a                               Total consideration                            180,000

b                               Stake acquired                            90%

c=a/b                       Fair value of subsidiary                    200,000

Less: Fair value amortization      12,600

Balance Jan 1, 20X8                      203,400

{Share of earnings for 2 years = 30,000 × 2 × 90% = 54,000 }

{Share of dividends for 2 years = 10,000 × 2 × 90% = 18,000 }

{Fair value amortization for 2 years = 7,000 × 90% × 2 = 12,600}

Therefore Balance as at Jan 1, 20X8 is
