It's a very rare occurrence that the parent will buy either preference shares or loan notes on acquisition If it happens, then the amount paid for the preference shares or loan notes is added to the amount paid for the equity shares together with the value of the nci and from that increased figure you will take the fair value of the net assets (as represented by shareholders' funds) as well as the fair value of the loan notes or preference shares But it's not going to happen!
