Q 10: Balance of Investment account in 2016
Particulars | 2015 | 2016 |
Investment made by Choco in Cookie | 92,000 (10%) | 210,000 (additional 20%) |
Net income of Cookie | 180,000 | 210,000 |
Dividend paid by Cookie | 80,000 | 100,000 |
Value of investment made by Choco will be reduced by dividend and net income which it has earned from Cookie as it is an income inflow to Choco for investment made.
In 2015 = 92,000 - (180,000+80,000)*10% = $66,000
In 2016= Investment received - Dividend paid - Net income attributable to Choco Investment
i.e. (66,000 + 210,000) - (100,000+210,000)*30% = $183,000
