Explanation / Answer

4)If carrying value of asset is more than Net recoverable amount ,Asset is impaired .Where Net recoverable amount = Lower of present value of cash flow or Fair value

Plant and equipment :

Net recoverable amount :Lower of 70 or 50 =50million

since carrying value of plant and equipment is more than net recoverable amount ,Asset is impaired .

IMpairment loss = 98 -50 = 48 million

b)Net Recoverable amount for patent : lower of 19 or 12 = 12 million

since carrying value equals net recoverable amount ,asset is not impaired .

Impairment loss = 0

c)Fair value of goowill = $ 340-290 =50 million

Book value : $ 120 million

Impairment loss : 120- 50 =$ 70 million
