Module 3 Chapter 12: Consolidation: non-controlling interest


Review questions

1. What is meant by the term ‘non-controlling interest’ (NCI)? (LO1)

NCI is the term used for the ownership interest in a subsidiary other than the parent.

It is defined in AASB 127/IAS 27 as:

 The equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent.

2. Explain whether the NCI is better classified as debt or equity. (LO1)

The main argument for the NCI being classified as equity is that it better fits the definition of equity. The
subsidiary has no present obligation in relation the NCI so the NCI does not meet the definition of a
liability.

Some writers argue that NCI should be disclosed separately from equity an liabilities – the “mezzanine”
treatment. This argument relates to the utility of financial statements in relation to the user group, the
parent shareholders. It is argued that this form of presentation provides more relevant information to
the parent shareholders.

3. Explain whether the NCI is entitled to a share of subsidiary equity or some other amount.
(LO1)

If the NCI is classified as equity, it is entitled to a share of consolidated equity. Note that consolidated
equity is basically subsidiary equity adjusted for the effects of intragroup transactions – that is, realised
subsidiary equity.

If it were classified as a liability of the subsidiary then the calculation of the NCI would be based on the
obligation held by the subsidiary.

4. How does the existence of an NCI affect the business combination valuation entries? (LO2)
There is no effect. However if the full goodwill method is used, the recognition of the subsidiary’s
goodwill is made via a BCVR entry. In contrast, where the partial goodwill method is used, goodwill is
recognised in the pre-acquisition entry.

Why? The BCVR entries, apart from that for goodwill, are prepared because of the requirement of AASB
3/IFRS 3 to show the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at fair value. The determination of
fair value is not affected by the parent’s ownership in the subsidiary.

5. How does the existence of an NCI affect the pre-acquisition entries? (LO2)

The pre-acquisition entry eliminates the investment account recorded by the parent and the pre-
acquisition equity of the subsidiary, as well as recognising any gain on bargain purchase.

The consideration transferred reflects the amount paid by the parent for its share of the equity of the
subsidiary. The first effect then on the pre-acquisition entry is that the equity eliminated is only the
parent’s share. The second effect is that the gain on bargain purchase recognised is only that relating to
the parent’s share of the equity of the subsidiary.

6. Why is it necessary to change the format of the worksheet where a NCI exists in the group?
(LO2)
The AASB require the disclosure of the equity of the group, as well as the relative proportions of the
parent and the subsidiary. For a wholly owned subsidiary situation, the final column in the worksheet
represents the group position which is also the parent’s position, as there is no NCI. Where an NCI exists,
having determined the group position, the equity must be divided into parent share and the NCI share.
Hence, the worksheet must have additional columns to divide the group equity into the relative shares
of the parent and the NCI. This is done by calculating the NCI share and subtracting it from the group
equity so that the final column is then the parent entity’s share.

7. Explain how the adjustment for intragroup transactions affects the calculation of the NCI
share of equity.

The NCI does not affect the adjustment itself, as the full effects of the intragroup transaction are
adjusted for on consolidation. However, where the subsidiary records profit which is unrealised to the
group, this affects the calculation of the NCI. The NCI is entitled only to a share of consolidated equity
rather than subsidiary equity. Hence, where the subsidiary has recorded unrealised profit, the NCI share
of the recorded profit of the group must be adjusted for any of that profit which is unrealised. In the
Step 2 & Step 3 calculations of the NCI share of equity, this is a share of recorded equity. As adjustments
are made for intragroup transactions, where these transactions reflect adjustments for unrealised
subsidiary profit, an adjustment is also made to the NCI share of profit. The net result is then that the
NCI gets a share of realised subsidiary equity.

8. Explain whether an NCI adjustment needs to be made for all intragroup transactions. (LO4)

An NCI adjustment does NOT need to be made for all intragroup transactions.

An NCI adjustment only needs to be made where the adjustment is for unrealised profit recorded by the
subsidiary. Hence the transaction must be an upstream – subsidiary to parent – transaction in order for
an NCI adjustment to be made. Further the upstream transaction must relate to unrealised subsidiary
profit.

Question 12.4

Full goodwill method, multiple years

On 1 July 2019, Huntsman Ltd acquired 90% the issued shares of Spider Ltd for $140 300. At this date
the equity of Spider Ltd consisted of $100 000 share capital and $50 000 retained earnings. All the
identifiable assets and liabilities of Spider Ltd were recorded at amounts equal to fair value except for
plant for which the carrying amount of $80 000 (net of accumulated depreciation of $40 000) was
$3000 less than the fair value. The plant was estimated to have a further 3-year life. The fair value of
the non-controlling interest was $15 500. Huntsman Ltd uses the full goodwill method.

The following annual results were recorded by Spider Ltd following the business combination:

The other items of comprehensive income relate to the gains on land of Spider Ltd that are recorded
