Hi Mr. MikeLittle Can you let me clear this question? You have recently answered this question and said that for the initial recognition we can add transaction cost. but it was added to the amount which will be shown in BS. 195000+2000=197000 why? On 1 January 20X3 Wincarnis purchased 30,000 $1 shares in a listed entity for $5 per share. Transaction costs were $2,000 and Wincarnis elected to recognise the shares at fair value through other comprehensive income. At the year end of 31 December 20X3 the shares were trading at $6.50. At what amount will the shares be recognised in the statement of financial position of Wincarnis at 31 December 20X3?
