Why might the data for an entity in the FCCS_Entity Input member be different than the data in the FCCS_Proportion member?

In this scenario, the correct reason for the potential discrepancy between the data for an entity in the FCCS_Entity Input member and the data in the FCCS_Proportion member is related to intercompany eliminations. Intercompany eliminations occur when transactions between entities within a consolidated group are removed from the consolidated financial statements to avoid overstating revenues or expenses. If an intercompany transaction exists, and it has been eliminated, the financial data for that entity may change, leading to differences in what is recorded in the FCCS_Entity Input compared to the FCCS_Proportion.

Intercompany eliminations specifically affect how data is reported, as they can adjust the reported figures for specific entities. Consequently, this could lead to a situation where the direct inputs for an entity do not align with how those inputs are proportioned or reflected in the consolidated context, resulting in disparities between the two members.

The other options address different aspects of data handling within the consolidation and close process, but they do not directly relate to the concept of how intercompany transactions and their elimination impact reported financial figures. For example, a rate override can adjust certain calculations, but it does not inherently create a discrepancy based on proportions. Similarly, ownership percentages and currency differences may affect the
