    Hi Sir,
    Thanks for the great job you are doing. I have question to ask on consolidation.
    If P co owns 80% share in S co and S co in turn owns 60% share in A co. In consolidation of the account for P co, what accounts will be the basis? Will it be the individual accounts of P co, S co and A co OR it will be the individual account of P co on one hand and the consolidated account of S co on the other?

    In the exam, we do the “one-stage” consolidation – that is we consolidate P with S and A

    But in practice, S too must prepare consolidated accounts for the S Group (S with A)

    So in consolidating P S A, do we treat A as Associate of P or as Subsidiary of P taking into account P do not directly own A?

    This is NOT an F7 topic – it’s P2!

    Briefly – it’s a subsidiary – but I’m saying no more simply because it IS a P2 topic
