Hello Mike!
I would like to check with you if my understanding is correct on consolidation adjustments in June’14 in regard to:
-elimination of revaluation of investment in Nathan ($5 mils). Is it eliminated because we report sub profits by consolidating them – so if we leave $5mils in parent’s profits it will be double count?
-elimination of gain on sale of 8% in Nathan ($5.3mils). No clear at all. I know we do not report profits in cons P&L when we move from 60% to 52%, but how this rule is applicable to parent’s P&L?I am struggling to understand a printed answers.

I hope you will find time to confirm/correct statements I have made above.June 7, 2015 at 4:30 pm #254830The $5 needs to be eliminated – it’s internally generated recovery in the goodwill figure and should not, therefore, be recognised
The $5.3 is not recognised because control is not lost – any gain is taken into account within the changes in parent’s equity – ie within the transfer between owners
Ok?
I have no idea how or why I missed your earlier post and for that I apologise
