       Equipment......................................................... $95000

       Less: accumulated depreciation....................... (25000)

       Net Book value ................................................. $70000

After performing its annual review for impairment, ABC obtains the following data:

       Equipment’s value in use.................................. $58000

       Equipment’s fair value less disposal costs.......... 62000

The remaining useful life of the asset at January 1, 2020 is 5 years. ABC. applies straight-line depreciation to its equipment assets and the equipment has a $5000 residual value. ABC uses IFRS.

Required:

  1. Determine the amount of impairment loss (using the rational entity impairment model).
  2. Prepare the entry to record the impairment loss.
  3. Prepare the journal entry to record the 2020 depreciation.
  4. Assume the carrying value of the equipment, after recording 2020 depreciation, at December 31, 2020 is $50600 and that the carrying value of the equipment would have been $57000 if no impairment had been taken in 2019. The recoverable amount of the equipment at December 31, 2020 is $56000. Prepare the journal entry to record the impairment recovery for 2020.

(LO 3, 4 ) (Accounting for an Operating Lease) On January 1, 2020, a machine was purchased for $900,000 by Young Co. The machine is expected to have an 8-year life with no salvage value.

The machine was leased to St. Leger Inc. for 3 years on January 1, 2020, with annual rent payments of $150,955 due at the beginning of each year, starting January 1, 2020. The machine is expected to have a residual value at the end of the lease term of $562,500, though this amount is unguaranteed. Instructions

A. How much should Young report as income before income tax on this lease for 2020?

B. Record the journal entries St. Leger would record for 2020 on this lease, assuming its incremental borrowing rate is 6% and the rate implicit in the lease is unknown.

Stenberg plc is preparing its financial statements for the year ended 30 November 2020.
On 1 May 2020, the company purchased a factory for the manufacture of optical disks,
paying £24,000,000. The factory will be depreciated over its estimated life of 10 years
using the straight line method on a full year basis with no residual value.
The asking price for the factory had been £30,000,000. However, Stenberg plc estimated
the net present value of the factory’s future expected net cash flows at £28,500,000 and
the price eventually agreed with the vendor was £24,000,000.
During October 2020 a rival company announced that it had patented a new technology
which has been enthusiastically greeted by the major players in the industry. Stenberg
plc now feels that it may be necessary to revise downwards its expectations for the
factory. It now believes that the net present value of the expected net cash flows from the
factory as at 30 November 2020 was £20,500,000. The net realisable value of the factory
was estimated at £14,000,000 as at 30 November 2020.
Required:
Discuss whether or not there is evidence of impairment and describe how the factory
should be treated in the financial statements for the year ended 30 November 2020.

a) Colbert sells 3D printer systems. Recently, Colbert provided a special promotion of zero-interest financing for 2 years on any new 3D printer system. Assume that Colbert sells Lyle Cartright a 3D system, receiving a $5,000 zero-interest-bearing note on January 1, 2020. The cost of the 3D printer system is $4,000. Colbert imputes a 6% interest rate on this zero-interest note transaction. Prepare the journal entry to record the sale on January 1, 2020, and compute the total amount of revenue to be recognized in 2020.

b) Colbert sells 20 nonrefundable $100 gift cards for 3D printer paper on March 1, 2020. The paper has a standalone selling price of $100 (cost $80). The gift cards expiration date is June 30, 2020. Colbert estimates that customers will not redeem 10% of these gift cards. The pattern of redemption is as follows.

Redemption Total
March 31 50 %
April 30 80
June 30 85


Prepare the 2020 journal entries related to the gift cards at March 1, March 31, April 30, and June 30.

question: Why is retained earnings on December 31, 2018, equal to $80,000 in all three cases despite the reporting of different amounts of net income each year?

Is it A,B, or C?

A: Net income over sufficiently long time periods equals cash inflows minus cash outflows. Walmart acquired the land in 2016 for $100,000 and sold it for $180,000 in 2018. Thus, the total effect on net income through the realization of the increase in the va
