Richfield uses a machine in the manufacturing of components. In December 2009, a competitor launched its own range of components. These components are being offered at a much lower price. The Company forecasts a 40-50% fall in sales over the next three years. Following detailed assessments Richfield has provided you with the following information: The carrying value of the machine at the date of calculation is R35, 000 The asset is currently depreciated on the straight line basis at a rate of 5% and has a remaining useful life of five years. The value of the asset on the second hand market is R 12,000. Costs to sell the asset are expected to amount to R 3,000. Discounted net cash Inflows from the asset over the asset's remaining useful life (including disposal proceeds) has been assessed at R9, 700. The current residual value of the asset has been estimated at R1, 200 What is the amount of the impairment loss?

Milk Company bought a machine on 1 January 2015 for $5,000,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of 10 years with no residual value. The company uses straight-line depreciation method, cost model for all its PPE and its balance day is 31 December. At December 31, 2016, the performance of the asset was not as expected, producing less milk than the original amount predicted. After some calculations, it was estimated that the fair value less cost to sell the machine would be $3,900,000 and the value in use of the machine would be $3,700,000. Prepare the necessary journal entries to record the above transactions.
Sohar Company bought an equipment on 1 January 2014 at a cost of 50000 OMR. The useful life was estimated to be 10 years and the equipment was expected to have no residual value. The company uses the cost model for this group of assets. At the end of 2016, the conditions showed that there are some indications of impairment and the management decided to make an impairment test. As the result of this test, FV less cost of disposal was 21000 and value in use was calculated as 19800. On 31 December 2019, the conditions have changed and required the reversal of the impairment. As of this date, the recoverable amount was determined as 32000 OMR. Which of the following is the depreciation expense after the impairment at the end of 2016? (For the years 2017 and onwards.) Select one: O a. 4000 O b. 3000 O c. The company stops recording depreciation after that date. O d. 5000

Lexes LLC bought an equipment on the 1st January 2015 at a cost of OMR 800,000. It is being depreciated over a period of 20 years as per straight line basis. In the year 2018 the company decided to use revaluation model to value its equipment. The market value as on 31st December 2018 as per professional experts was OMR 580,000. Which of the following statement is correct with reference to above situation? None of them There is a revaluation gain at the end of year 2018 The value of equipment at the end of 31st December 2020 shall be 507,500. The accumulated depreciation until 31st December 2020 on equipment shall be OMR 240;000. Which of the following intangibles is/ are prohibited from being recognized as an asset? 04:54 EN T-TI/-V
Kenya Company acquired a machine on January 1, 2013 for P8,000,000. The machine has a 10-year useful life, a P500,000 residual value, and is to be depreciated using the straight line method. By the end of 2014, the machine was damaged by a major accident occurring in the plant. The engineers and technicians could not repair this damage and therefore the machine's performance was expected to decline in the future and unlikely to be sold at the end of the useful life. Thus, the machine has a zero residual value. On December 31,2014, a test for recoverability revealed that the expected net future undiscounted cash flows related to the continued use and eventual disposal of the machine totaled P7,000,000. The fair value on December 31, 2014 is P6,600,000 while the discounted net future cash flows amount to P6,300,000. What is the depreciation expense that should be recognized for the year ended December 31, 2014? O P825,000 O P812,500 O Answer not given O P787,500 O P750,000
