    Kutchen had purchased an 80% interest in Niche for $40 million on 1 January 20X6 when the
    fair value of the identifiable net assets was $44 million. The partial goodwill method had been
    used to calculate goodwill and an impairment of $2 million had arisen in the year ended 31
    December 20X6. The holding in Niche was sold for $50 million on 31 December 20X6. The
    carrying amount of Niche’s identifiable net assets other than goodwill was $60 million at the
    date of sale. Kutchen had carried the investment in Niche at cost. The finance director
    calculated that a gain arose of $2 million on the sale of Niche in the group financial
    statements being the sale proceeds of $50 million less $48 million being their share of the
    identifiable net assets at the date of sale (80% of $60 million). This was credited to retained earnings

    In this scenario while calculating gain or loss on disposal they are not considering the value of NCI at disposal.could you please explain why?

    Gain on disposal

    Proceeds

    Less (NA + GW – NCI)

    So the Finance Director is wrong – if you calculate it using the above formula you will be right.
