Should we somehow consider ‘our’ portion (1/6) of current liabilities?
olkhova says
Sorry, forgot to mention, in equity method.
MikeLittle says
@olkhova, I do believe that in fact we DO – our share is the share of net assets, not just assets. And there’s now of course no need to specify that we are using the equity method, since that is now the ONLY method allowed. Proportional consolidation of joint ventures has been removed as the benchmark treatment and now the equity method has become the only method ( instead of being the allowed alternative )
I’ve also amended my way of calculating W5A Investment in Associate. I now tackle it in the same way as I do for a nci in a consolidation – because we ARE the nci in an Associate.
So now it’s:-
Value at date of acquisition ( or when it became an associate through part disposal of a subsidiary ), plus
Share of post-acq retained, less
Any impairment
Is that ok?
olkhova says
@MikeLittle, Many thanks for your clarification!

Dear Admin,

Could you help fix the problem?
Thanks.

In calculating the W3( consolidated retained earnings, can you explain how the pre-acquisition profit was calculated as £20000
sheriffdeen says
@7suleo11,
To get 20,000, he deducted 80,000 share capital from total pre-acquisiton net assets of 100,000. Since, Net Asset is the addition of Share Capital and Retain Earning.
Hope I got u question right!
