QUESTION THREE(20 MARKS)

P Limited acquired a 60% interest in S Limited at 1 January 2015,

Analyse the Equity of S Ltd
When analysing the equity of the subsidiary at the acquisition date, the fair value adjustment for the land would be ‘replaced’ by the revaluation surplus; draw up the proforma journal entries to record the elimination of the cost of the land.

To record the elimination of the cost of the land in the proforma journal entries, the following entry should be made:

Debit: Land (at the subsidiary's carrying amount)
Credit: Revaluation surplus (related to the land)

This entry will remove the cost of the land from the subsidiary's equity and replace it with the revaluation surplus. The revaluation surplus represents the fair value of the land at the acquisition date.
