image text in transcribed

Investigation of the property and plant records showed that the equipment consisted of two items:

a machine (no. 1) that cost the company $800 000 and had a carrying amount of $420 000 at 30 June 2019, and another machine (no. 2) that originally cost $600 000 and had a carrying amount at 30 June 2019 of $460 000. Both machines are depreciated on a straight‐line basis over 10 years.

On 1 January 2020, the directors of Wong Ltd decided to switch the valuation method from the cost model to the revaluation model. Machine no. 1 was revalued to its fair value of $480 000, with an expected future useful life of 6 years, and machine no. 2 was revalued to $450 000, with an expected remaining useful life of 6 years.

On 30 June 2020, the fair value of machine no. 1 was assessed at $450 000, and the future useful life was estimated as 5 years. For machine no. 2, fair value was assessed to be only $300 000, and its future useful life to be 4 years because of a certain degree of commercial obsolescence.
