On the BIWS guide NCI is defined as an ownership of more than 50% but less than 100%.
Investopedia says its less then 50%. My intuition tells me investopedia is correct. Which one is it?
And say i purchased 70% of a company using $100. How would this affect the three statements? 1. Income statement no change 2. CF - decrease in 100 from acquisition 3. BS - Cash down by 100; where would it balance on the L+SE side?
Thank you!
