Mandora Cement Pty Ltd owns 90% of Wagait Sand Supplies Pty Ltd and the accountant William Cox is having difficulty understanding the adjustments that are required for the non-controlling interest. He is particularly confused over the need to adjust for intragroup transfers and cannot understand the treatment when it comes to plant and machinery, inventory and a charge from Mandora Cement for management services.

Required:

Write a business report to William Cox setting out the reason for the adjustments, explaining the treatment of the different transfers and any difference between them. (14 marks)

The report should take the format of a formal business report, written by your firm with yourself as lead author. Marks will be awarded for presentation style and an appropriate business format. (16 marks) (total 30 marks)
