Expert Solution

Impairment loss of Camera 1 = Carrying cost – Recoverable amount

                                                = €1,750 – €575

                                                = €1,175

Impairment loss of Camera 2 = Carrying cost – Recoverable amount

                                                = €3,500 – €1,500

                                                = €2,000

Impairment loss of Camera 3 = Carrying cost – Recoverable amount

                                                = €1,950 – €750

                                                = €1,200

Impairment loss of Accessories = Carrying cost – Recoverable amount

                                                   = €4,550 – €2,200

                                                   = €2,350
