Scenario: On 1 January 20X4, Quantum Robotics Co acquired 80% of the equity share capital of Nano Assembly Ltd. Consideration consisted of $500,000 cash paid immediately and a further $200,000 payable on 1 January 20X6 (discount rate 10%, PV = $165,289). At acquisition, Nano Assembly's share capital was $100,000 and retained earnings were $350,000. The fair value of the non-controlling interest (NCI) at acquisition was $120,000. A fair value exercise at acquisition identified plant with a fair value $40,000 above its carrying amount (remaining life 4 years).
