    Dears, I hope you doing well

    I’ve this question and I need the explanation of the answer please , I need to learn not just the correct answer, Thanks in advance…

    Lollipop SA held a cash generating unit at $850,000. There was evidence of impairment at the year end and so Lollipop determined that the cash generating units fair value was $ 900,000, but to sell the unit, Lollipop would incur costs of $75,000. The discounted present value of the future cash flows of the cash generating unit was $ 775,000.

    What impairment should Lollipop recognise in its statement of profit or loss in relation to the cash generating unit?

    A. $25,000
    B. $nil
    C. $75,000
    D. $100,000

    Thank you so much , I think this is the correct answer , the main key here as you mentioned is RA should be the higher of i. FV less cost to sell or ii. PV of its value in use.

    Thanks again

    I will post more questions and I will be very happy if you help me as you did now
