On 1 January 2022, Cassie Ltd acquired all the shares of Jasmine Ltd for $262 000 on a cum-div. basis. On this date, the equity and liabilities of Jasmine Ltd included the following balances:

 

Share capital  

$115,500

 

General reserve 

 

$2,000
Retained earnings

$50,000 

 

Dividend Payable

$5,000

 

Goodwill$10,000

 At acquisition date, all the identifiable assets and liabilities of Jasmine Ltd were recorded at amounts equal to fair value except for:

 Carrying amountFair value
Plant (cost $50,000)$40,000$44,000
Patent20,00026,000
Inventories30,00039,000
Land50,00075,000

 The plant had a useful life of 5 years at acquisition date and was expected to be used evenly over that time. Jasmine had not recorded an internally generated brand that Cassie considered to have a fair value of $22,000. The brand was considered to have an indefinite life. The patent had a further 6-year useful life at acquisition date. Any adjustments for differences between carrying amounts at acquisition date and fair values are made on consolidation. Goodwill on acquisition was impaired by $10,000 on 30 June 2022. During the year ended 30 June 2022, all inventories on hand at acquisition date were sold, and the land was sold on 1 June 2023 for $80,000. Any valuation reserves created are transferred on consolidation to retained earnings when assets are sold or fully consumed.
