Has anyone else come across this problem and found it a bit strange? They are asking for the differences in D/E ratio if a company is held as equity or proportional consolidation. Given there are three shareholders and it is a 50/30/20 split then that should mean that the company in question, who is holding 20%, would only account for 20% of the debt/assets of the holding but the mock is saying that their holdings would be 50% even though they are a 20% shareholder. I mean WTF!!! They come up with ever GD trick in the book and I am completely loosing any and all confidence with this thing. F*cked!

I think you have misread that question. I don’t have it right in front of me right now, but I think at that point both companies Owned 50%. The 20% stakeholder bought out the 30% stakeholder.
