    Hello! for Associates,

    If losses made are in excess of investment, you should discontinue recognizing the share of further losses.

    And you should recognize the excess losses as a liability only if the entity has a legal/ constructive obligation.

    Lets say,
    total loss= 800
    investment in Assoc= 600
    excess= 200

    if theres no obligation
    DR SOPL 600
    CR investment in A 600

    if there is an obligation
    DR SOPL 800
    CR Investment in A 600
    CR Liability 200

    is this correct?
