If you have joint venture with the hotel then you will record AED60 M  in Non Current Account of your balance sheet investement in Associates under IAS28. Further any it will increase with gain and loss or any impairment cost at the time of acquisition.

Profit will also hit the P& L Account with Profit on investment in Associate.
