In CH. 25 Example 4, is the double-entry for unrealised profits as below?
Cost of sales Dr. 1mn Investment in associate Cr. 1mn
Helvellyn acquired 25% of the equity shares of Armboth on 1 June 2020. The year-ended is 31 December 2020 so there are 7 months in between. But in the answer, it is only 6 months?
Then why is the answer as below?
Associate (25% x (200 x 6/12)) – 1 (PUP) – 1 (impairment)
Shouldn’t it be,
Cost of sales – 1 (PUP) and Associate (25% x (200 x 7/12)) – 1(impairment) in the Consolidated statement of profit or loss?
It would be of great help if you could help me out with the questions above.
