Answer:

At times a parent may acquire a subsidiary's bond issue because the parent has superior credit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some intercompany transaction create a debtor- creditor relationship between the parent and subsidiary, because the subsidiary have the ability to borrow large amount of capital at more favourable terms.
