    Hi Sir,

    Please let me know if following statement is correct:-

    The effect of investment in subsidiary on standalone FS of Parent co. will be as per equity method:-

    1) Profit/Loss share of Parent in the Profit/Loss of subsidiary = SOPL effect
    2) Investment in Subsidiary = SOFP effect

    Yes, the equity method is an accounting option for investments in subsidiaries (as well as joint ventures and associates) in a parent’s separate financial statements. Subsidiaries may alternatively be carried at cost or at fair value in accordance with IFRS 9.
