Hello Sir,
Q1
“Immediately after the acquisition, Square issued $4 million of 11% loan notes, $2·5 million of which were
bought by Pyramid. All interest due on the loan notes as at 31 March 2012 has been paid and received.”
why the answer does not account for the loan note interest received by the parent company’ s retained earning, which should be deducted?
Thank you.
Hi,
If the interest has been paid and received then it has already been accounted for within the accounts, and hence no requirement to adjust. All that you need to adjust for is the intra-group asset (investment) and liability (loan notes).
Thanks
