    Hello again Mike

    May i ask why is the net assets taken for calculating the impairment is from the “Total Asset”?I’ve done other past year but others using “Total Equity” to do the calculation

    It’s because the question says..Impairment test on cash generating unit , without liabilities…..

    CGU is the keyword?

    No, the key words are “without liabilities” ie just the assets
