Forums › Ask ACCA Tutor Forums › Ask the Tutor ACCA SBR Exams › Consolidation of Subs when held for sale
Please clarify whether a susidiary that was purchased exclusively for sale should be consolidated or not. The BPP textbook says it should be consolidated, but the March 2020 answer guide on Hummings Co says Quaver should not be consolidated. Thank you!
In P&L, 100% of profits shown on a single line as ‘discontinuance’.
In SFP I’m not sure the position is very clear in practice. I think you would show 100% of assets as single line ‘assets held for sale’ – similarly for liabilities, a single line ‘liabilities held for sale’.
Best to avoid the word ‘consolidate’ and write what I have above.
