Wattle Ltd manufactures and sells soft drinks. The financial year end is 30 June. The business purchased a new machine for $40,000 cash on 1 January 2015. The expected useful life was 10 years and residual value $2,000. On 30 June 2016, Wattle Ltd adopted the revaluation model to account for the class of machinery. The fair value of the machine was determined to be $32,000 on that date. The useful life and residual value of the machine were reassessed to 8 years and $1,500 respectively. Owing to technological advances, Wattle Ltd decided to replace the machine. On 31 March 2017, the business traded in for a new machine for $64,000.
