Subject:AccountingPrice:3.87 Bought7

The information that follows relates to equipment owned by Coronado Limited at December 31, 2020:

Cost. $9,450,000

Accumulated depreciation to date 1,050,000

Expected future net cash flows (undiscounted). 7,350,000

Expected future net cash flows (discounted, value in use) 6,667,500

Fair value 6,510,000

Costs to sell (costs of disposal) 52,500

At December 31, 2020, Coronado discontinues use of the equipment and intends to dispose of it in the coming year by selling it to a competitor. It is expected that the costs of disposal will total $52,500.

a)

Assume that Coronado is a private company that follows ASPE. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. if no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)

1. Prepare thejournal entry at December 31, 2020, to record asset impairment, if any.

2. Prepare thejournal entry to record depreciation expense for 2021.

3. Assume that the asset was not sold by December 31, 2021. The equipment's fair value (and recoverable amount) on this date is $6.83 million. Prepare the journal entry, if any, to record the increase in fair value. It is expected that the costs of disposal will total $52,500. No. Account Titles and Explanation Debit Credit (1) Accumulated Impairment Losses - Equipment | 1732500 Equipment | 1732500 (2) Depreciation Expense | 666750 Accumulated Depreciation - Equipment 666750 (3) Equipment 776750 Revaluation Surplus (OCI) 776750

b.

Repeat the requirements in (a) above assuming that Coronado is a public company that follows IFRS, and that the asset meets all criteria for classi?cation as an asset held for sale. {Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered.

Step-by-step explanation

a. ASPE

To determine whether the asset is impaired, we have to compare the carrying amount vs. the recoverable amount.

 

Carrying amount:

 

Cost $9,450,000

Accumulated depreciation 1,050,000

Book value $8,400,000

 

Recoverable amount: Expected future net cash flows (undiscounted) - $7,350,000

 

Impairment test:

Carrying amount = $8,400,000

Recoverable amount = $7,350,000

 

Since carrying amount is higher than the recoverable amount, it means that the asset is impaired.

 

To compute for impairment loss:

 

Carrying amount $8,400,000

Fair value 6,510,000

Impairment loss $1,890,000

 

Journal entries:

 

(1) To record the impairment loss for December 31, 2020:

 

Dr. Loss on Impairment 1,890,000

Cr. Accumulated Impairment Losses - equipment 1,890,000

 

(2)To record the depreciation expense for December 31, 2020:

 

No entry. Since the equipment is already held for sale, it should no longer be depreciated.

 

(3) Assume asset was not sold in December 1, 2021, increase in fair value:

 

Dr.   Accumulated Impairment Losses - equipment 320,000

Cr. Recovery loss on impairment 320,000

 

Revised FV $6,830,000

Old FV 6,510,000

Recovered impairment loss $320,000

 

Limit for recovered impairment loss - should not exceed the impairment loss previously recorded

 

b. IFRS

 

To determine whether the asset is impaired, we have to compare the carrying amount vs. the recoverable amount.

 

Carrying amount:

 

Cost $9,450,000

Accumulated depreciation 1,050,000

Book value $8,400,000

 

Recoverable amount: higher between the Fair value less cost to sell and the value in use

 

Fair value less cost to sell = $6,510,000 - 52,500 = $6,457,500

Value in use = PV of future cash flows = $6,667,500

 

Recoverable amount = value in use

 

Impairment test:

Carrying amount = $8,400,000

Recoverable amount = $6,667,500

 

Since carrying amount is higher than the recoverable amount, it means that the asset is impaired.

 

To compute for impairment loss:

 

Carrying amount $8,400,000

FV less cost to sell 6,457,500

Impairment loss $1,942,500

 

Journal entries:

 

(1) To record the impairment loss for December 31, 2020:

 

Dr. Loss on Impairment 1,942,500

Cr. Accumulated depreciation - equipment 1,942,500

 

(2)To record the depreciation expense for December 31, 2020:

 

No entry. Since the equipment is already held for sale, it should no longer be depreciated.

 

(3) Assume asset was not sold in December 1, 2021, increase in fair value:

 

Dr.   Accumulated depreciation - equipment 320,000

Cr. Gain on impairment reversal 320,000

 

Revised FV less cost to sell $6,777,500 ($6,830,000 - 52,500)

Old FV less cost to sell 6,457,500

Recovered impairment loss $320,000

Limit for recovered impairment loss - should not exceed the impairment loss previously recorded
