I am sorry, but I still can’t get it.
Could you explain in my examples, please:
say, we have cost of an asset – 3,5m$ and AD (1.5m$)
we revalued the asset at 4m$
We have to do the following entries:
Dr AD 1.5m$ to remove the current AD
Cr Revaluation reserve 1.5$m
Dr Cost of asset 0.5m$ to change “cost” to the revalued amount
Cr Revaluation reserve 0.5$
Thus we have Cr balance 2m$ – is it going to SoFP ?
Do we have any profit in statement of Comprehensive income in that case ?
Is it possible to get any expense\loss in PL statement?
Thank you!
Teacher, thanks a lot!
There are so many “issues” and I’ve just forgotten about 3 posible cases, about nci fair value :
• goodwill attributable to the NCI on acquisition was $x, or
• the NCI investment was estimated at $x, or
• the market value of the subsidiary shares immediately before acquisition was $x
and of course it could be measured on proportional basis.
Thank you!
