Question:
When a parent company sells land to a subsidiary at more than book value, the consolidation eliminating entries at the end of the period include a debit to the gain on the sale of land. When a parent purchases the bonds of a subsidiary from a nonaffiliate at less than book value, the eliminating entries at the end of the period contain a credit to a gain on bond retirement. Why are these two situations not handled in the same manner in the consolidation workpaper?
