    Ok, The Par value is used, when we calculate the investment account, But for the Goodwill and Non Control Interest calculation, will be according tho the net assets , or according to the shares purchased ratio ?
    For example :
    – the goodwill = the amount paid – (minus) ? (which of the three choices)
    – NCI = their ratio % × ? (which of the three choices)
    Thanks

    This is covered fully in the video lectures.

    There’s no way that I’m writing out the lecture – you’ll have to watch it for yourself and then come back to me if you are still stuck
