I can’t seem to get the logic behind these two statements. I’d appreciate it if you can shed some light. 🙂
The process of consolidation results in a single legal entity No
NCI will always feature within the consolidated financial statements No
With regards to the second, while it’s highly probable this was one of those trick questions with the pesky ‘always’, is it possible they’re referring to scenarios in which there IS no NCI?
ie when the subsidiary is wholly owned by the parent?
Thank you in advance!

Thanks!

Yes it is substance over form.

You are welcome 🙂
