"Consolidated Financial Statements and Variable Interest Entities"
· Per the textbook, some investors (e.g., Warren Buffet) have contended that the U.S. GAAP treatment undervalued the parent’s investment carrying value for post-control step acquisitions. Construct one (1) argument in which you provide at least two (2) reasons for the U.S. GAAP treatment of reporting additional investments in subsidiaries when the parent previously established control. Provide support for your rationale.
