Non-Controlling Interests  What are non-controlling interests? The portion of a partnership that is not owned by you.  In a typical syndicated tax credit residential partnership: Sponsor owns 1%, Investor limited partner owns 98% Special limited partner (owned by the investor) has a 1% share

Non-Controlling Interests  Why do you have to consolidate an entity of which you do not own greater than 50%?  EITF 04-5 issue in 2004 determined that a sole general partner should consolidate a limited partnership if:  The general partner controls the day to day operations  The limited partner’s rights are “protective” rather than “participating”  The limited partner could not kick the general partner out without cause The existence of these conditions results in control being exercised over the partnership by the general partner and is therefore required to be consolidated with the general partner

Questions?  Please use #6 to unmute your phone to ask a question, or  Use the Chat function via WebEx.  Use *6 to place your line on mute when finished speaking.

Preparation  Review partnership or operating agreements for all entities that your company is involved with.  Following your review you should be able to document: Which entities are wholly owned Which entities are controlled Which entities you are involved with but do not control, regardless of % of ownership interest

Balance Sheet Presentation of Non-Controlling Interest  The section of your net assets pertaining to the non-controlling interests will be labeled Net Assets, attributable to non-controlling interests  See Exhibit 1.

Statement of Changes in Net Assets  Your changes in Net Assets will include a roll forward of the assets owned by the sponsor and a roll forward of net assets owned by the investor limited partners, by class of net assets – Unrestricted, Temporarily Restricted and Permanently Restricted  See Exhibit 2.

Questions?  Please use #6 to unmute your phone to ask a question, or  Use the Chat function via WebEx.  Use *6 to place your line on mute when finished speaking.

How do you calculate the Non-Controlling Interest?  If there are no eliminating entries, it is simply a matter of multiplying the net income (loss) of your residential partnership by the ownership interests involved.  Residential Property A has a net loss of $186,290 Loss allocated to ABC - $1,863 Loss allocated to Investor LP – $182,564 Loss allocated to Special Limited LP - $1,863

How do eliminating entries affect the non-controlling interests?  You must decide whether your eliminating entries will impact the non-controlling interest’s share of net income and net assets  There are two common approaches to determining where the eliminations should be recorded: See Exhibit 3 Sample Workbook.

Questions?  Please use #6 to unmute your phone to ask a question, or  Use the Chat function via WebEx.  Use *6 to place your line on mute when finished speaking.

Quick Poll & Questions  While we take questions, please take a minute to complete the Poll in the Polling panel on the right side of your screen.  Be sure to click Submit when you’ve finished.  NOTE: Polls help to verify participation throughout the webinar. If you plan to petition your state board of accountancy for CPE credits, please complete and submit ALL polls.

Control issues related to non-profits  Control of a non-profit is determined by board representation  If your organization appoints more than 50% of the board of the affiliated NPO, then we would combine that NPO with our organization’s financial statements.  Combined financials are added to your organization’s financials in the same manner as the entities that are consolidated. The terminology differs because there is no ownership interest involved.

Conclusion  Non-controlling interests add a level of complexity to the consolidation process that should not be under estimated.  Consider the use of a workbook to help gather all information pertaining to each of the properties that you do not wholly own but must be consolidated.

Conclusion  The format presented here works when you have only a handful of partnerships to consolidate. If you have more than properties, another method for gathering data may be more efficient.  Although this presentation will show you how to consolidate using Excel, automation of the process is preferred and will depend upon your financial software. Excel, while useful, will not be your friend in the end.

Questions?  Please use #6 to unmute your phone to ask a question, or  Use the Chat function within WebEx.
