            Unrealised profits included in inventories


            • Sale of inventories from Left Ltd to Centre Ltd

            • Left Ltd sold inventories to Centre Ltd (parent to subsidiary).

                Left Ltd made the intragroup profit. Cost of sales of Left Ltd
                was thus debited and this decreased the group profit.


            • Centre Ltd purchased the inventories from Left Ltd, thus the

                unrealised profit was included in the closing inventories of
                Centre Ltd at year-end. Inventories were decreased with the

                unrealised profit to eliminate the unrealised intragroup
                profit.


            • Left Ltd (parent) was making the profit, thus the unrealised
                profit in the inventories was not shown in the analysis of

                owners' equity of Centre Ltd. In other words: the non-

                controlling interests were not affected. The adjustments
                were taken into account in the consolidated statement of

                profit or loss and other comprehensive income (cost of sales)
                and          consolidated                   statement                 of         financial             position

                (inventories).
                                                                                                                                    32
