Chapter 12, Problem 12.1P

Tangible Asset Impairment. Chrispian Cookies, Inc. is reviewing all available information regarding the future use of its baking equipment, which it intends to use for the foreseeable future. The information indicates that this equipment may be obsolete and could be impaired. Chrispian acquired the equipment 3 years ago at a cost of $9,000,000 and depreciated it using the straight-line method with an estimated residual value of $1,800,000 and an 8-year useful life.

At the end of the third year, management estimates the following cash flows from the use of the asset:

Future Period Cash-Flow Projection
Year 1 $1,800,000
Year 2 1.600,000
Year 3 980,000
Year 4 890,000
Year 5 730,000
Total $6,000,000

The asset is highly specialized and is not traded in an active market. As a result, the fair value of the asset must be estimated Chrispian’s cost of capital is 6%.

Required

  1. a. Conduct an impairment test for Chrispian’s baking equipment.
  2. b. Prepare the journal entry to record any impairment loss indicated.
  3. c. Compute the amount of the revised depreciation expense at the end of the next year. Assume that management now estimates that there will be no residual value at the end of the asset’s life.
  4. d. The estimated fair value at the end of the next year is $4,400,000. The sum of the undiscounted future cash flows exceeds the asset’s carrying value. Compare the carrying value of the asset to its fair value. Explain how to treat the difference between the asset's carrying value and fair value.

(Depreciation—Replacement, Change in Estimate) Greg Maddox Company constructed a building at a cost of $2,200,000 and occupied it beginning in January 1998. It was estimated at that time that its life would be 40 years, with no salvage value.In January 2018, a new roof was installed at a cost of $300,000, and it was estimated then that the building would have a useful life of 25 years from that date. The cost of the old roof was $160,000.Instructions(a) What amount of depreciation should have been charged annually from the years 1998 to 2017? (Assume straight-line depreciation.)(b) What entry should be made in 2018 to record the replacement of the roof?(c) Prepare the entry in January 2018 to record the revision in the estimated life of the building, if necessary.(d) What amount of depreciation should be charged for the year 2018?
