Definition

Specifies the item for net income in a merger.

Use

In this field, you enter an item for the net income in a merger.

This item is part of appropriation of retained earnings. If you selected the Total Divestiture Due to Merger indicator for a specific consolidation unit in the hierarchy attributes of the consolidation group, the system posts the total divestiture for this consolidation unit as follows:

  • The consolidation group change undoes protected items on the Net Income from Mergers item.
  • The consolidation of investments suppresses the posting of divestiture gain in the income statement and uses the Net Income from Mergers item instead.

Using this item, you can identify those financial statement imbalances from the merger that need to be transferred without affecting net income. Therefore, for the acquiring company you should report the transfer of financial statement imbalances on the Net Income from Mergers item, as well.

Dependencies

You can define the special item Net Income from Mergers only if you have first activated the setting Merger Activities in the system utilization for consolidation of investments.
