    Dear Tutor,

    Please help me understanding where I make mistake.

    At this question my answer was: 3,300,000. Why the correct answer is: NIL

    In the situation where a sole investment of a public company is its 30% interest in another company representing a significant influence in that other company, what is the value of “Investment in associate” to be shown in the consolidated financial statements?
    The cost o investment was 3m and the post acqn retained earnings of the associate were 1m. there was no impairment on the value of investment.

    Thank you

    We don’t prepare consolidated accounts unless we have a subsidiary and the question says that it’s a “sole investment”

    Ok?
