P acquired 75 per cent of the 50 000 shares in S on 1 January 20X7 when S had retained earnings of
$15 000. The market price of S’s shares just before the date of acquisition was $1.60. P values the noncontrolling
interest at fair value. Goodwill is not impaired.
The statements of financial position of P and S at 31 December 20X7 were as follows:

22 500July 21, 2018 at 8:37 pm #464179Hi,
The two numbers relate to the share of the net assets at acquisition belonging to the parent and NCI. The net assets have been calculated from S’s share capital (50,000) plus the retained earnings at acquisition (15,000). They have then taken the parent’s share (75%) and the NCI share (25%).
If I were answering the question then I wouldn’t have structured my answer as it has been done above.
Thanks
