The exchange rates

Question 1 (15 marks)
On 1 January 2021, PPP Ltd incorporated a subsidiary, S Ltd, for FC
4,000. The functional currency of S Ltd is FC and therefore the financial
statements of S Ltd are in FC. On the other hand, the functional and
presentation currency of PPP Ltd is HK$.
Before PPP Ltd prepares the consolidated financial statements, it needs
to translate the financial statements of S Ltd into HK$. However, at
year-end, an accountant has only found the exchange rates as below and
prepared the financial information of S Ltd in FC. Thus, the financial
information of S Ltd in Hong Kong dollars has not been prepared.
The exchange rates were:
1 January 2021 FC1 = HK$1.10
19 August 2021 FC1 = HK$1.15
31 December 2021 FC1 = HK$1.30
Average for 2021 FC1 = HK$1.08
