Answer:

Company Pea

Consolidated financial statements should be prepared to report the financial status and results of operations for:

Essone - 90%

Esstwo = 72% (90% x 80%)

Essthree = 72% (90% x 80% x 100%)

Explanation:

Company Pea is described as the holding or parent company of Company Essone. This means that Essone is Company Pea's subsidiary. In preparing consolidated financial statements to report the financial status and results of operations for Company Essone, Company Pea will consolidate 100% of Company Essone while accounting for noncontrolling interest of 10% (effectively 90%).

When Company Essone is consolidating its financial statements, it should consolidate 80% of Company Esstwo while Esstwo consolidates 100% of Company Essthree.

But since Essthree is also a subsidiary of Company Pea, Company Pea will consolidate Esstwo and Essthree's financials to the tune of 72% respectively, while consolidating 90% of Essone's.
