Reference no: EM133016934
Question - The Controller of ABC Company ("ABC") has determined that an asset group has several indicators of impairment as of December 31, 2020, the company's year-end. ABC uses the Cost Model. There are two different assets in the asset group, a manufacturing plant and an item of equipment. Information about each of the two assets as of year-end is as follows:
Manufacturing Plant Equipment
Original Cost $157,500 $52,500
Accumulated Depreciation $27,900 $20,100
Net Book Value (Carrying Amount) $129,600 $32,400
Residual Value $20,000 $10,000
The fair value of the asset group (i.e. the two assets combined) at December 31, 2020 has been determined to be $136,000 and, if sold, the company would incur legal fees of $3,000 and sales commissions of $4,000.
ABC believes that the asset group can operate for another nine years. Future net operating cash flows associated with this asset group are expected to be $14,000 for each of the next eight years. The final year net operating cash flow is expected to be $18,000, excluding the residual value. The applicable discount rate, if required, is 7%. Assume all cash flows occur at the end of the applicable year.
REQUIRED -
