In its segment information for 20X3, how many reportable segments does Correy have?

a. Three.
b. Four.
c. Five.
d. Six.

A
  1. (c) A segment is reportable if it represents at least 10% of the activities of the overall entity.

The 10% test is applied to revenues, assets, and profits and if the segment’s amount is at least 10% of the total for any one of those factors, it is a reportable segment.

Segments A, B, C, and E are reportable segments under all 3 tests.

Segment D is a reportable segment because its identifiable assets are 11.1% of the total, exceeding the 10% minimum.

As a result, all 5 are reportable segments.

Q
  1. ABC Co. had the following revenues and expenses that occurred relating to their operating segments during the year:

Sales to unaffiliated customers = $1,000,000
Intersegment sales of products = 400,000
Interest earned on loans to other segments = 30,000
General corporate expenses = 25,000

In order to qualify as a reportable segment, the segments revenue must exceed..

a $143,000

b. $140,000
c. $140,500
d. $100,000

A
  1. (b)When applying the revenue test to determine if a segment is a reportable segment, the segment’s revenues are compared to the total for the entity.

Total revenues include revenues from intersegment sales.

Revenues do not, however, include interest earned, which is reported as other income, not revenue.

It also doesn’t include general corporate expenses, as those stay at the corporate level.

As a result, total revenue is ($1,000,000 + $400,000) $1,400,000 and any segment with 10% revenues of $140,000 or above will be a reportable segment.
