  1. Sir Whats do you mean by “less our share of goodwill w3b on disposal”
    not the whole GW
    in my understanding
    (eg our 80% nci 20% and GW 1000) then share of GW is 800 our share?

    • @omerchamp, yes, unless it’s proportionally valued nci in which case our share is 1,000.

      In addition, if we’re selling from subsidiary down to associate or lower, the goodwill is all the goodwill attributable to us.

      If we’re selling some shares but keeping a subsidiary ( eg 80% down to 60% ) the goodwill calculation is the proportion of the goodwill which we are selling – so 20 out of the 80. And even then, if nci is proportional, then NO goodwill will be transferred on the part disposal

  3. Hi Mike where di the 15K tax come from? thanks

  4. this c/f and b/f thingie is quiet confusing specially in working 3 (retaing earning)

    • @affera, Oh yes, I agree! The concept of an abbreviation for something as complicated as “brought forward” and “carried forward” must be extremely confusing. Thank Heavens that you’re P2 students and some of you can actually manage to cope with such difficult concepts.

      For those of you who struggle, may I suggest you move to the advanced lectures in the early part of F3 studies where the use of these abbreviations are explained?

  5. Hi tobiholloway,
    The 175 is from calculating the NCI share of net assets form W2 Net assets =700×25% = 175.

  6. pls where did we get the 175 on disposal of nci in the statement of changies in equity

  7. Thanks Mike. We really appreciates
