IAS 36 Impairment | Reversal of Impairment | Learn Allocation and Reversal of Impairment Losses — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00now let's do this topic which I say
- 0:04reversal of impairment and how much of
- 0:07the impairment can be reversed
- 0:09how much can be reversed this is
- 0:11actually what they want to ask you how
- 0:14much you can reverse
- 0:16so let's suppose that we create an
- 0:18example
- 0:21and asset
- 0:25was purchased
- 0:29on zero one zero one two thousand
- 0:34n
- 0:35for
- 0:40one million dollar
- 0:47life was 10 years
- 0:50life was 10 years I have not given you
- 0:53any residual value if residual value is
- 0:56not given you suppose it is zero and I
- 0:59have not given depreciation method as
- 1:01well if deposition method is not given
- 1:03you should be charging read the straight
- 1:06line method so we say that what will
- 1:08happen that on 0 1 0 1
- 1:122010
- 1:17the cost of the asset was 1 million
- 1:21and life is 10 years okay so your
- 1:26depreciation will go as
- 1:301 million divided by 10 100 000 you are
- 1:34charging depreciation per year
- 1:37and then what they will tell you in this
- 1:39situation
- 1:40they tell you that
- 1:45on zero one zero one
- 1:48two thousand
- 1:50thirteen
- 1:55the asset had
- 1:58recoverable amount
- 2:01of
- 2:03450 000 let's call like this
- 2:07450 000 so we need to see that what
- 2:12happened until 450 000 and how much is
- 2:15the impairment now I can calculate from
- 2:18here that if I say that 2010 I purchased
- 2:212010 11 12 and 12 have passed
- 2:26okay three years so let me make it you
- 2:29know
- 2:30um 550 000.
- 2:32so
- 2:34three years have passed so 2010 2011
- 2:382012. three years I've passed three
- 2:41hundred thousand depreciation we have
- 2:42charged so we can say that
- 2:45on zero one zero one twenty thirteen
- 2:49the carrying amount of the asset was
- 2:54seven hundred thousand because three
- 2:56year depreciation you have charged and
- 2:59like hundred thousand hundred thousand
- 3:00hundred thousand so carrying amount is
- 3:02six hundred thousand recoverable amount
- 3:04is five hundred and fifty thousand
- 3:07now there is definitely an impairment
- 3:10loss of 150 000 which is happening
- 3:13so this is your impairment loss here
- 3:17and you must record it you would say
- 3:19that and there is no evaluation Surplus
- 3:21so you say debit p l
- 3:24and credit non-current asset and you
- 3:27charge it 150 000 here and 150 000 here
- 3:35so on first of January 2013
- 3:39we made
- 3:40an impairment now you should remember
- 3:43and let me write it down here in some
- 3:46bold letters that
- 3:49whenever
- 3:51so that you don't forget whenever
- 3:52impairment
- 3:55or
- 3:56revaluation happens
- 3:59new depreciation
- 4:06amount should be calculated always
- 4:09remember never forget
- 4:11whenever you increase the value of the
- 4:14asset or you decrease the value of the
- 4:16asset you must find out you must find
- 4:19out a new depreciation amount okay
- 4:22because uh if the depreciation if the
- 4:26asset value has changed depreciation
- 4:28will also change so in our case what we
- 4:31say now that here the asset has now we
- 4:35reduced so on 0 1 0 1 2003
- 4:40asset value we bring down to
- 4:43five hundred and fifty thousand because
- 4:46we impaired it
- 4:48and the life now is seven years
- 4:52because three years have passed and
- 4:54seven years are there so I would say
- 4:56that the new depreciation is actually
- 4:59now 550
- 5:01000 divided by seven
- 5:03so 78 571 from now onward we will be
- 5:07charging 78
- 5:09571 as our as our depreciation
- 5:14previously our depreciation was hundred
- 5:16thousand after impairment your
- 5:19depreciation will be 78 571.
- 5:221 so you moved on
- 5:24then what happened that on 0 1 0 1
- 5:292015 like two years past 2013 2014 two
- 5:34years passed
- 5:36so you say that on zero one zero one two
- 5:39zero five
- 5:42the asset
- 5:48recoverable amount
- 5:50is 560 000.
- 5:54the asset goes up
- 5:57asset goes up
- 5:59now the question is that previously you
- 6:02have reversed the impairment amount I'm
- 6:05sorry you have charged the impairment
- 6:07this is pnm and this is actually your
- 6:10impairment loss okay
- 6:14so you charged an impairment loss of 150
- 6:18000. now asset has gone up again and we
- 6:22need to reverse the impairment I can
- 6:24show you the situation this was like
- 6:27this and now it is going up now the my
- 6:31question is that how much of how much of
- 6:34impairment can I reverse okay let me
- 6:37show you the numbers in details so on 0
- 6:401 0 1
- 6:422013 and by the way this is 2013.
- 6:46I'll show you the detailed calculation
- 6:48so that you never forget you already
- 6:50have brought down your carrying amount
- 6:52to
- 6:53550 000.
- 6:55and your depreciation for 2013 was this
- 7:0178 571 so it means that end of the year
- 7:05the value the book value was you know uh
- 7:10471 429
- 7:13then what will happen that this is 2013
- 7:16then you must charge depreciation for
- 7:192014 also the depreciation for 2014
- 7:23again the same number
- 7:25and then you make this one and this is
- 7:28actually the value coming up as
- 7:32the value on
- 7:3431st December 2014 and actually you can
- 7:39call it zero one zero one twenty fifteen
- 7:42it's the same thing okay you can call it
- 7:4431st December 2014 or you call it 21st
- 7:48January 2015 it's the same thing so this
- 7:52is the value of the asset in the book
- 7:55okay I mean you were depreciating with
- 7:58100 you brought it impaired and then you
- 8:01said that from this date the asset will
- 8:04be 550
- 8:06000 and two years passed because the
- 8:08reversal of impairment time comes after
- 8:10two years on first January 2015. so you
- 8:13should see that what was the situation
- 8:15on 1st January 2015. the situation on
- 8:181st January 2015 is that I
- 8:22charged two years depreciation
- 8:25I charge two-year depreciation first
- 8:28year you charge depreciation 78 second
- 8:31year you charge depreciation since 78
- 8:33and in your books it is 392. and on this
- 8:37situation in Market it is 560. this is
- 8:41what we said that the market value goes
- 8:43to 560 000. so apparently it looks like
- 8:48apparently it looks like that the asset
- 8:51there is an increase in the value of
- 8:52asset by 167
- 8:55000 this is what it looks like that
- 8:57asset has gone up because when I started
- 9:00charging this depreciation my book value
- 9:03would have been 392 857 Market is 560.
- 9:08the difference between these two it
- 9:10looks like the increase in the value can
- 9:13I take this increase or yes or no this
- 9:16is the question now what you should be
- 9:18saying if the value has increased so so
- 9:22impairment happened before now there is
- 9:24an increase now there is an upward
- 9:25movement you know like it was like this
- 9:28one million you suddenly dropped it you
- 9:30brought it to a 550 or whatever and then
- 9:33you use further depreciated it it became
- 9:36392.
- 9:39it you started with 1 million
- 9:42you drop it down to 550.
- 9:45then now it is 392 and now it goes up it
- 9:48goes up to 560. so this is the increase
- 9:52so
- 9:54at the end of 2015 after five years have
- 9:58passed 2010 I mean beginning of 215
- 10:01sorry 2010 11 12 13 14 5 years passed
- 10:05the asset in the books is 392. asset in
- 10:08the market has increased in value so it
- 10:11looks like that this is an upward
- 10:13increase in the value you call it
- 10:14reversal of impairment
- 10:17you know listen if you have some asset
- 10:20and its price go its value goes up you
- 10:22call it revaluation because there was no
- 10:25impairment but if you have an asset
- 10:27which you brought down which you
- 10:29impaired in past and now it goes up you
- 10:31call it reversal of impairment so
- 10:33reversal of impairment is happening
- 10:37apparently it looks like that the value
- 10:39of the asset has gone up by 167 so it is
- 10:43possible that it comes to your mind that
- 10:46I increase the asset with 167.
- 10:49because the value has gone up with 167
- 10:52the you know Book value is 392 Market is
- 10:56560. let's make it so can we say it uh
- 11:00again on impairment no reversal of
- 11:02impairment no
- 11:05no so the question is that what you
- 11:08should think always when you started
- 11:12it was 1 million let's suppose for a
- 11:15while that this impairment has or this
- 11:18impairment or all this story has not
- 11:20happened it had not happened
- 11:22what you were doing you were charging
- 11:24depreciation of 100 000 according to
- 11:27your original plan you were charging
- 11:29hundred thousand dollar depreciation how
- 11:31many years have passed five years have
- 11:33passed 2010 11 12 13 and 14 only 5 years
- 11:3915 is just beginning so five year five
- 11:43hundred thousand
- 11:46and
- 11:47the book value would have been five
- 11:49hundred thousand
- 11:51we say that imagine
- 11:53that there has been no impairment I'm
- 11:56sorry there has been no impairment in
- 11:58past if I had kept the asset at my
- 12:02original plan without any these
- 12:04impairment things it would have been 500
- 12:07000 and how much it is now now it is
- 12:10392. so you can only take it from here
- 12:14you can only take this number to this
- 12:16number
- 12:17you cannot come to this number okay 560
- 12:21you cannot take you cannot take 560. you
- 12:24will only take it up till this amount so
- 12:27what you say that your reversal of
- 12:29impairment amount will be 500 000.
- 12:32minus 392 000. 107143
- 12:39debit non-current asset
- 12:41credit profit and loss straight
- 12:44with one zero seven one four three this
- 12:48is called reversal of impairment you
- 12:50should calculate the book value of the
- 12:53asset you should calculate the book
- 12:55value of the asset you should calculate
- 12:58the amount of the asset in the absence
- 13:00of any impairment
- 13:02that let's suppose that this impairment
- 13:04had not happened let's suppose for a
- 13:06while how much my asset would have been
- 13:09you cannot take it more than that okay I
- 13:12mean if there had been no impairment
- 13:13asset would have been 500 000 so if I
- 13:16make it five if I reverse 107. not 167.
- 13:22you cannot reverse 167. you can only
- 13:24reverse 107. because after reversing 107
- 13:28it comes to the point where there has
- 13:31been no impairment if I just dab it
- 13:34non-current asset with 107 it will
- 13:36become 500 000 and 500 000 links no
- 13:40impairment I am going to the same plan
- 13:42so that is called reversal of impairment
- 13:46please but you said that we originally
- 13:50impaired 150 and now we are only
- 13:53reversing one zero seven so you think
- 13:56that it is not fully reversed no my
- 13:59friend it is fully reversed
- 14:01because listen when you said that your
- 14:04asset was originally one million and in
- 14:07the absence of any impairment
- 14:13money
- 14:18in the absence of any impairment in five
- 14:21years you would have charged only 500
- 14:24000 depreciation according to your
- 14:26original plan so your asset would have
- 14:28been 500 000 you say I don't need
- 14:31impairment okay I just don't want I just
- 14:34want to forget about impairment if you
- 14:36want to forget about impairment what
- 14:38should have been your balance sheet
- 14:40value
- 14:41let's suppose that I just don't want
- 14:43impairment
- 14:45so your asset would have been 500 000.
- 14:48so I'm just bringing it by five hundred
- 14:50thousand when you charge 107 it becomes
- 14:53500 000. if you take it to 560
- 14:57if you take it to 560 you are actually
- 15:00doing some revaluation
- 15:02because now you are making this 500 000
- 15:06asset on the balance sheet you are
- 15:07taking it to 560. so actually if you if
- 15:11you make this full 167 it looks like
- 15:15that you are charging revaluation like
- 15:17you are increasing the value of the
- 15:19asset
- 15:20when I am reversing the impairment my
- 15:23purpose is not to increase the value of
- 15:25asset my purpose is to take away the
- 15:29effect of impairment
- 15:31listen I'm I'm repeating it again
- 15:33reversal of impairment my aim is not to
- 15:37increase the value of asset my aim is to
- 15:41bring back the asset to its original
- 15:43condition
- 15:45what it would have been without
- 15:47impairment so by doing one zero seven I
- 15:51bring it to 500 000 which it would have
- 15:54been without any impairment
- 15:57I don't want to make it to 560. because
- 16:01if I take it to 560 I'm charging 60 000
- 16:04of revaluation and this is not my
- 16:06objective I'm not increasing the asset I
- 16:09just say give me my asset at 500 000
- 16:12that's all
- 16:13if there had been no yes sir so we have
- 16:16to follow two assumptions right one with
- 16:18the impairment and one without the
- 16:21impairment yeah of course and that's why
- 16:23I put the two numbers
- 16:27you just have to see that when you did
- 16:29impairment you came to this point 392.
- 16:32if there had been no impairment let's
- 16:34suppose no impairment what the asset
- 16:36value would have been only the
- 16:39difference of this will be reversal
- 16:43because our objective is our objective
- 16:46is to take the asset back to the
- 16:49original position where it should have
- 16:51been it should have been at 500.
- 16:54let there be no understood it should
- 16:56have been 500 so let's take it to 500.
- 16:59anything over and above if you want to
- 17:01do that would be called revaluation
- 17:07so this is what is reversal of
- 17:09impairment now what we need to remember
- 17:11we already know that uh
- 17:15um
- 17:15the impairment loss and the revaluation
- 17:19Surplus issue revaluation Surplus
- 17:23and then we also know that reversal of
- 17:27impairment
- 17:30then we talked about impairment
- 17:32[Music]
- 17:34and cgu
- 17:37then we also talked about you know uh
- 17:40impairment of Goodwill of course that
- 17:43was a little thing that it it cannot be
- 17:46reversed so your is 36 this is all what
- 17:50you need to remember of course when we
- 17:52start doing questions there will be some
- 17:55more things which we need to focus at
