Lotus Limited acquired troy Limited on January 01, 2018. The pre acquisition journal entries to
be made at the date of acquisition would include reversing the equity components of Troy limited being
2

held by Lotus Limited. Thus, the first journal entry would be to reverse the share capital account,
retained earnings account. This reversal would be done against the investment in Troy Limited account.
Further, the revaluation of inventory would also e adjusted in the pre acquisition entry as the
revaluation was done on the date of acquisition. Thus, inventory account has been debited with $560
($240 net of deferred tax liability). The difference amount is either to be debited to goodwill or to be
credited to the business valuation combination reverse account. The difference in this case is $17440
which has been debited top the goodwill account (AASB 10, 2015).

Supporting Discussion:
The elimination of the intra group transactions is an important step in preparation of the
consolidated financial statements. Firstly, Lotus limited would eliminate the interim dividend received
from the subsidiary Troy limited by reversing the dividend revenues account and dividend declared
account. The intra group service provided would be eliminated by reversing the service revenues
account and cost of sales account. Further, the profit earned on the intra group sales of plant and
machinery would be eliminated by debiting gain on plant and crediting the plant account. It may be
noted that the sale of inventory by Troy limited to Lotus limited would have no accounting elimination
as there is no ending inventory remaining in the hands of Lotus limited out that sale. Further, the effect
of depreciation and deferred tax assets/ liability would also be adjusted through journal entries of
elimination (Bisogno, Santis, and Tommasetti, 2015).
