Speaking of earnings…….I’m not an accountant so I don’t know how this stuff works ….
How is Ford’s sale of Volvo for $2.8B going to effect their bottom line. I know it’s booked as income but IIRC they paid something over $6B for the company when they bought it. So can they claim a loss on the difference? What will that do to Ford’s balance sheet and share price if they book it as a loss?
That’s a great question. Seems the bean counters can make a transaction show up on the balance sheet in any fashion they like or suits them the best. Only thing I can add comes from a recent book I read. If the market thought the Volvo division was dead weight then this will be seen as a positive no matter how it shows up on the balance sheet. It might take time for the effects to show up in earnings, but dumping underperforming divisions is a very good thing.
