Am I not correct if I say that that 500 already in the statement of profit or loss for Viagem is ignored in the consolidation and in the consolidation the figure for “Share of Associate’s results” takes the full $800?

– for the purposes of calculating goodwill we look at the situation as at the date of acquisition and, as at that date of acquisition, there was a full year ahead of us before we would be face with making that payment on 31 December
Imagine that you promise today to pay on 25 May, 2017 an amount of $110 and that your cost of capital is 10%. At what figure would you record that “today” promise in your “today” calculations?
OK?
