    I have a MAJOR doubt about 1,620 receivable fro Gamma -= it shouldn’t appear within the consolidated statement of financial position at all. Please check your post and make sure that there is no dividend from Gamma included within the csofp

    As for 56,700 payable, that’s easy!

    It’s the whole of Alpha’s dividend and 20% of the Beta dividend. That 20% (2,700) is payable outside the group to the non-controlling interest shareholders

    OK?
