Variable Interest Entities and Noncontrolling Interests
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was party to eleven and eight joint ventures, respectively, for the purpose of land development and homebuilding activities which we have determined to be VIEs. The Company, as the managing member, has the power to direct the activities of the VIEs since it manages the daily operations and has exposure to the risks and rewards of the VIEs, based upon the allocation of income and loss per the respective joint venture agreements. Therefore, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the joint ventures, and the VIEs were consolidated as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
As of March 31, 2016, the assets of the consolidated VIEs totaled $226.7 million, of which $5.1 million was cash and cash equivalents and $220.2 million was real estate inventories. The liabilities of the consolidated VIEs totaled $127.1 million, primarily comprised of notes payable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
As of December 31, 2015, the assets of the consolidated VIEs totaled $155.0 million, of which $2.8 million was cash and cash equivalents and $148.6 million was real estate inventories. The liabilities of the consolidated VIEs totaled $97.1 million, primarily comprised of notes payable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
