Consolidated Stockholders’ Equity: Theory vs. Practice
This case helps students understand how companies employ accounting practices
that are not necessarily in accordance with accounting theory or even current
standards. Students have to determine how Xerox reported the sale of stock of a
subsidiary prior to 2008, and how such sales must be reported under current
standards. They also have to identify how Occidental treats subsidiary preferred
stock, and how they should be reported in the consolidated financial statements.
