•Solution
•Goodwill based on the partial and full goodwill methods under IFRS 3
•(Revised) would be:
•Partial goodwill $m
•Purchase consideration ………….………….2, 145
•Fair value of identifiable net assets……….. (2,170)
•NCI (30% x 2,170) …………………………..651
•Goodwill …………………………………….626
•Full goodwill $m
•Purchase consideration …………………….2, 145
•NCI …………………………………………..683
•…………………………………………… 2,828
•Fair value of identifiable net assets……… (2,170)
•Goodwill …………………………………658
•The difference between the goodwill computed using full goodwill method & partial goodwill method gives the goodwill attributable to the NCI.
