A multinational firm with a U.S. dollar reporting currency has a subsidiary in Japan. The subsidiary's functional currency is the Japanese Yen. During the year, the Yen depreciates significantly against the Dollar.
What is the impact on the consolidated financial statements?
- The subsidiary must switch to the remeasurement (temporal) method.
- A negative Cumulative Translation Adjustment (CTA) is recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI).
- No impact, as the subsidiary's Yen-denominated equity remains unchanged.
- A translation loss is recognized directly in the consolidated income statement.
