Profit attributable to NCI

SSalvatore10y ago
Hi, I am just trying to recap what are the items I would need to deduct/add from a subsidiary profit for the year before I apply the % of non-controlling interest so to determine what is the profit attributable to NCI: -unrealized profit for sales from subsidiaries to parent. -unrealized profit for non-current assets sales from subsidiay to parent. -Depreciation for assets held by the subsidiary valued at fair value for consolidation purposes. -goodwill impairement. - canceled financial income/expenses for infa-group loan notes. something else? thank you Regards, S.

To arrive at this year's subsidiary profit in order to find the basis from which to calculate the nci's share ...... I would not treat goodwill within that working ( though I can't justify that comment - it's just that I would charge the nci with their share of any goodwill impairment as a separate consideration) The intra-group loan interest would not be adjusted in getting to the profit figure to be apportioned. The omission of that finance income / finance expense is a cosmetic adjustment to ensure that we don't include intra-group activity within the consolidation. But it doesn't affect the nci profit share Other than those two points, you should be fine
