AS27

This query is : Resolved 

03 January 2010 As per AS27, when the venturer sells an asset to a Jointly controlled entity (JCE) for a profit/ loss, the venturer will recognise only that part of the profit/ loss which belongs to other venturers- i.e. he will not recognise his own share of profit/ loss.
Q 1) I don't understand the logic behind this.
Q 2) I was discussing this with my friends, and they felt that since the venturer is selling the asset, the profit belongs to him, then why not to recognise his share?
Q 3) Also, will there be any corresponding entry in the books of the other venturers?

03 January 2010 The logic is simple; one cannot make profit by selling something to oneself. On the other hand, mind you, one can incur loss by consuming something.
