At acquisition date the equipment had a further expected useful life of four (4) years. The trademark was considered to have an indefinite life. However, an impairment test conducted in June 2014 resulted in the trademark being impaired, on consolidation, by $15 000. The machinery, which was estimated to have a further four (4) year life at acquisition date, was sold on 1 January 2014. During the year ended 30 June 2012 all inventory on hand at acquisition date was sold. The land was sold in February 2015.

At 1 July 2011, Beryl Ltd had not recorded a liability relating to a guarantee that was considered to have a fair value of $15 000. After default by the borrower in June 2015, Beryl Ltd paid $8 000 in part payment of the liability with the balance payable by 30 September 2015.

Beryl Ltd registered a patent on 28 June 2011 but had not recognized it as an asset. Pearl Ltd believed the fair value of the patent was $17 000. The patent is legally enforceable for a period of ten years. On 1 January 2015, Beryl Ltd sold the patent for $14 000.

In June 2012, the directors of Beryl Ltd transferred $15 000 from retained earnings as at 1 July 2011 to the General Reserve. On 27 June 2015, Beryl Ltd declared a bonus share issue of $30 000 funded from the general reserve balance on hand at I July 2011. All other transfers to the General Reserve were from post-acquisition profits.

Any adjustments for differences between carrying amounts at acquisition date and fair values are made on consolidation. Any valuation reserves created are transferred on consolidation to retained earnings when assets are sold, fully consumed or completely impaired.
