Hi sir,
13500 cash consideration has been deducted from Financail asset 15800 (16000-200). I just wonder where 13500 came from.
I believe that it’s 9,000 shares acquired costing $1.50 each. This is the cash element of the consideration paid by Polestar when Polestar acquired 75% of the Southstar equity shares
OK?
Thank you , I ignored that P has recorded its investment in S at the cost of the immediate cash payment.
Well, really you should be asking yourself “Why has the examiner said that?” and then, maybe, you will find that you’re not ignoring important pieces of information!
