Definition :-
Non controlling Interest Share = A non-controlling interest, also known as a minority interest, is an ownership position wherein a shareholder owns less than 50% of outstanding shares and has no control over decisions. Non-controlling interests are measured at the net asset value of entities and do not account for potential voting rights.
Basically, we need to apply minority share percentage on the net income of Schilla.
*Net Income = Sales revenue - COGS - Operating Expenses
= $3,00,000 - $1,20,000 - $80,000
= $1,00,000
**Minority Share or non controlling share can be calculated as = 100% - 80% = 20%
Non controlling Interest Share = $1,00,000 * 20%
= $20,000
Therefore, the answer is option (e) i.e $20,000
