    Hi

    I don’t recognise the question ( name ) – is it in BPP material or FTCK ( or somewhere else?

    Are we meant to be finding the present value or the carrying value for the Stat of Fin Pos?

    Ok this is the question:-

    Baggs was aquired last yr 80% sub.

    Cost of invest – $100m being the amt of cash that will be paid 2yrs after the date of acq.
    Share cap & reserves $30m each at acq. date.
    Baggs reported income of $20m.
    No account was taken of fair valu adj. The following info is relevant at date of acq.

    1) Interest Rates were 5%
    2) Non current assets book value of $15m at acq. and remaining life of 10yrs had a market value of $20m.
    3) Baggs had a 2 yr 6% fixed rate loan of $20m
    4) Inventory had a fair value of $5m more than carrying value.

    The parent has group reserves at year end of $400m. Recoverable amt of Baggs is $120m at year end.

    Required
    Calculate Goodwill,Non Controlling Interest in net assets & Group Reseves.

    I dont understand the treatment of the Loan

    I hope you can help.

    Thanks in advance

    I think 5% has nothing to do with the loan – it was given to calculate the present value paid for sub.
    You should have BS and you are expected to check if loan is recorded correctly (split between liabilities <1 year and >1 year).
    Of course, if it was a loan between sub and parent it should be cancelled at consolidation.
