Notes -

1) Impairment (US GAAP) - If Carrying value of equipment or Undiscounted future cash flows expected then there is impairment

Carrying value = ($124300-$24860) = $99440

Undiscounted future cash flow = $106400

Imapairment = NO Impairment since carrying amount is lower than undiscounted future cash flows.

2) Impairment (IFRS) - First, Impairment is tested by taking higher of present value of future cash flows or Fair value

then impairment is assessed is carrying value exceeds that higher value.

Carrying value = ($124300-$24860) = $99440

Higher of Fair value or Present value of future cash flows (higher of $90700 or $86350) = $90700

Impairment = ($99440 - $90700) = $8740

3) Depreciation

New Carrying value = ($99440 - $8740) = $90700

Remaining life = 4 years

Depreciation per year = ($90700/4) = $22675
