Subject:AccountingPrice:9.82 Bought3

Cacik acquired 80% of the 1 million issued £1 ordinary shares capital of Chaas on 1 April 20X1 for £1,750,000. Chaas' retained earnings were £920,000 at acquisition and £1,100,000 at year end 31 December 20X1

The carrying amount (N BV) of Chaas' net assets at that date was the same as the fair value, with the exception of a building which had a carrying amount of £680,000 and a fair value of £745,000.

The Group measures non—controlling interest (NCI) at share of net assets.
