At 1 July 2013, Wallaby Ltd owned but has no recorded an internally generated brand name.
This brand name was considered by Rock Ltd to have fair value of $29 000 and an indefinite useful life. An impairment test conducted with respect to the brand name on 30 June 2016 concluded that its recoverable amount at that date was $2000 less than its carrying amount.
The vehicle and machinery were expected to have a further useful life of 6 and 8 years respectively, with benefits to be received evenly over those periods. Inventory on hand at 1 July 2013 was all sold by 31 January 2014. The machinery owned at 1 July 2013 was sold on 1 January 2016 for $38 000.
Adjustments for the differences between carrying amount and fair value of assets and liabilities on hand at acquisition date are recognised on consolidation. When assets are sold or derecognised, any related valuation reserves are transferred to retained earnings.
