When the auditor wants to test the asset for impairment, the auditor would most likely be concerned with the recoverable amount of an intangible asset. For this purpose, the recoverable amount of an intangible asset is not: a. Fair value less cost to sell b. Value in use c. Fair value less cost to sell or value in use, whichever is lower d. Fair value less cost to sell or value in use, whichever is higher

Which of the following statements about the recoverable amount used in the IFRS impairment test of a long-lived asset is false? Group of answer choices The recoverable amount is the lesser of the fair value of the asset less costs to sell or the asset's value in use. If an asset's recoverable amount is higher than the carrying amount, no impairment loss will be reported. After recognizing an impairment of an asset, the firm carries the asset at its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount may be calculated as the discounted value of expected future cash flows from the asset.
Impairment of an intangible asset occurs when the book value of an asset is less than the fair value. True O False
On January 1, 2010, P Company acquired the net assets of S Company for $1,580,000 cash. The fair value of S Co. identifiable net assets was $1,310,000 on this date. P Company decided to measure goodwill impairment using the present value of future cash flows to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit (S Co.). The information for these subsequent years is as follows: Carrying value of SCo. Identifiable Net Assets $1,160,000 $1,120,000 Fair Value S Co. Identifiable Net Assets $1,190,000 $1,210,000 Present value of Future Cash Flows $1,390,000 $1,400,000 Year 2011 2012 * Identifiable net assets do not include goodwil.
Which of the following statements about depreciation is not true? A. Depreciation does not mirror the actual loss of value over time. B. Depreciation is the allocation of the asset’s cost to expense over the expected years of use. C. If the fair value of the asset increases, depreciation is reversed to reflect the change in value. D. U.S. GAAP requires depreciation methods to be systematic and rational.
The core difference between the rational entity impairment model (IFRS) and the cost recovery impairment model (ASPE) is that the IFRS approach waits until circumstances indicate that conditions are very bad before recognizing an impairment. the IFRS approach captures only declines in value, with no later recognition of any recovery. there are many differences; all of the above are true of the IFRS approach as compared to ASPE. the IFRS approach better reflects the economic circumstances underlying the asset’s usefulness to the entity.
Why is the cost of certain kinds of property not recoverable at all by way of depreciation, depletion, or amortization deductions? In addition to answering that question, give three examples of the kinds of assets that are not subject to “cost recovery”.
Once an asset has been determined to be impaired, the amount of impairment is measured as: The asset's cost minus the fair value The asset's future cash inflows minus the book value The asset's book value minus the fair value The asset's cost minus the book value
In the case study of Company XYZ's challenges in accounting for goodwill and intangible assets impairment, which factor poses a risk to the value of intangible assets such as patents and software? A) Technological advancements B) Annual amortization C) Lack of impairment testing D) Economic stability
in calculating an impairment loss, which TWO of the following are correct? Assets should be carried at the higher of their carrying amount and recoverable amount Recoverable amount is the higher of value in use and fair value less costs of disposal Recoverable amount is the lower of value in use and fair value less costs of disposal Assets should be carried at the lower of their carrying amount and recoverable amount
1. For each of the following scenarios, indicate whether a long-term asset has been impaired (Y for yes and N for no) and, if so, the amount of the loss that should be recorded. Prepare any necessary journal entry. Do you have to subtract the carrying amount and value in use amounts for each? For the journal entries, I don't understand which journal entries you have to do, can you please explain, thank you.
Internally generated intangible assets are initially recorded at fair value. O True O False
Research and development is an internally developed intangible asset that should be: capitalized and amortized over its finite life. capitalized and reviewed for impairment over its indefinite life. expensed as incurred. treated differently from any of these choices.
