Struggling with everything else lol

yeah dividends received are CFO under U.S. GAAP., CFO or CFI under IFRS yeah L2 is pretty bad, it’s a little bit harder than i expected it to be- hopefully the next 2 weeks will enough to pound all this shit into my head. the whole new “assume IFRS unless otherwise stated” thing is a mindfuck.

I just hope they don’t give us an IFRS hyper inflation question lol

It sucks bad. I just want to get this over with. How about you?

same man. I just wanna start working out again and be able to sit down, drink a beer and watch a Yankee game without feeling guilty. Starting to think that taking lvl 2 right after lvl 1 was a mistake. My mind is totally fried.
