Crane Company owns machinery with a book value of $750000. It is
estimated that the machinery will generate future cash flows of
$690000. The machinery has a fair value of $550000. Crane should
recognize a loss on impairment of
$140000. |
$200000. |
$ -0-. |
$60000. |
The correct answer is $60000
Impairment Loss = Carrying Amount of Asset - Recoverable Amount
Carrying Amount = Cost of Asset - Depreciation
Recoverable Amount = Higher of
Net Sale Proceeds = Fair Value of Asset - Expenses incurred for sale
Value in use = The present value of benefits expected from continuing use of assets and its disposal.
Carrying Amount = $750000 - 0
= $750000
Net Sale proceeds = $550000 - 0
= $550000
Value in use = $690000
Therefore Recoverable Amount = $690000
( Higher of Net Sale proceeds and Value in use)
Calculation of Impairment Loss
= $750000 - $690000
= $60000
