After the share sale, Hill owns 40% of Doyle’s shares and has the ability to appoint two of the six

members of Doyle’s board of directors. IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures states

that an associate is an entity over which an investor has significant influence. Significant influence is

presumed when the investor has a shareholding of between 20 and 50%. Representation on the board of

directors provides further evidence that significant influence exists.

Therefore, the remaining 40% shareholding in Doyle should be accounted for as an associate. It will be

initially recognized at its fair value of $300 million and accounted for using the equity method. This

means that the group recognizes its share of the associate’s profit after tax, which equates to $24·6

million ($123m x 6/12 x 40%). As at the reporting date, the associate will be carried at $324·6 million

($300m + $24·6m) in the consolidated statement of financial position
