Review of pre-consolidation equity method (controlling investment in affiliate, fair value equals book value)
Assume that on January 1, 2011, an investor company purchased 100% of the outstanding voting common stock of the investee. On the date of the acquisition, the investee's identifiable net assets had fair values that approximated their historical book values. In addition, the acquisition resulted in no goodwill or bargain purchase gain recognized in the consolidated financial statements of the investor company. Assuming that the investor company uses the equity method to account for its investment in the investee, what is the balance in the "income from investee" account in the investor company's preconsolidation income statement for the year ended December 31, 2013?
