QUESTION 4: (30 MARKS) PART A: (15 MARKS) (i) Briefly explain the accounting process relating to asset impairment. (ii) At the end of year 2015, Verma Company tests a machine for impairment. The machine has a carrying amount of Rs 20 million. It has an estimated remaining useful life of 5 years. Because of the unique nature of the machine, there is little market-related information on which to base a recoverable amount based on fair value. As a result, Verma determines the machine s recoverable amount should be based on value-in-use. To determine value-in-use, Verma develops an estimate of future cash flows based on internal company information, based on cash budgets and reflecting cash inflows from the machine and estimated costs necessary to maintain the machine in its current condition. Verma uses a discount rate of 8 per cent. Verma s analysis indicates that its future cash flows will be Rs 4 million each for the five years and it will receive a residual value of Rs 1 ACCOUNTING AND AUDITING PRACTICE- ACCF 3121 Page 7 of 8
