Foreign Entity Computes Process in Income Tax

The system uses international computes for foreign entities to compute earnings and profits, Look Through Transactions, Subpart F and investment in U.S. property inclusions, and compute deemed paid credits on distribution amounts. You can select these international computes for foreign entities at the separate company level or from the Top Consolidation binder.

Binder Properties - Members Tab

The
Members
tab on the
Binder Properties
screen only appears in a consolidation, top consolidation or divisional consolidation binder.
You can make selections based on the type of entity:
  • Top Consolidation
    - Select each Subsidiary, Divisional Consolidation, and Parent that you want to be a member.
  • Divisional Consolidation
    - Select each division that you want to be a member. Only divisions can be members of Divisional Consolidations.
  • Prior to tax year 2009, only divisions could be members of Divisional Consolidations. In 2009 or later foreign divisions, parents, subsidiaries, and other divisional consolidations can be members of a foreign divisional consolidation.
