Direct NCI 20% 10%
Indirect NCI (SA's NCI has a share in SB = 20% * 90%) 18%
Total NCI 20% 28%
Another way to arrive at B's total NCI is to take 100% and subtract the
parent's effective interest in B Ltd of 72%. The residual is due to both
direct and indirect NCI in SB of 28%.
Acquisition cost is proportionate to fair value; hence NCI's share can be deduced.

Note for CJE3: Although NCI has a share of RE of SA that includes past dividend income
from SB, there is no double counting. In CJE 4, NCI of SA has an indirect share of change in SB's
RE which would have been reduced by the past dividends declared by SB.

which is shared by the ultimate shareholders of SA.

IFRS 3 requires gain on bargain purchase to be recognized in the income statement and the gain to be
attributable to the acquirer. Basis of Conclusion BC 376 stipulates that a gain taken to income
and goodwill cannot be recognized on the same business combination.
To avoid this inconsistency, we recognize NCI as a share of identifiable net assets and ignore the gain on
bargain purchase.

IFRS 3 Basis of Conclusions (BC376) does not permit a gain on bargain purchase and goodwill to be
recognized on the same business combination.
Since P recognizes goodwill on the acquisition of the sub-group, the gain will not be recognized by NCI.
The goodwill attributable to NCI in this scenario will be zero.
Fair value of NCI is adjusted to reflect only the proportion of identifiable net assets as at 1 July 20x3.
Note 5: To further check this residual, we can also work out the consolidated net assets as at
1 July 20x3 by reconstructing the consolidation worksheets as at this date.
CJE1B and CJE2B are for explanatory purposes only and not required to answer this question.
First of all, we re-enact the consolidation entries for Y Co and W Co as at 1 July 20x3:
