    In the parent record according to the note,

    Dr Receivable
    Cr RE

    In the sub record,

    Dr RE
    Cr dividend payable
    But on the question , my biggest challenge is the 9 figure of the payable that was added to parent Current asset , as part of the adjustment and removed from the 10 from the payable of the subsidiary.

    Was the payable of 9 on the parent entity or another 9 from some where?

    The 9 is the dividend that the parent is to receive from the subsidiary

    The subsidiary has declared a dividend of 10 and the parent owns 90% of the subsidiary’s shares

    So now we are faced with the calculation “What is 90% of 10?”

    And there you have it!

    OK?
