The machinery on hand at 1 July 2016 was sold on 1 January 2019 for $38 000.

• Adjustments for the differences between carrying amounts and fair values 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.

• In June 2018, Wallaby Ltd paid a share dividend worth $20 000 from the general reserve on hand at 1 July 2016.
