    Sir,

    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.

    Thank you

    Hi,

    The treatment of the PUP is correct but you are right with regards to the number of months.

    Thanks
