Sample Questions

Q1) Discuss the conditions under which the SEC would assume a presumption of control.Additionally, under what circumstances might consolidation be required even though the parent does not control the subsidiary? When would it not be appropriate to consolidate when more than 50% of the voting stock is held?

Answer: SEC Regulation S-X defines control in terms of power to direct or cause the direction of management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. Thus, control has been said to exist when less than 51% ownership exists, but there are no other large ownership interests that can exert influence on management.

The exception to consolidating when control exists is if control is only temporary or does not exist with the majority owner. This could occur when the subsidiary is in bankruptcy, in legal organization, or when foreign exchange restrictions or foreign government controls cast doubt on the ability of the parent to exercise control over the subsidiary.
