Solution

The amount to be eliminated on consolidation is the portion of the dividend that is paid to the parent company. Since the parent company owns 65% of the subsidiary, it receives 65% of the dividend.

Here's how to calculate it:

  1. Convert the ownership percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100. So, 65% becomes 0.65.
  2. Multiply the dividend by the ownership decimal. So, 120,0000.65=120,000 * 0.65 = 78,000.

Therefore, the amount to be eliminated on consolidation is 78,000.So,theanswerisc.78,000. So, the answer is c. 78,000.
