There’s no question in your post!
Please identify exactly what it is that you are unsure about
November 29, 2015 at 7:25 am #286054wat will be the amounts coming under movements?
if adjustment is
at acq. movement. yr end.
ppe. 50000. 5000. 45000
invent. ( 20000) ?November 29, 2015 at 9:43 am #286089Ah! You’re using the Kaplan style of calculating post-acquisition profits!
What’s the matter with:
(20,000), 20,000, nil
?
I still maintain that my method is easier!
November 29, 2015 at 11:40 am #286111this is from bpp
50000 min 20000=30000 goes to goodwilland (5000) + 20000 =15000 goes to retained earnings.
my doubt is .it should be (5000)+(20000) =25000 which has to be taken to retained earnings under spiro.?
November 29, 2015 at 9:57 pm #286225My answer appears to tie in with Kaplan!
