ASC 805-50 collects the transactions that fall outside the acquisition method of Topic 805: asset acquisitions that are not businesses, transfers between entities under common control, formation of master limited partnerships, and pushdown accounting. Asset acquisitions are recorded at cost (including transaction costs) and allocated to the individual assets on a relative fair value basis with no goodwill; common-control transfers are recorded by the receiving entity at the transferor's (or parent's) carrying amounts with retrospective presentation for periods under common control. Pushdown accounting is an optional, irrevocable election by an acquiree to reflect the acquirer's new basis in its separate financial statements.
