    balance sheet:

    investment in Papa 403,200

    Explanation:

    base on the company's ownership percent, which does not have significan influence. We should recognize the difference as gain and adjust the valuation

    market value:

    6,300 x 64 = 403,200

    The net income is not relevant for this calculation,

    we are just doing

    investment in Papa 100,000 debit

    cash 100,000 credit

    at year end we adjust

    investment in Papa 303,200 debit

    gain in investment 303,200 credit
