    Hi sir,
    Just a quick clarification,

    Asset Held for sales is carried at the lower of Carrying amount and fair value less cost of sale.

    i know that when Fv less cost of sales is lower there is impairment However,
    Say that the amount lower of these two is the Carrying amount. Is there a gain through P/L?

    I’m not sure that I understand!

    If the asset is held at carrying value because it’s lower than fair value, then …. it’s held at carrying value! No gain, no impairment

    Does that answer this question that I don’t understand?
