Recycling gains and losses

Aaccastudent6y ago
How will be the reclassification to SOPL from OCI occur? Suppose there's a gain on translation of foreign subsidiary in Other comp of equity that we need to reclassify on disposal of that subsidiary. Do we directly do: 1- Dr. OCE Cr. SOPL 2- Or through OCI Dr. OCI Cr. SOPL you can just answer 1 or 2 to save time. Thanks

Both journals are correct The exciting thing is that a gain or loss previously reported in OCI will now appear in the P&L directly impacting EPS
