At the end of the first year of operations, Brianna Company chose to use the revaluation framework allowed under IFRS. Brianna’s ledger shows Equipment $480,000 and Accumulated Depreciation-Equipment $60,000. Prepare journal entries to record the following.
(a) Independent appraisers determine that the plant assets have a fair value of $468,000.
(b) Independent appraisers determine that the plant assets have a fair value of $400,000.
Answer to a)
Carrying Amount of equipment = Cost - Accumulated Depreciaton
= 480,000 - 60,000
= 420,000
Fair Value = 468,000
Revaluation Surplus = Fmv - Carrying Amount
= 480,000 - 468,000
= 48,000
Journal entry
Equipment | 48,000 | |
Revaluation Surplus | 48,000 |
Answer to b)
Cost Amount of equipment = 480,000
Accumulated depreciation = 60,000
Fair Value = 400,000
Impairment Loss = Cost - Accumulated Depreciation -Fair value
= 480,000 - 60,000 - 400,000
= 20,000
Journal entry
Impairment Loss | 20,000 | |
Accumulated Depreciation | 60,000 | |
Equipment | 80,000 |
