At 30 June 2018, Sandan Ltd had recorded a dividend payment of $10,000. The inventory on hand on 1 July 2018 was all sold by 30 December 2018. The machinery had a further 5-year life, but was sold on 1 April 2021. At the acquisition date, Sandan Ltd reported a contingent liability of $15,000 that Jasbra Ltd considered to have a fair value of $7000. This liability was settled in June 2019 for $10,000. At the acquisition date, Sandan Ltd had not recorded an asset relating to equipment design as the asset was still in the research phase. Jasbra Ltd placed a fair value on the asset of $12,000 reflecting expected benefits existing at acquisition date. The asset was considered to have a further 10 year life. On 1 January 2020, the asset met the requirements of IAS 38 Intangible Assets and subsequent expenditure by Sandan Ltd on the asset was capitalised.

Jasbra Ltd uses the full goodwill method. At 1 July 2018, the fair value of the non-controlling interest was $75,000.
