Expert Solution

Answer
a)Recoverable amount shall be higher of the following:
*Fair Value less cost of disposal is 61,700
*Value in use is 58000
So Recoverable Amount is $ 58,000.
Fair Value = Market Value less cost of sale
66000 - (5% of 66000)- 1000
61700 $
Value in use = $ 58000
(Assumed after Discounted factor $ 70000 comes to $58000)
b) Impared Loss = Carrying Amount - Recoverable Value
Impared Loss = 71000-58000
Impared Loss = 13000
Carrying Amount = (95000 - (4*((95000-5000)/15))
71000 $
c)
$ $
Impaired Loss A/c….......................Dr. 13000
            To Equipment A/c 13000
(Being Impared loss provided)
d) ASPE requires goodwill to be tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
As per ASPE Imparaired Loss = Carrying Amount - Fair Value
71000 - 61700
9300 $
