Equity Pickup - What Is EPU?

• Equity pickup is an accounting technique of reevaluating the investments owned by a holding company. The purpose of this reevaluation is to adjust the investments in the Balance Sheet of the holding company to reflect the current value of the corresponding share in the equity of the subsidiary.

• An equity pickup adjustment consists of replacing the historical cost by the actual value of the equity owned. In this respect, the equity pickup technique is similar to the equity method in statutory consolidation.

• Equity pickup adjustments are made in the local currency of the holding company, before any consolidation of this holding into the group. These adjustments belong to the holding company, independently from any ultimate parent entity.For each company owned, the adjustment can be expressed as follows:

EPU Adjustment amount = (Direct ownership percentage * Equity ofentity owned) - Investment


EPU - How to Access?

Tasks > Data Tasks > Manage Equity Pick Up


EPU - How to Execute?

Calculate > Run EPU


Phased Submission enhancements

• Start Year for Phased Submissions• Scenario attribute

• Supports “All” within submission group assignment


Matching tolerance as a % of transaction – ICT

• When specifying a matching tolerance for a period, a user can specify an amount, percentage or both for Transaction ID (TID) tolerance.

• The percentage is applied to the smaller of the entity or partner transaction.

• If both are input, the system will match on the smaller of the two values

• Data file now an “Aggregation Option”

• File extracted to HFM Server Working folder

• Automates "what if" analysis in spreadsheets with Monte Carlo simulations.


Crystal Ball: Benefits

• Monte Carlo simulations simplify financial data modeling of outputs when inputs fluctuate within a given range.

• It automates “what if” analysis for a larger number of scenarios to create useful predictive models.

Scenario B Assumptions

Price per unit changeCost of goods sold changeUnits sold change

Scenario A Assumptions

Price per unit changeCost of goods sold changeUnits sold change

Result 1

Result 2


What Crystal Ball brings to HSF

• A simple-to-use simulation tool• Ability to easily think and work in ranges• Eliminate manual multiple what-if scenarios• Replace best/worst case estimates with more accurate

range of all possible outcomes• Increased confidence in your numbers• Immediate insight on the key drivers and areas to focus

your attention• Better quality decisions


What Are Simulations?

• Process of experimenting with a model to measure performance and behavior of inputs in a system

• What are the Benefits?• Gain general insight into the nature of a process• Identify problems with system design • Manage risk by understanding costs and benefits


What Is Monte Carlo Simulation?

• A system that uses random numbers to measure the effects of uncertainty.

• A computer simulation of N (e.g. 10,000) trials where• Each trial samples input values from defined probability distribution

functions (PDFs)• Applies the input values to the model and records the output

• Outputs:• Prediction of Output Variation (Probability of Cost Overrun, Probability of

Exceeding Deadline)• Identification of Primary Variation Drivers (Sensitivity Analysis)


Sensitivity Analysis Results

Examine which few critical factors (X’s) in your analysis cause the predominance of variation in

the response variable of interest (Y)
