    is that a answer?

    because equipment is purchased in 2005 and in 2007 it was depreciated and although it was a 6 years useful life we depreciate 12million amount over the 4 year and depreciated expense will be 3 . and at the end of 31 dec 2009 ac dep will be 9. and 12-9=3 million should be remain at the end. Bingo?? 🙂

    What the question tells us is that those assets were originally purchased and now depreciated for 2 years and they have a carrying value of $45 as at date of acquisition and a fair value of $57 with a 4 year remaining useful life

    So, for the goodwill calculation, there is a fair value adjustment of $12 and that figure will be written off over the remaining 4 year useful life at the rate of $12 / 4 = $3 each year

    Is that OK for you?
