The unassigned assets consist of $640,000 of unallocated goodwill and $240,000 of assets attached to the corporate headquarters. For internal decision-making purposes, goodwill is not assigned to the segments and the assets assigned to the corporate headquarters are allocated equally to the operating segments. Required: 1. What is the proper threshold value to use in determining operating segments shown above are reporting segments?

2. Which of the operating segments are considered reporting segments? Requirement 1 SFAS 131 allows the assets of the corporate headquarters to be included in the segments if the assets are included in the measure of the segment’s assets that are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker. This interpretation would justify the exclusion of goodwill and inclusion of the corporate headquarters assets. The threshold value would be 10% times the sum of ($4,240,000 + $240,000) or $448,000. Requirement 2 Using the criterion established in Requirement 1, Motion Pictures and Communications would both be considered reporting segments. Publishing would not be a reporting segment because it falls below the $448,000 threshold value. ($320,000 + $240,000/3 = $400,000).

Required: 1. In applying the “reported profit or loss” test to identify reporting segments, what is the test value for Crane Corporation?

2. Using the "reported profit or loss" test, which of Crane's operating segments will also be reporting segments? Requirement 1 If the absolute value of the loss segments, $95,000, is more than the absolute value of the profitable segments, $72,000, the absolute value of the loss segments, when multiplied by 10%, would become the test value for each segment. The $95,000 is multiplied by 10% to get $9,500, which is the test value for both the profitable and loss segments. Requirement 2 Based on the answer to Requirement 1, Lawn and Garden and Service Contracts are not considered reporting segments. All of the other segments would be reporting segments because the absolute value of their profit or loss is more than $9,500.

Required: 1. Which of Plover's operating segments would be considered reporting segments under the “revenue” test? 2. Which of Plover's operating segments would be considered reporting segments under the “asset” test? Requirement 1 The test value is 10% of the combined revenues of all operating segments including intersegment revenues, or, 10% x $416,000 or $41,600. Based on this test value, Refinery, Chemicals, and Solar Power would be the reporting segments because each of these segments has more than $41,600 in total sales. Requirement 2 The test value is 10% of the combined identifiable assets or 10% x $1,284,000 or $1,284. Based on this test value, Oil Exploration, Refinery, Chemicals, and Solar Power would be the reporting segments because each of these segments has more than $1,284 in segment assets. Exercise 4 For internal decision-making purposes, Falcon Corporation identifies its industry segments by geographical area. For 2006, the total revenues of each segment are provided below. There are no intersegment revenues. Total Revenues Canada $ 22,000,000 United States 76,000,000 Mexico 10,000,000 South America 9,000,000 China 2,000,000 Russia 1,500,000 Australia 3,000,000 European Union 12,000,000 Other European 14,000,000 Total revenues $ 149,500,000 Required:

1. Which operating segments will be considered reporting segments based on the revenue test? 2. What is the test value for determining whether a sufficient number of segments are reported? 3. What will be the minimum number of segments that must be reported? Requirement 1 The reporting segments will be those segments whose segment revenue is 10% or more of the combined revenues of all operating segments. The total combined revenue of the operating segments is $149,500,000 and 10% of that number is $14,950,000. Only Canada and the United States will satisfy the 10% revenue test. Requirement 2 The appropriate test value is the “75% of consolidated revenues” test which is $112,125,000 ($149,500,000 x 75%). Requirement 3 Canada and the United States must be included and will account for $98,000,000 of the minimum $112,125,000. A minimum of two additional segments must be added in order to surpass the 75% consolidated revenue test since no one segment can contribute the remaining shortfall of $14,125,000. Therefore, the minimum number of segments is four. Exercise 5 The following data relate to Crake Corporation’s industry segments. (Crake HQ represents the corporate headquarters).
