Business combination:

Business combination refers to the combining of one or more business organizations in a single entity. The business combination leads to the formation of combined financial statements. After business combination, the entities having separate control merges into one having control over all the assets and liabilities. Merging and acquisition are types of business combinations.

Consolidated financial statements:

The consolidated financial statements refer to the combined financial statements of the entities which are prepared at the year-end. The consolidated financial statements are prepared when one organization is either acquired by the other entity or two organizations merged to form the new entity. The consolidated financial statements serve the purpose of both the entities about financial information.

Value analysis:

The value analysis in a business combination is an essential part of determining the worth of the acquired entity. The goodwill or gain on acquisition is computed in the value analysis. If the net worth of the acquired entity is less than the consideration paid, then it results in goodwill, and if the net worth of the acquired entity is more than the consideration paid, then it results in gain on the acquisition.
