    Most of those are similar to my paper. But I was asked to identify the acquirer of the business combination. For me, the hardest part was goodwill calculation. I’m assuming you got a note on Financial instrument for goodwill calculation. I couldn’t figure out how to calculate that correctly. What did you do with that one.

    I considered as amortised cost until mid year, then considered as FV through OCI at aquisition because the acquirer was not passing business model test (not sure about this treatment though). What about you?

    Did anyone have Q1 asking about proportionate and fair value NCI differences. Was the only diff in proportionate and fair value of the NCI the 0.1? That Q seemed straight forward which has me concerned

    I put 0 because Columbia Co directors stated their intent on discontinuing the brand rather than selling it to a rival.

    I did it the same way. I’m not sure whether my final answer will be correct or not, but I think I will get some marks for my explanation.

    Isn’t that related to IFRS 5- Non current asset held for sale and discontinued operations. I think the question talked about their intention to sell it in the next 12 months, and the probability of the sale happening.

    i think it should be 5 because as per IFRS 13 management intention is not relevant because fv is a market based measurement and therefore they would take the market use of the asset.

    Wrote 5 too, because fv is not entity specific measure
