     Cost $ 40,500,000   Accumulated depreciation 15,000,000

  General’s estimate of the total cash flows to be generated by selling the products manufactured at its Arizona plant, not discounted to present value

16,600,000

Explanation / Answer

Determine the amount of impairment loss

Book Value =Cost- Accumulated depreciation = $40,500,000-$15,000,000 = $25,500,000

An imporitement loss is indicated because the estimated undsicounted sume of future cash flows of $16.60 million is less than the book value of 25.50milliom

If a loss is indicated, where would it appear in General Optic’s multiple-step income statement?

Answer

The amount of loss to be reported:-

Book Value$ 25,500,000

Estimated fair value 15,000,000

Impairement Loss 10,500,000

The loss would appear in the income statement as an other operating expense

If a loss is indicated, prepare the entry to record the loss

Dr Impairement Loss 10,500,000

Dr Accumulated Depreciation 15,000,000

Cr Assets 25,500,000

Determine the amount of impairment loss assuming that the estimated undiscounted sum of future cash flows is $16,000,000 instead of $16,600,000

There is an impairment loss because the undsicounted sum of future cas flows (16million)is less then the book values of 25.50 million

The amount of impairement loss:

Book Value 25,500,000

Fair Value 15,000,000

Impairement Loss 10,500,000

Determine the amount of impairment loss assuming that the estimated undiscounted sum of future cash flows is $26,250,000 instead of $16,600,000

There is not impairement loss because the undiscounted future cash flows (26.25 million)is greated then the book value of 25.50 million
