Sir,
When the parent(holding) acquire % from the subsidiary capital shares, How that ratio calculated ? from which of the following ? :
1) only its portion of the subsidiary shares market price .
2) or only its portion of the subsidiary shares par value .
3) or from the subsidiary net assets including the subsidiary reserves and retained earnings plus its capital .
Thanks
Par value!!
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
OK, thanks
You’re welcome
