How do these accounting concepts in M&A relate to each other?
I have a basic understanding of what each is by reading about them in a piecemeal fashion from different sources, but how are these concepts related to each other?
- purchase accounting
- stock or asset sale
- cost, equity, or consolidation method
Is purchase accounting applicable only to the consolidation method? Do asset sales require cost/equity/consolidation method or are those only applicable to stock sales? Is purchase accounting only used for asset sales (or does it apply to stock sales as well)?
