Hi Mike,
I got all other figures except:
I am unsure what to do with dividend (8)?
Also Please explain composition of the nci investment valuation 76,800,000?
Question 5 Panda & Sloth
On 1 May, 2009 Panda purchased 80% of Sloth’s 120 million $1 equity shares. The acquisition was through a share exchange of three shares
in Panda for every five shares in Sloth. The market prices of shares in Panda and Sloth at 1 May, 2009 were $6 and $3.20 respectively.

Profit/ (loss) for the year ended 31 October, 2009 Dividend for year end 31 October, 2009
Panda Sloth

The fair values of Sloth’s net assets at date of acquisition were equal to their carrying amounts with the exception of an item of plant which had a carrying value of $12 million and a fair value of $17 million.
In addition, Sloth owns, but has not previously recognised, a domain name with a value of $20 million Panda has credited the whole of the dividend it received from Sloth to investment income.
The non-controlling interest in Sloth is to be valued at fair value as at date of acquisition. For this purpose, the Sloth share price at that dateMini Exercises – Questions
can be taken to be indicative of the fair value of the non-controlling interest’s investment. The goodwill in Sloth has not suffered any impairmentThanks Mike

The only effect that the dividend has is on the Consolidated Retained Earnings in working W3. We’re not asked for working W3!
