Impairment Loss

VVaishna10y ago
A Cash Generating unit comprises the following: $M Building 30 Plant and Equipment 6 Goodwill 10 Current Assets 20 ---- 66 === Impairment review has estimated the recoverable amount of CGU to $50 M. I'm having troubles in calculating the pro-rata part. I want to know this simple question first before going for difficult ones.

After impairing goodwill down to zero, there is a further 6 more to impair and that is spread pro-rata amidst the building and the PPE Building takes 30/36 x 6 = 5 and PPE takes 6/36 x 6 = 1 So the assets after impairment are: Building 25 PPE 5 CA 20 Total 50 OK now?
