Explanation:

Given:

Prescott Corp. owned 90% of Bell Inc.

Bell Inc. owned 10% Prescott Corp

Computation:

Total income of Prescott Corp = $266,000 + 90% of Bell Inc incomeEq1

Total income of Bell Inc = $98,000 + 10% of Prescott Corp incomeEq2

From Eq1 and Eq2

Total income of Prescott Corp = $266,000 + 90%($98,000 + 10% of Prescott Corp income)

Total income of Prescott Corp = $266,000 + $88,200 + 0.09 Prescott Corp income

Total income of Prescott Corp - 0.09 Prescott Corp income = $354,200

0.91 Prescott Corp income = $354,200

Prescott Corp income = $389,231

Non-controlling interest in Bell's net income = $98,000 + 10% of Prescott Corp income

Non-controlling interest in Bell's net income = $98,000 + 10%($389,231)
