The share of the associate's profits after tax are the only element that go into the consolidated statement of income.
By taking the entire adjustment into the associate statement of income and then only taking the group's share of that adjusted profit after tax, we automatically remove or add the appropriate value
I believe that Kaplan (and BPP?) tackle the issue a different way
