معنی integrated foreign entity or a self-sustaining foreign entity

Question

Most countries specify the translation method to be used by a foreign subsidiary based on its business operations. For example, a foreign subsidiary’s business can be categorized as either an integrated foreign entity or a self-sustaining foreign entity. An integrated foreign entity is one that operates as an extension of the parent company, with cash flows and general business lines that are highly interrelated with those of the parent. A self-sustaining foreign entity is one that operates in the local economic environment independent of the parent company. The differentiation is important to the logic of translation. A foreign subsidiary should be valued principally in terms of the currency that is the basis of its economic viability.
