At consolidated level, the dividend from associate is reduced the investment in associate under the equity method by debiting dividend income (i.e. dividend received from associate is eliminated) and crediting the investment in associate (i.e. reduction of the investment in associate).

The corridor approach was for previous standards of IAS 19 (employee benefit). No such approach in the revised IAS 19 in 2011.

If the amount of impairment > the CV amount of Goodwill, "percentage" or "actual figure" is now not relevant. The whole amount of the goodwill will be written off. Therefore, notional goodwill amount must be adjusted.

As the share capital accounts is valued at @ $1 each as per the question, the premium is booked as other components of equity (similar to the concept of share premium accounts).

    In jun 15 Q1-kutchen The answer use the expect value (5m shares x $2 x 20%) as contingent consideration. It let me confuse whether to consider the probability to fulfil the specified future conditions are met

They are referring two different things. The answer refers to the calculation of expected value. The probability of outcome refers to the future occurrence of the event or not. For the application of this case, we are not required to consider the possibility of the event will happen or not. Contingent consideration is required to provide based on the expected value. i.e. (5m shares X $2 X 20%) + (0 X 80%).

But in NCI working using the NCI % share of A & B ltd's net assets at date of consolidation.(it likely a partial goodwill)

Reply: Time : 23 April 2017 18:27

+ the share of NCI's Goodwill as well. Therefore, it is not a partial goodwill method. It is only a matter of presentation of NCI. ( you may refer to illustration 12 of lecture note dated 3 Feb)

Cults is required to record the mgt. fee by debiting the retained profits ( ie reduce the net assets) and crediting the liabilities.
