Scenario Comparison
Compare the current equity-method case against passive IFRS 9 and full-consolidation scenarios using the same investment data.
Equity Method
Single-line investment asset. Share of profit is recognised as equity pickup income.
Fair Value
Investment measured at fair value. Change from cost is recognised in profit or loss or OCI, depending on classification.
Full Consolidation
Associate assets and liabilities would be replaced by subsidiary balances only when control exists.

| Prepared By | BISP Trainings | Version | 3.0 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use Case | Investment in Equity | Method | Equity Method |
| Ownership | 40% | Status | Ready for Review |
IFRS Classification and Measurement
Adjust ownership, control, and significant influence to see whether the investment is treated under IFRS 10, IAS 28, or IFRS 9.
Subsidiary
Control exists. Use full consolidation with line-by-line assets, liabilities, income, expenses, and non-controlling interest where applicable.
Associate / Joint Venture
Significant influence without control. Use the equity method and present a single investment line in the Balance Sheet.
Passive Equity Investment
No control or significant influence. Measure at fair value through profit or loss, or eligible FVOCI when elected.
