For goodwill how we'll find pre acquisition retained earnings? In solution retained earnings finds like this (4500-(3900*4/12)) In which I didn't understand from where 3900 has come?

Hi, Is the 3,900 not the profit for the year that is then pro-rated for the four months we have controlled the subsidiary before it is then deducted from the retained earnings at the reporting date. Thanks
