(i) Nature and Purpose of Reserves
Foreign currency translation reserve
This reserve is used to record the exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations where the foreign operations functional currency is different from the Group’s presentation currency.
Common control transaction
In August 2015 the Company entered into a Share Sale Agreement with World Win International Holdings Group Ltd, the Company acquired 100% of the shares in Kuayu International Holdings Group Ltd (“Kuayu”). The ultimate controlling party of the Group prior to the acquisition of Kuayu remained the ultimate controlling party of the Group after the acquisition. Consequently, the transaction was deemed to be between entities under common control and therefore did not qualify for accounting under AASB 3Business Combinations. The assets and liabilities were incorporated into the Group at their pre-combination carrying amounts without any adjustments for fair values, and no goodwill has been recorded on the transaction. The difference between the carrying value of the net assets and the cost of the transaction has been recorded directly in equity.
Pursuant to corporate law of PRC, Shengshihe and Shenzhen WONHE are required to transfer 10% of their net income, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory reserve fund.
