    I have a question:

    If an entity borrows money from a related company to acquire a subsidiary. Can the costs be capitalised?

    Or i borrowed money from a third party?

    Now: if athe company X acquired company Y ( subsidiary) where company Y has an investment property. Can company X capitalise expenses occured to its asset (subsidiary) for the investment property?

    Hi,

    If you mean interest/borrowing costs as the costs capitalised then no they cannot be capitalised. The borrowing costs can only be capitalised if the funds are used for a qualifying asset and the acquisition is not a qualifying asset. This is the case too even if the borrowings are from a third party.

    Thanks
