    5, 6, 7 and 8 A is a subsidiary. So make the pup adjustment in the selling company and then calculate profits based on that newly adjusted figure

    1, 2, 3 and 4 A is an Associate. The easy way to deal with this is always to reduce the associate’s retained earnings by the full value of the pup and then, when you consolidate, you will bring in the group’s share of the associate adjusted profits after tax and that will automatically have satisfied IFRSIC3 saying that the group’s share of any pup arising on a transaction with an associate should be eliminated on consolidation

    The alternative way is to calculate the pup arising on the transaction with the associate and debit group retained earnings and credit investment in associate

    But method 1 is radically easier

    Hope that helps

    Can you tell the entries with amounts?
    How much amount would be allocated to subsidiaries in 5, 6, 7 & 8?

    We wouldn’t, in an exam situation, allocate pups to subsidiaries where an associate is involved

    Q5 Calculate the pup, reduce the parent’s retained earnings by the full amount of the pup.

    Q6 Calculate the pup, adjust in A (the sub-subsidiary S2), calculate the parent’s share of S2 post acquisition retained (54%) and that automatically has adjusted for the group’s share of any pup arising from a transaction involving the sub-subsidiary

    Q7 Calculate the pup, adjust in A (the sub-subsidiary S2), calculate the parent’s share of S2 post acquisition retained (54%) and that automatically has adjusted for the group’s share of any pup arising from a transaction involving the sub-subsidiary

    Q8 Calculate the pup, reduce the S’s retained earnings by the full amount of the pup. Proceed as normal

    Now, let me ask ……. why are you putting yourself (and me!) through this nightmare. This surely isn’t any past exam question and there are enough difficulties in those to keep you going well into the future!
