- A company purchased a piece of equipment for $120,000 and estimated that the asset will have no salvage value t the end of its 15-year useful life. At the end of Year 5 of ownership, when accumulated depreciation was $40,000 and the asset's book value was $80,000, the company revised the asset's estimated useful life to a total of 10 years. What is the appropriate accounting treatment beginning with Year 6? O The equipment will depreciate $40,000 over the next 10 years. O The equipment will depreciate $80,000 over the next 10 years.

Last year, the company recognized an impairment loss of $25,000 and properly reduced the asset's book value from $250,000 to $225,000. Using the asset's new base of $225,000, the company calculates depreciation for the current year to be $10,000, bringing the book value down to $215,000. However, the company has also determined that the asset's fair value has recovered and is now estimated to be $260,000. How should the company measure the asset on its current balance sheet? O The company should reverse the prior impairment and measure the asset at its fair value prior to the initial impairment of $250,000. O The company should not reverse the impairment and should depreciate the asset by $10,000 to a new book value of $215,000. The company should not reverse the impairment and should not depreciate the asset further, leaving the book value at $225,000. O The company should reverse the prior impairment and measure…arrow_forwardThe Donut Stop acquired equipment for $18,000.
