what is the difference bitween Consolidated and Parent Companies?..

Answer / viswanatha

onsolidated f/s like combined f/s sum up the reporting entities or subsidiaries transactions into a total.
The difference is that consolidated f/s will eliminate transactions where subsidiary entities bought and sold goods or loaned each other money. For example lets say we have Parent company P and subsidiary companies S and T. S sells 1,000 widgets to T for 10 each = $10,000. S would record revenue of $10,000 and T would record expense of $10,000. However when P consolidates the f/s P would eliminate that sale as an inter-entity transaction, if not, then revenue and expenses would be over stated by $10,000. P is really just moving money from one pocket to another, there is no sale where P actually gains real income.
Hope this was helpful.
