Practical Question 1 Accounting for Impairment
On 1 July 2019, Marvel Ltd acquired all the assets and liabilities of Strange Ltd. Strange Ltd has several operating divisions, including a frozen pie division that manufactures frozen pies for family dinners. The pie division is regarded as a separate cash-generating unit.
At 30 June 2020, the carrying amounts of the assets of the pie division were:
Factory
$300,000
Equipment
$100,000
Inventory
$250,000
Brand Moreish
$200,000
Goodwill
$90,000
There is a declining interest in Strange Ltds frozen pies due to a concern for the healthy eating, so the management of Marvel Ltd measured the recoverable amount of the pie division at 30 June 2020 determining it to be $790,000.
Inventory is measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value in accordance with AASB102 Inventories.
