thanks Patrick
Glad that was helpful 👍
Hi can anyone help me on below.
Parent entity disposed during the year its fully owned subsidiary.
The investment value recorded in the parents book was 1,000 and disposed for 5,000. As at the date of disposal the Net asset of the subsidiary was 750.
So at the parents books the gain on disposal will be 4,000(5,000-1,000)which will be recorded under other income.
At consolidation level the gain will 4250(5,000-750).
How we should treat these both the gain in the consolidation.
Question for you: how come
the investment in sub didn’t equal the net assets (equity) of the subsidiary?
@@patrickbrayCPA due to profit or loss generated throughout
Unless I’m missing something why wouldn’t the parent recognize the sub’s earnings on a stand alone basis before the sale?
