Hi Mike, I understand this but does this affect any other workings? I’m struggling with this question in particular.

Debentures———————————-50,000===========20,000
Current liabilities—————————-27,800==========11,700
Total Equity and Liabilities————–989,300=========532,700The following information is relevant:
1. Henman bought 75% of the equity shares and 40% of the preference shares of Murray Ltd at par on 1st July 2001 for £250,000 when the latter’s retained profits stood at £150,000.
2. On the date of acquisition, the fair value of Murray’s buildings was £50,000 greater than the book value. At that date the buildings had a remaining life of 40 years.
3. The non-controlling interest is to be valued at the fair value of £106,000 as at 1st July 2001
4. Trading between the two companies was rife, and during 2003 Henman had purchased goods from Murray ltd for £60,000. Of this, half was in stock at the balance sheet date. Murray had generated a 150% mark up on cost on these goods. Included in Henman’s trade payables is a balance of £3,000 due to Murray. However there is cash in transit at the year-end of £500, and Murray’s trade receivables includes £3,500 in relation to this debt.
5. Goodwill has been reviewed and is not considered to be impaired.
Required: Prepare the statement of financial position of Henman ltd at 30 June 2003.
This is my working so far but I cannot get the correct answer.

Retained profit—150000=======351000

Depreciation==================(2500)
Unrealised profit==============18000
Preference Shares-50000=======50000
Total——————350000======566500Difference = 216500
Goodwill (THIS IS CORRECT)
FV invested by parent 250000
NCI @ acq 106000
Less net assets @ acq (350000)
Goodwill @ reporting 6000NCI @ reporting (INCORRECT)
NCI@ acq 106000
Share of difference 54125
(.25*216500)
NCI @ reporting 160125Please can someone explain where I went wrong, this is the only method I know. Apologies for the formatting it looks normal till I press submit!
