- On January 1, 2014, Borstad Company purchased equipment for $1,150,000. It is depreciating the equipment over 25 years using the straight-line method and a zero residual value. Late in 2019, because of technological changes in the industry and reduced selling prices for its products, Borstad believes that its equipment may be impaired and will have a remaining useful life of 8 years. Borstad estimates that the equipment will produce cash inflows of $450,000 and will incur cash outflows of $342,000 each year for the next 8 years. It is not able to determine the fair value of the equipment based on a current selling price. Borstad’s discount rate is 14%. Required: 1. Prepare schedules to determine whether, at the end of 2019, the equipment is impaired and, if so, the impairment loss to be recognized. 2. Prepare the journal entry to record the impairment. 3.

On 30 June 2021, Bob Ltd. adopted the revaluation model to account for the class of machinery. The fair values of Machine X and Machine Y were determined to be $6,400 and $9,000 respectively on that date. The useful life and residual value of Machine X was reassessed to 8 years and $300. The useful life and residual value of Machine Y was reassessed to 8 years and $800. On 2 January 2022, extensive repairs were carried out on Machine Y for $12,000 cash.
