The following information is relevant:
(i) Pythias’s policy is to value the non-controlling interest at fair value at the date of acquisition. For this purpose the directors of Pythias considered a share price for Sara of K3.50 per share to be appropriate.
(ii) At the date of acquisition, the fair values of Sara’s property, plant and equipment was equal to its carrying amount with the exception of Sara’s plant which had a fair value of K4 million above its carrying amount. At that date the plant had a remaining life of four years. Sara uses straight-line depreciation for plant assuming a nil residual value. Also at the date of acquisition, Pythias valued Sara’s customer relationships as a customer base intangible asset at fair value of K3 million. Sara has not accounted for this asset. Trading relationships with Sara’s customers last on average for six years.
(iii) At 30 September 2011, Sara’s inventory included goods bought from Pythias (at cost to Sara) of K2.6 million. Pythias had marked up these goods by 30% on cost. Pythias’s agreed current account balance owed by Sara at 30 September 2011 was K1.3 million.
(iv)Impairment tests were carried out on 30 September 2011 which concluded that consolidated goodwill was not impaired, but, due to disappointing earnings, the value of the investment in Austin was impaired by K2.5 million.
(v) Assume all profits accrue evenly through the year.

In October 1929, the U.S. stock market suddenly crashed after a long period of growth. It was the beginning of the Great Depression era with falling incomes and prices that came to a definite end only right before Pearl Harbor, and the start of World War II.
In contrast, in 2001, the dotcom bubble burst, but the economy quickly got back on its feet a few quarters later. In 2007-2008 the US housing market crashed and set off a financial crisis that initially mirrored the great depression. After a few years, however, it became evident that the US economy had escaped such a threat with only a “great recession” rather than a “great depression”.
