  1. wonderful

  2. Thanks for your lecture. But I have some quries . For example, If a partnership company start incorporate a new Ltd company with current partners and employees , do we need to prepare consolidated statement?

  3. sorry retraction .I now understand ma mistake

  4. thank you Mike.Then in example 1 for group acounts why are we not consolidating the recivables ,cash ,inventory for the parent and subsidiary because we only considered the parents figures.Or is that we add both after incoporation.I thought invery would be (8+4),cash (4-3)+1and Receivables(6+2).

  5. i want to know that if preparing the interim statement if you are using the half year results of the subsidiary then for the parent company which results do you use .Is it also the half year results or the whole year.

  6. very good lecture

  7. What happens with the remaining 25% of the profit/revenue/assets.

    That is quite material to the group?

  8. For situaion of holding less than 1/2—-does the parent still prepare consolidated statements?

    • @nigs001, Only if they have ( effective ) control.

      Control is the key so, even though the parent may own MORE than half the votes, if they no longer have control ( eg the subsidiary is in liquidation and therefore the liquidator controls it ) then the parent will not consolidate.

      Under the new IFRSs, where a parent has effective control, then they should consolidate. So, if the parent owns say 40% of the voting power of the subsidiary and the remaining 60% is spread out over many other shareholders, then the parent has effective control.

      Steve Scott is not likely to ask this in a numerical part of question 1 but could ask it within the ( say ) 5 mark written part b

  9. I don’t get the $2,600 part. Where is it from?
