Consider the following calculations

Explanation:

(a) Carrying value of asset: $10,000,000 - $2,500,000 = $7,500,000.

($10,000,000 ÷ 8) x 2 = $2,500,000

Future cash flows $6,300,000

Carrying value $7,500,000

Impairment entry:

Loss on Impairment A/C Dr. $1,900,000

      To Accumulated Depreciation A/C    $ 1,900,000

(7,500,000 - 5,600,000 = 1,900,000)

(b) Depreciation Expense A/C Dr. $ 1,400,000

           To Accumulated Depreciation A/C $ 1,400,000

($5600000/4=$1400000)

(c ) No depreciation is recorded on impaired assets to be disposed of.
