RBE owns 70% of the ordinary share capital of DCA. The total group equity as at 31 December 20X1 was $4,000,000, which included $650,000 attributable to non-controlling interest.

RBE purchased a further 20% of the ordinary share capital of DCA on 1 October 20X2 for $540,000. During the year to 31 December 20X2, RBE issued 2 million $1 ordinary shares, fully paid, at $1.30 per share.

Dividends were paid by both group entities in April 20X2. The dividends paid by RBE and DCA were $200,000 and $100,000, respectively.

Total comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 20X2 for RBE was $900,000 and for DCA was $600,000. Income is assumed to accrue evenly throughout the year.
