    Hello all.
    I need help with the following question (reference Plethora Case BPP Kit 52-53):

    52.
    Which two of the following statements regarding the reversal of impairment losses are correct:
    a – The reversal of goodwill impairment should be recognized in other comprehensive Income;
    b – The reversal of impairment losses on revalued assets should be recognized in other comprehensive income;
    c – An impairment loss can only be reversed if there is a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount of the impaired assets;
    d – Only impairment losses on non-current assets can be reversed.

    53.
    What will be the amount credited to the statement of profit or loss in respect of the reversal of impairment loss in the year ended 31 December 20X9?
    a – $215,000;
    b – $155,000;
    c – $125,000;
    d – $85,000.

    Relevant information:
    Plethora owns a retail business, which is considered a separate cash-generating unit, which suffered a difficulty trading period in the previous year and was subject to an impairment review at 31 December 20X8. At that date, an impairment loss of $160,000 was recognized. The directors of Plethora Plc believe the indicators of impairment have been reversed by 31 December 20X9 and wish to reverse the previous impairment to the maximum extent possible.

    Relevant financial information in respect of the retail business is as follows:
    CV at 31.12.20X8 before impairment:
    Assets
    Building 900
    Plant and equipment 300
    Goodwill 40

    Impairment loss at 31.12.20X8:
    Assets
    Building 100
    Plant and equipment 20
    Goodwill 40

    Estimated FV at 31.12.20X9:
    Assets
    Building 925
    Plant and equipment 310
    Goodwill 60

    CV at 31.12.20X9 had no impairment occurred:
    Assets
    Building 875
    Plant and equipment 290
    Goodwill 40
