PPE 200000
Goodwill 50000
Patent 20000
NCA 30000
Recoverable amount 200000.
Can you please show me how the balance is pro-rated ?
Thank You!

Impairment Pro-rata
I presume that this is an impairment question!
We have carrying values of $300,000 and a recoverable amount of $200,000 so we need to impair by $100,000
First, reduce any individual asset that is identified as being impaired - in your post, this doesn't apply
Next, eliminate the intangible asset of goodwill - in full if the impairment exceeds the goodwill figure and in your example, the impairment $100,000 is greater than the goodwill balance $50,000 so that leaves us with just $50,000 more to impair
NCA are always carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value (recoverable amount) so we can't impair those
That leaves us with $50,000 to impair against PPE $200,000 and patent $20,000 in the ratio 200:20 or 10:1
So, of that $50,000, 10/11 x $50,000 ($45,454) is allocated against the PPE and 1/11 x $50,000 ($5,455) is allocated against the patent
OK?
