Step-by-step solution
8 stepsHere is the consolidated statement of financial position for Ghana Ltd group as at 31 December 2013. All figures are in GH¢'m.
Calculate Goodwill at Acquisition
-
Consideration transferred (Ghana's investment): GH¢24,000
-
Non-controlling interest (NCI) at acquisition (fair value): GH¢5,000 (given in e)
-
Total consideration: GH¢24,000 + GH¢5,000 = GH¢29,000
-
Fair value of identifiable net assets of Togo at acquisition (1 Jan 2011):
- Stated Capital: GH¢10,000
- Retained Earnings: GH¢11,600 (given in a)
- Fair value adjustment for plant: GH¢1,000 (given in b)
- Total Fair Value of Net Assets: GH¢10,000 + GH¢11,600 + GH¢1,000 = GH¢22,600
-
Goodwill at acquisition: GH¢29,000 - GH¢22,600 = GH¢6,400
-
Adjust for Fair Value of Plant and Depreciation
- Fair value adjustment on plant: GH¢1,000
- Useful life: 10 years
- Annual depreciation on fair value adjustment: GH¢1,000 / 10 = GH¢100
- Period from acquisition (1 Jan 2011) to reporting date (31 Dec 2013): 3 years
- Total accumulated depreciation on fair value adjustment: GH¢100 3 = GH¢300
- Net carrying amount of fair value adjustment at 31 Dec 2013: GH¢1,000 - GH¢300 = GH¢700
Adjust for Unrealized Profit in Inventory
- Ghana sells goods to Togo at a markup of 25%. This means the profit margin on selling price is .
- Goods sold by Ghana to Togo in 2013: GH¢3,000 (given in d)
- One-third of these goods are still in Togo's inventory:
- Unrealized profit in closing inventory:
Adjust for Inter-company Balances and Cash in Transit
- Togo's payable to Ghana: GH¢1,100 (given in c)
- Ghana's receivable from Togo: GH¢1,500 (given in c)
- Difference (cash in transit): GH¢1,500 - GH¢1,100 = GH¢400
- Consolidation adjustments:
- Eliminate GH¢1,100 from Trade Receivables and Trade Payables.
- Add GH¢400 to Cash and Cash Equivalents.
- Reduce Trade Receivables by GH¢400 (as it's no longer a receivable but cash in transit).
Calculate Goodwill at Reporting Date
- Goodwill at acquisition: GH¢6,400 (from Step 1)
- Impairment loss: GH¢2,000 (given in f)
- Goodwill at reporting date: GH¢6,400 - GH¢2,000 = GH¢4,400
Calculate Non-Controlling Interest (NCI) at Reporting Date
- NCI at acquisition: GH¢5,000
- Togo's post-acquisition retained earnings: GH¢15,800 (RE at 31/12/13) - GH¢11,600 (RE at 01/01/11) = GH¢4,200
- NCI share of post-acquisition retained earnings:
- NCI share of fair value depreciation: (reduction)
- NCI share of goodwill impairment: (reduction)
- NCI at reporting date: GH¢5,000 + GH¢840 - GH¢60 - GH¢400 = GH¢5,380
Calculate Consolidated Retained Earnings
- Ghana's retained earnings: GH¢25,200
- Ghana's share of Togo's post-acquisition retained earnings:
- Ghana's share of fair value depreciation: (reduction)
- Unrealized profit in inventory: GH¢200 (reduction, fully attributable to parent)
- Ghana's share of goodwill impairment: (reduction)
- Consolidated Retained Earnings: GH¢25,200 + GH¢3,360 - GH¢240 - GH¢200 - GH¢1,600 = GH¢26,520
