    Hello Mike,
    I am having difficulties with the 2 additional information as below
    How was the accounting treatment for that 2 addtional information?

    Highveldt, a public listed company, acquired 75% of Samson’s ordinary shares on 1 April 20X4. Highveldt paid an
    immediate Rs.3·50 per share in cash and agreed to pay a further amount of Rs.108 million on 1 April 20X5.
    Highveldt’s cost of capital is 8% per annum. Highveldt has only recorded the cash consideration of Rs.3·50 per
    share.
    The summarised statements of financial position of the two companies at 31 March 20X5 are shown below:
    Highveldt Samson
    $million $million

    Tangible non-current assets (note (i)) 420 320
    Development costs (note (iv)) Nil 40
    Investments (note (ii)) 300 20
    Total NCA 720 380
    Current assets 133 91
    Total assets 853 471
    Equity and liabilities
    Ordinary shares of Rs.1 each 270 80
    Share premium 80 40
    Revaluation surplus 45 nil
    Retained earnings – 1 April 20X4 160 134
    -year to 31 March 20X5 190 76
    Total equity 745 330

    Non-current liabilities
    10% inter company loan (note (ii)) Nil 60
    Current liabilities 108 81
    Total equity and liabilities 853 471

    (ii) Included in Highveldt’s investments is a loan of Rs.60 million made to Samson at the date of acquisition.
    Interest is payable annually in arrears. Samson paid the interest due for the year on 31 March 20X5, but
    Highveldt did not receive this until after the year end. Highveldt has not accounted for the accrued
    interest from Samson.

    (iv) Samson’s development project was completed on 30 September 20X4 at a cost of Rs.50 million. Rs.10
    million of this had been amortised by 31 March 20X5. Development costs capitalised by Samson at the
    date of acquisition were Rs.18 million. Highveldt’s directors are of the opinion that Samson’s
    development costs do not meet the criteria in IAS 38 ‘Intangible Assets’ for recognition as an asset.

    “Included in Highveldt’s investments is a loan of Rs.60 million made to Samson at the date of acquisition. Interest is payable annually in arrears.

    Samson paid the interest due for the year on 31 March 20X5, but
    Highveldt did not receive this until after the year end.

    Highveldt has not accounted for the accrued interest from Samson.”

    H should have accounted for the interest and needs to make an adjustment now for the cash in transit as follows:

    Dr Cash $6 million
    Cr Loan interest income $6 million

    The loan interest income in Highveldt and the loan interest expense in Samson are now ignored when preparing the consolidated statement of profit or loss

    “Samson’s development project was completed on 30 September 20X4 at a cost of Rs.50 million. Rs.10 million of this had been amortised by 31 March 20X5.

    Development costs capitalised by Samson at the date of acquisition were Rs.18 million.

    Highveldt’s directors are of the opinion that Samson’s development costs do not meet the criteria in IAS 38 ‘Intangible Assets’ for recognition as an asset.”

    The intangible asset in samson recorded as Development Expenditure need to be written off as it fails to satisfy the definition

    The value as at date of acquisition needs to be adjusted in the goodwill calculation down to $zero

    You can calculate the amount that has been capitalised post-acquisition net of the amount amortised already this year and charge that to post acquisition earnings

    Is that ok for you?

    Cr Loan interest income $6 million

    For the credit side loan interest income, do we need to add the post acquisition earning for the samson’s profit 6 million?

    The interest income belongs to Highveldt, surely!

    okay I got it I have another difficulties with regards to preference share capital
    if the p co buy over s co 80% of the preference share capital
    is it we just treat it like intercompany debt? same treatment with like the p co buy the s co loan note?

    Will affect the goodwill and fair value of net asset of s co calculation?

    On the statement of financial position, the preference share figure will be just the 20% that is owned by the nci and there will be zero shown as the parent’s investment in the subsidiary preference shares

    Same with the finance cost in the subsidiary and the investment income in the parent – cancel one against the other and leave just the preference dividend paid / payable to the nci as the consolidated finance cost

    Is that means we CR Investment 80% of preference share figure
    DR Preference share capital for the 80% of the share figure
    so it will automatically cancelled each other and the balance 20% go to nci
    I would also like to ask if the preference dividend is accrued (have not been paid) and it shows as current liabilities in the sofp of s ltd and current asset in the p ltd
    so we need to minus preference dividend payable XXX at s ltd and minus at p ltd dividend receivable?
    and how was the consolidated income statement part
    if the preference dividend has not been paid when the question given does it will show the preference dividend paid in the finance cost of s co and investment income of p ltd?

    If the preference dividend/loan interest/ ordinary share dividend is already paid so it will not affect balance sheet? Am I correct?
    Unless its have not been paid?
    Sorry for keep asking a lot of questions

    That’s six separate questions in there!

    I now have to try to pick the bones out of this post – not easy!

    The cost of acquisition related to the preference shares is an additional element within the cost of acquisition section of working W2 Goodwill

    The NCI part of the preference share capital that is still owned by the nci is added on to the value of their investment in the equity shares and the preference shares themselves are part of the fair valued net assets as at date of acquisition

    “Is that means we CR Investment 80% of preference share figure
    DR Preference share capital for the 80% of the share figure
    so it will automatically cancelled each other and the balance 20% go to nci”

    If I have understood your understanding then, yes, correct

    “I would also like to ask if the preference dividend is accrued (have not been paid) and it shows as current liabilities in the sofp of s ltd and current asset in the p ltd
    so we need to minus preference dividend payable XXX at s ltd and minus at p ltd dividend receivable?”

    Agreed … and that would just leave the preference dividend payable to the nci as a current liability

    “and how was the consolidated income statement part if the preference dividend has not been paid when the question given does it will show the preference dividend paid in the finance cost of s co and investment income of p ltd?”

    Yes, but on consolidation we have to cancel the investment income (preference dividend received by the parent) against 80% of the preference dividend paid (in the finance costs of the subsidiary)

    “If the preference dividend/loan interest/ ordinary share dividend is already paid so it will not affect balance sheet? Am I correct?”

    Yes, correct

    “Unless its have not been paid?”

    Yes, correct

    I not really understand about this 2 part that you reply just now
    1) The cost of acquisition related to the preference shares is an additional element within the cost of acquisition section of working W2 Goodwill

    Do you mean
    Example:
    p ltd co has acquired 60% of the ordinary shares in s co with an immediate cash payment of $1000,000
    Addtional information
    the p co also purchase 80% of the preference share capital
    SOFP
    S Co
    Equity and Liabilities
    Equity share $1 800,000
    Preference share capital $1 100,000
    retained earning pre 50,000
    post 40,000

    Cost of Investment (COI) 1000,000
    60% of fair value of net asset of s co at doa
    {60% X ($800,000 share capital+$50,000 retained earning)} (510,000)
    Goodwill 490,000
    OR
    COI 1000,000
    60% of fair value of net asset of s co at doa (same as above) (510,000)
    PREFERENCE SHARE CAPITAL (80%X$100,000) (80,000)
    Goodwill 410,000
    OR
    do you mean the preference share capital that the p co bought is also part of the fair value of net asset of s co at doa?
    OR
    it is part of the cost of investment in acquiring the s co?

    2)The NCI part of the preference share capital that is still owned by the nci is added on to the value of their investment in the equity shares and the preference shares themselves are part of the fair valued net assets as at date of acquisition

    For this part that you mentioned preference shares themselves are part of the fair value net assets at doa . The word themselves means nci or parent?

    The preference shares are part of the fair value of the net assets and …

    … the cost of those preference shares is part of the cost of acquisition

    “For this part that you mentioned preference shares themselves are part of the fair value net assets at doa . The word themselves means nci or parent?”

    No – the word ‘themselves’ refers to the preference shares!

    Do you mean do it in this ways? because the company group control % is different with with purchase the preference share % so have to separately write

    It means that when we wanted to calculate the

    Question: p ltd co has acquired 60% of the ordinary shares in s co with an immediate cash payment of $1000,000. The fair value of nci is $600,000

    fair value of net asset of co at

    share capital 800,000 800,000

    Yes, but I wouldn’t show it that way …

    In working W2 I would have:

    Cost of equity investment 1,000,000
    Cost of preference investment 80,000
    Value of NCI 620,000
    Total 1,700,000

    Fair value of net assets
    800,000 + 100,000 + 50,000
    Total 950,000

    Goodwill 1,700,000 – 950,000 = 750,000

    I wouldn’t show the 490,000 / 260,000 figures because they have no importance

    The only figure of importance after the goodwill calculation is 750,000

    on the fact no matter preference share put into calculation of goodwill or not it will still get back the 750000?
    so is that means does not put in also can?
    or it must put in?

    You must do for the reason that the %age holdings for the preference shares are different than the %age holdings for the equity shares

    We need to eliminate the pup, net of depreciation, from the P retained earnings

    Dr P Retained earnings 2,700 (that’s 3,000 – 10% depreciation)
    Cr TNCA 2,700

    That adjustment in retained earnings is fully against P

    Does that do it for you?

    Because the subsidiary is charging depreciation on the false, inflated figure and, for the purposes of the consolidation, we need to know what the TNCA figure should be for the group

    We need to eliminate the $3,000 profit on the transfer but, after 1 year, 10% depreciation has been ‘realised’ so we need only eliminate $2,700 net unrealised profit

    Is that any better?
