I = 6%

pv = $59,338.60

Option 3

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 6 = $13,000

I = 6%

pv = $63,925.22

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

sweet [91]

Answer and Explanation:

1. For computation of the non-controlling interest as at 30 June 2019 is shown below:-

Adjusted profit = Profit tax after the year - Unrealized gain in stock - Gain on machinery

= $200,000 - $10,500 - $10,500

= $179,000

Non-controlling interest as at 30 June 2019 = Share capital + Retained earning + General reserve + Profit of the year June 2019

= ($800,000 × 20%) + ($200,000 × 20%) + ($400,000 × 20%) + ($179,000 × 20%)

= $160,000 + $40,000 + $80,000 + $35,800

= $315,800

2. The Journal entries are shown below:-

a. Profit for the year Dr, $21,000

         To Stock reserves $10,500

         To Equipment reserve $10,500

(Being reserves is recorded)

Working note:

For stock reserve

Sale price $120,000

Cost $60,000

Profit before tax $60,000

Tax at 30% $18,000

Profit after tax $42,000

Unsold stock 25%

Unrealized profit $10,500

For net gain on sale of machinery

Sale price $80,000

Cost $60,000

Profit before tax $20,000

Tax at 30% $6,000

Profit after tax $14,000

Unsold stock 75% (3 years from 4 years)

Unrealized profit $10,500

b. Profit for the year Dr, $179,000

         To Consolidated reserves and surplus $35,800

          To Non controlling interest $143,200

(Being profit of expert ltd. is recorded)

Working note

Share of non controlling stakeholders = 20% × $179,000

= $35,800

Share of Giant Ltd. = 80% × $179,000

= $143,200
