Blue Company purchased 10% of Tot Company’s 100,000 outstanding ordinary shares on
January 1, 2019 for P500,000.
On December 31, 2019, Blue Company purchased an additional 20,000 shares of Tot Company
for P1,500,000. Tot Company had not issued any additional shares during 2019.
The investee reported earnings of P3,000,000 for 2019.
The fair value of the 10% interest is P900,000 on December 31, 2019.
1. What is the carrying value amount of the investment in associate on December 31, 2019?
a. 2,300,000
b. 2,000,000
c. 2,400,000
d. 2,900,000
2. What total amount of income should be recognized for 2019?

b. 400,000
c. 900,000
d. 0
Solution 38-1
Question 1 Answer c
Fair value of 10% interest 900,000

Cost on December 31, (20,000/100,000 shares = 20%) 1,500,000
Carrying amount – December 31, 2019 2,400,000
If the investment in associate is achieved in stages, the existing interest is remeasured at fair
value with any change in fair value included in profit or loss.
The fair value of the existing interest plus the cost of the new interest equals the total cost of
investment in the initial application of the quality method starting 2020.
Question 2 Answer b
Fair value of 10% interest 900,000

Acquisition cost of 10% interest 500,000
Gain on remeasurement to equity 400,000
The gain on remeasurement is recognized in profit or loss.
Since the investment in associate is achieved on December 31, 2019, the investor does not share
in the net income of the investee in 2019.
The equity method of accounting is fully applied starting 2020.
Problem 38-2 (IFRS)
On January 1, 2019, Forensic Company acquired a 10% interest in an investee for P3,000,000.
The investment was accounted for using the cost method.
On January 1, 2020, the entity acquired a further 15% interest in the investee for P6,750,000.
On such date, the carrying amount of the net assets of the investee was P36,000,000 and the fair
value of the 10% interest was P4,500,000.
The fair value of the net assets of the investee is equal to carrying amount except for an
equipment whose fair value exceeds carrying amount by P4,000,000. The equipment has a
remaining life of 5 years.
The investee reported net income of P8,000,000 for 2020 and paid cash dividend of P5,000,000
on December 31, 2020.

Question 1 Answer a
Fair value of 10% interest 4,500,000

Carrying amount of 10% interest 3,000,000
Gain on remeasurement to equity 1,500,000
If investment is achieved in stages, the existing interest is remeasured at fair value with any
change in fair value included in profit or loss.
Question 2 Answer b

Cost of additional 15% interest 6,750,000
Total cost of investment 11,250,000
Fair value of net assets acquired (25% x 36,000,000) 9,000,000
Excess of cost 2,250,000
Excess attributable to equipment (25% x 4,000,000) 1,000,000
Good will 1,250,000
The fair value of the existing interest plus the cost of the new interest equals to total cost of the
investment on the initial application of the equity method on January 1, 2020.
Question 3 Answer b
Total cost of investment – January 1, 2020 11,250,000

Investment income 1,800,000
Share in cash dividend (25% x 5,000,000) ( 1,250,000)
Share in net income (25% x 8,000,000) 2,000,000
Amortization of excess (1,000,000 / 5) ( 200,000)
Investment income 1,800,000
The excess of cost over carrying amount attributable to goodwill is not amortized.

received in 2019 (10% x 2,000,000) 200,000
Question 2
Investment income for 2020 (30% x 6,500,000) 1,950,000
The investor shares in the income of the investee in 2020 because the quality method is applied
starting 2020.
Question 3

Cost of 20% new interest 10,000,000
Total cost of investment - January 1, 2020 16,000,000
Investment income for 2020 (30% x 6,500,000) 1,950,000
Share in cash dividend for 2020 (30% x 3,000,000) ( 900,000)

Problem 38-5 (IFRS)
Chur Company acquired a 40% interest in Flim Company for P1,700,000 on January 1, 2019.
The shareholder’s equity of Flim Company is presented below.
January 1 December 31
Share capital 3,000,000 3,000,000
Revaluation surplus 1,300,000
Retained earnings 1,000,000 1,500,000
On January 1, 2019, all the identifiable assets and liabilities of Flim Company were recorded at
fair value. Flim Company reported profit of P700,000, after income tax expense of P300,000 and
paid dividend of P200,000 to shareholders during the current year.
The revaluation surplus is the result of the revaluation of land recognized by Flim Company on
December 31, 2019. Additionally, depreciation is provided by Flim Company on the diminishing
balance method whereas Chur Company used the straight line. Had Flim Company used the
straight line, the accumulated depreciation would be increased by P200,000.
What is the carrying amount of the investment in associate on December 31, 2019?
a. 2,420,000
b. 1,700,000
c. 1,900,000
d. 2,320,000
Solutions:

Net assets acquired (40% x 4,000,000) (1,600,000)
Goodwill – not amortized 100,000
Net income (40% x 700,000) 280,000
Cash dividend (40% x 200,000) ( 80,000)
Revaluation surplus (40% x 1,300,000) 520,000
There is no need to adjust for the difference in depreciation method.

If both entities have chosen a method that best reflects the flow of benefits as the assets are
consumed, then there is no policy difference.

Problem 38 – 6 (IFRS)
Aye Company acquired 30% of the issued share capital of Bee Company for
P1,000,000 on January 1, 2019. The retained earnings of Bee Company on this
date amounted to P2,000,000. The entities prepared their financial statements on
December 31 of each year.
Bee Company showed the following abbreviation statement of financial position

on December 31, 2020:.
Sundry net assets 6,000,000
Share Capital, P10 par 1,000,000
Share premium 2,000,000
Retained earnings 3,000,000
The fair value of the net assets of Bee Company at the date of acquisition was
P5,000,000.
The recoverable amount of net assets of Bee Company is P7,000,000 on December

31,2020.
What is the carrying amount of the investment in associate on December 21,

2020?
a. 1,800,000.
b. 2,100,000
c. 1,500,000
d. 1,000,000
Solution 38-6 Answer a
Investment in associate (30% x 6,000,000) 1,800,000

Another approach
Postacquisition net income (3,000,000 – 2,000,000 x 30%) 300,000
Excess net fair value 500,000
Investment in associate 1,800,000
Excess net fair value – included in investment income 500,000
The investment in associate is not impaired because the carrying amount of

P1,800,000 is lower than the recoverable amount of P2,100,000 (30% x
7,000,000)
