Sir in the question 25.1 - task 4 Why cannot option c be the answer ? 20% of swings retained earnings will be allocated to the non controlling interest?

The consolidated retained earnings are all of Swing's earnings (because Swing is the parent) plus 80% of Cat's earnings (because Cat is the subsidiary). The non-controlling interest is the 20% of Cat and it is 20% of Cat's earnings that are therefore allocated to the non-controlling interest.
