KABELO (SEP/DEC 2023)
Hello Sir,
Regarding if the subsidiary has a cash and cash equivalents within its net assets like in Kabelo example
Property, plant and equipment 421,000
Inventories 256,800
Trade receivables 220,300
Cash and cash equivalents 24,900
Trade payables (175,400)
–––––––
747,600
So in this case the cash is counted of the total net assets
and as the question required an adjustment of the cash flow
In invseting activities the cash of the susidiary has been dedecuted from the cash consideration amount
So it is used in two places the
1-net assets of subsidiary
2-and the Consideration of th acquisition in the cash from investing activities
will that be a double counting?
Please clarify.
Thanks.
Ask the Tutor ACCA SBR
Cash and cash equivalents of net assets of subsidiary
CFS is a LIST of cash flows. The line 'net assets' does not exist in CFS. All that we have is MONEY OUT when we pay the vendor of the subsidiary and MONEY IN if the subsidiary brings a cash balance in.
Please watch our CFS lectures where this is fully explained:
