The contributed surplus arose from the issue of the preferred shares at a price higher than their stated value. The preferred shares paid cumulative dividends of 5% of their stated value but dividends for 2017 and 2018 were unpaid. The shares were redeemable, at the option of the issuer, at a premium of 8%. The capital assets of Saltines had a remaining useful life of ten years at January 1, 2009. Any unallocated acquisition differential would be treated as goodwill, which is assessed annually for impairment. Parrot accounts for its interest in Saltines using the cost method and accounts for the non-controlling interest in its consolidated financial statements based on the fair value of the subsidiary, proportionate to the price paid for the controlling interest.
Parrot's net income for 2019 was $300,000 and Parrot paid dividends of $150,000 on December 31, 2019.
