Please help ASAP:
Which of the following is not an appropriate reason for leaving a subsidiary unconsolidated?

a. The subsidiary is in bankruptcy.
b. The subsidiary is to be sold in the near future.
c. A foreign government threatens to take over the assets of the subsidiary.
d. The subsidiary is in an industry that is significantly different than that of the parent.
e. The subsidiary is larger than the parent and therefore should be a standalone company.

I am not 100% sure but I picked (e) for my answer. Is there anyone out there that can confirm my answer is correct or not. Thanks

Wow! I cannot believe my eyes that no one is out there that does not have his/her own thoughts regarding this question. I figure that there would be more than zero out there that would be respond with confirmation of either that I was correct or I was totally off the track with my answer. I really am interested in knowing if someone else has come up with the same asnswer as I did or with a different one. Thanks!
