The main change in the mathod is just because of two options in calculating the non-controlling interest.
Non-controlling interest can be calculated either at proportionate basis or at markete value. Calculation of goodwill will also vary accoring to the choice of mathod.
According to me, old mathod can be applied for the year ended 31 December 2009.
