The above was the situation of the statement of financial position of the company when it was signed at the board of directors meeting. During further review to sign off the audit file, it was discovered that the classification of some of the assets as impaired was due to wrong classification and the value had actually increased due to a new road network in the location. This affected the impairment losses for the year. The new value of the buildings affected and shown in the note above as available from market survey had actually grown to ₦8.5 million within the period under review.

CR – Mar 2023 – L3 – Q3a – Non-current assets: sundry standards (IAS 16, IAS 23, IAS 20 and IAS 40) ,IAS 36: Impairment of Assets,

Discuss the impairment of a printing machine owned by Dajanso Plc, including necessary computations.

Dajanso Plc owns a number of printing shops across the country. On 1 January 2021, the carrying amount of Dajanso’s largest printing machine was GH¢65 million. The machine had a remaining useful life of five years and a residual value of GH¢7 million using the cost model. Due to a fall in demand for printed books, management conducted an impairment review of the printing machine on 30 June 2021.

At this date, the estimated selling price was GH¢55 million, including GH¢4 million, which would be received after reconditioning the asset. Agent fees would be 5% of the appropriate fair price. If the machine is kept in use, it is estimated to generate real cash flows of GH¢20 million a year over its remaining life (now estimated to be three years), with a revised residual value of GH¢6 million. The following discount rates are applicable:

Rate Type Pre-tax Nominal Pre-tax Real Post-tax Nominal Post-tax Real
Discount Rate (p.a.) 11.9% 8.3% 10.5% 6.6%

Required:
In line with IAS 16 Property, Plant, and Equipment and IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, recommend how Dajanso would account for the plant in its financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021. Show appropriate computations where necessary.

Provide accounting treatment for Ayew Plc's plant reclassification under IFRS 5.

Depreciation rate (straight line to nil residual value) 10%
At 31 January 2022:

At 31 July 2022:
Recoverable amount 15.2
