October 24, 2014 at 8:27 am #205787What consolidated statements? You say that there are no subsidiaries. So why am I consolidating? And what am I consolidating?

October 28, 2014 at 7:57 am #206341It seems from your post that Alfred has been a subsidiary for only 2 months of the year. So time apportionment will apply to the Alfred figures when preparing the consolidated profit or loss account.
10 / 12 of the interest ($230) from Alfred will be included by Port as loan interest received.
2 / 12 of that interest ($46) will be cancelled against the time-apportioned Alfred results that show loan interest paid of $46 ($276 time apportioned)
Is that ok?
October 28, 2014 at 11:39 am #206385ok thanks and about this…

October 28, 2014 at 12:08 pm #206390nci doesn’t appear in the profit or loss! In my working W4B, the nci is interested in their share of this year’s subsidiary profit after tax. There is no goodwill impairment in the subsidiary’s profit or loss account so the allocation of the goodwill impairment to the nci is via changes in equity. But changes in equity will not be asked in a consolidation question in F7
November 24, 2015 at 8:18 pm #284990Because it was only the post-acquisition element that features in the consolidation calculations. It’s only the 46 post acquisition that needs to be cancelled out because before that the two entities were unrelated
OK?
February 10, 2017 at 8:56 am #371841Sir, in this question, the profit for the year of subsidiary is 96.
Do we need to adjust for the intra group loan interest in the profit of the subsidiary?
February 10, 2017 at 9:14 am #371842In so far as a statement of financial position is concerned, the cancellation of loan interest paid and received within the group is relevant only to the extent that there are amounts outstanding at the year end and included within liabilities and assets
For a statement of profit or loss question, the expense of intra-group interest and the corresponding income of intra-group interest is cancelled and thus, if there is no other loan interest payable or receivable from outside the group, there is no line item in the consolidated statement of profit or loss neither for the expense nor for the income
But this exercise of cancellation is purely for presentation purposes. The figure for the subsidiary’s results is not adjusted
How long did it take you to locate this thread? The last post on this was 15 months ago! In future it would be a big time-saving for you simply to open a new thread with an appropriate heading!
OK?
