    Hi my DEAR Tutor, I have a question

    ————————————————————- Laimonas ——–Kristine
    ——————————————————————$’000——– $’000
    Non-current assets
    investment in Kristine————————————– 50
    other ————————————————————23——— 16
    Current assets————————————————- 36——— 64
    Total assets—————————————————–109——— 80
    $1 Equity shares———————————————– 60———- 20
    Retained earnings———————————————- 40———- 50
    Current liabilities————————————————– 9———— 10
    Total equity and liabilities ————————————–109———– 80

    Laimonas has proposed a dividend of $16,000 Kristine has proposed a dividend of $10,000 Both of the above were proposed before the year end, but not adjusted for. Laimonas acquired 90% of Kristine’s share capital 4 years ago when the balance on Kristine’s retained earnings was $30,000.
    The value of the nci shareholding at the date of acquisition was $5,500

    Net assets of Kristine——AD————–DR———–Post acquisition period
    SC——————————20000 ———-20000————nil
    RE——————————30000———–50000———–20000

    cost of invesment——–50000
    NCI at FV—————————-5500
    net identifiable asset————-(50000)
    goodwill——————————5500
    impairment(5500*80%)———–(4400)
    Revised goodwill———————1100

    GRE–38040
    RE of Laimonas-40000
    Share of Laimonas(20000*90%)-18000
    Impairment(4400*90%)——–3960
    Laimonas didivdend pay—-16000

    Kristines dividend pay is inside of 20000,that is why

    NCI at date—7060
    NCI at FV—-5500
    NCI share(20000*10%)-2000
    impairment(4400*10%)-440

    In your calculation why U have got NCI at DAte 6060 ?need explanation?
    Thanks in advance

    “RE——————————30000———–50000———–20000”

    This line in your post is incorrect – it takes no account of the dividend of $10,000 that has been proposed by Kristina so post acquisition RETAINED earnings are only $10,000 and not $20,000 as you have written

    “Kristines dividend pay is inside of 20000,that is why” – do you understand by this that the $20,000 HAS been accounted for? Because that would be incorrect – the question specifically states:

    “Both of the above were proposed before the year end, but not adjusted for”

    OK?
