I feel like we had a similar question in practice about intercompany transactions, and I think E makes sense because the parent needs to reflect the payable.

The key here is that the goods haven't arrived at the subsidiary yet, so they shouldn't be included in the subsidiary's inventory. I believe the correct approach is to debit the payables account of the parent company and credit the receivables account of the subsidiary.

Based on the information provided, I think the 150,000 should be credited to the subsidiary's payables account and debited to the parent company's receivables account. But I'm not 100% sure.

Okay, let's think this through step-by-step. The subsidiary purchased 150,000 worth of goods from the parent company, but the goods haven't arrived yet. So we need to figure out how to account for this in the CSOFP.

I'm feeling pretty good about this one. The correct answers are B, C, and F. The subsidiary should debit the inventory account, the goods will be included in the next year's CSOFP, and the payables account of the subsidiary should be credited. Easy peasy, right? Now, where's the snack bar?
