On 1 January 20x7, P Ltd paid S$500,000 to acquire a 60% interest in S Ltd when the fair value of S Ltds identifiable net

On 1 January 20x7, P Ltd paid S$500,000 to acquire a 60% interest in S Ltd when the fair value of S Ltds identifiable net assets was represented by share capital of S$300,000 and retained profit of S$300,000, except for (i) an unrecognized brand that had a market value of S$100,000, and (ii) freehold land that was accounted for at cost of S$100,000 but that had a market value of S$140,000.

On 1 January 20x7, P Ltd also paid RM180,000 to acquire a 30% interest in A Bhd (which gave P Ltd significant influence but not control over A Bhd) when the fair value of A Bhds identifiable net assets was represented by share capital of RM300,000 and retained profit of RM300,000.

Both P Ltd and S Ltd are companies incorporated in Singapore with the Singapore Dollar (S$) as their functional currency and presentation currency, whereas A Bhd is a company incorporated in Malaysia with the Ringgit Malaysia (RM) as its functional currency and presentation currency.

In August 20x7, the goodwill arising from P Ltds acquisition of S Ltd was deemed to be impaired and was written down by S$30,000.

During 20x7, P Ltd sold goods to S Ltd at cost plus 50%. The total intercompany sales for 20x7 was S$180,000. On 31 December 20x7, S Ltds closing inventory included goods purchased from P Ltd of S$90,000. During 20x8, S Ltd had sold all of the remaining inventory purchased from P Ltd to external parties. There were no intercompany sales (from P Ltd to S Ltd) during 20x8.

In April 20x8, S Ltd sold its freehold land to an external party for S$200,000.

During 20x8, S Ltd sold goods to P Ltd at cost plus 100%. The total intercompany sales (from S Ltd to P Ltd) for 20x8 was S$200,000. On 31 December 20x8, P Ltds closing inventory included goods purchased from S Ltd of S$50,000.

All dividends were declared out of 20x8 profits, and had been duly paid and received.

P Ltd and S Ltd adopt the Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) (SFRS(I)). All the relevant SFRS(I) that were issued by the Accounting Standards Council as at 1 January 2019 are assumed to have been effective on 1 January 20x7. A Bhd adopts the Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards which are largely similar to SFRS(I). As such, no adjustments are needed to ensure that A Bhds financial statements comply with SFRS(I). All the companies present annual financial statements with 31 December financial year-ends.

The group policy was to measure inventory using the first-in, first-out method, to measure property, plant, and equipment at cost, and to measure non-controlling interests at the acquisition date based on their proportionate share of the acquisition-date fair value of identifiable net assets of subsidiaries acquired.

Ignore tax effects, if any, arising from consolidation.
