Sir, if a company owns 80% of another company, (provided that they have inter-firm transactions) then when we are doing consolidated balance sheet, before working for the adjustment (inter-firm transactions)should we add only 80% of the receivables and payables of subsidiary or 100%?
You show 100% of all assets and liabilities.
I do suggest you watch my free lectures on group accounts (the lectures are a complete free course and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well).

Hi
The book is written if sale is made from Parent to Subsidary so there is no unrealised profit attributable to NCI.And there is an exercise – Jessica Co acquire 75% of Patpost Co and sell goods to Patpost and 50% is remain in inventory.
And why the answer they deduct unrealised profit from NCI???
It is true that if a sale is made from the parent to the subsidiary, then the unrealised profit is not attributable to the NCI – it is subtracted from the inventory and from the retained earnings of the group. This is dealt with in our free lectures (the lectures are a complete free course for Paper F3 and cover everything needed to pass the exam well.
I have no idea why it is been subtracted from the NCI in your exercise – if you have copied the details correctly then it seems there is a mistake, but I cannot be sure without seeing the whole question and answer.
