Good question.

My answer is that as teh parent company although controls80% of the subsidiary,100% of the accounts should be reported upon consolidation. Therefore100% of sales should be reported for group sales . i.e988,000 (867000+121000). The effect of equity however shows the part for minority interest representing the20% ownership in the financial statement.

Hope this helps

False, As parent company sales is of 

£ 867000 and Subsidiary sales is £ 121000, hence the group sales is £ 988000 not £ 963800
