Chapter 5: Changes in group structure

Loss of control and a part-disposal

Chapter 5, Example 4. Socks owned 90% of Mogs before it decided to sell a 50% stake of its investment on 31 December 2015 for $120 million. The non-controlling interest at that date was $53 million and the fair value of the remaining 40% is $96 million. The goodwill on acquisition of the original 90% holding was $38 million and the net assets at the date of disposal were $201 million.
