    Why is the loss on fair value of investment in equity instrument pro-rated for inclusion in the consolidated statement of profit or loss .

    It will state in the question that the gains/losses arise evenly over the year unless told otherwise. If we’re not told otherwise, which is likely the case here, then we pro-rate it.

    But the loss on fair value of investment in equity instrument seems to be a capital loss and not revenue loss which seems to occur at a point in time like revaluation surplus and not over the year so how could it be pro-rated

    Agree but just follow as instructed in the question.
