    If the question is asking for a consolidated statement of profit or loss then there’s no “fair value of nci at date of acquisition” to worry about

    It the question is asking for a consolidated statement of financial position then to arrive at the nci figure we need to take:

    Fair value of nci at date of acquisition +
    Nci share of subsidiary post-acquisition retained earnings –
    The nci share of goodwill impaired since acquisition

    Ok?

    there were two example from BPP’s revision kit. no.28 require SOPL, so they did not calculate fair value of NCI but for no.29 require SOPL and SOFP, therefore we need to include the fair value of NCI too ?

    Do you mean “subsid’s impairment” or do you mean the nci share of the impairment?

    In working W2 Goodwill, calculate the goodwill, calculate any impairment (if given as a percentage) and deduct in full from the goodwill

    But we may need to allocate that goodwill between “our share” and the nci

    This is necessary only if the nci is on a full, fair value basis. If nci is proportional, then no impairment is allocated to the nci

    Ok?

    however. base on past year questions :Bycomb and Plastik. Bycomb’s subsi’s goodwill impairment had minus off from the working of Goodwill Acquisition Statement. but Plastik does not minus off but instead, they minus of from Retained Earning and NCI.

    BPP’s question minus the goodwill impairment from the Goodwill Acquisition Statement , RE and NCI.

    The whole of accounting depends upon DOUBLE ENTRY!

    When it was debited to retained earnings and the nci, where do you imagine the credit entry was? To Goodwill!
