IAS 28

Iila3y ago
Hi, I need help understanding the following statement: IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures do require that gains and losses arising between a parent entity and its joint venture should only be recognized to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interest in the joint venture normally entity share of associate will be considered for unrealized profits when selling or buying inventory, but what will be the case if the entity transfers a building in exchange for a share of equity interest in a joint venture or associate and there's an unrealized loss or profit on it, kindly explain with an example if possible with uneven holdings, ill be extremely grateful.

Use same principle as with profit on sale to associate,, You don't really need any more detail for this exam. If you are thinking outside the exam, following link may be useful, but no promises! https://ifrscommunity.com/knowledge-base/equity-method/#:~:text=Fortunately%2C%20IAS%2028%20is%20more%20specific%20when%20it,has%2020%25%20interest%20in%20Company%20A%2C%20its%20associate.
