Impairments
When the carrying amount of an asset is not recoverable, a
company records a write-off referred to as an impairment.
Events leading to an impairment:
a. Significant decrease in the fair value of an asset.
b. Significant change in the manner in which an asset is used.
c.
Impairments
Measuring Impairments
1. Review events for possible impairment.
2. If the review indicates impairment, apply the recoverability test. If
the sum of the expected future net cash flows from the long-lived
asset is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an
impairment has occurred.
3. Assuming an impairment, the impairment loss is the amount by
which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of
the asset. The fair value is the market value or the present value
of expected future net cash flows.

Depletion
Natural resources, often called wasting assets, include
petroleum, minerals, and timber.
They have two main features:
1. complete removal (consumption) of the asset, and

Depletion
Establishing a Depletion Base
Computation of the depletion base involves four factors:
(1) Acquisition cost.
(2) Exploration costs.
(3) Development costs.
(4) Restoration costs.
11-34
Depletion
Write-off of Resource Cost
Normally, companies compute depletion on a units-ofproduction method (activity approach). Depletion is a function
of the number of units extracted during the period.
Calculation:
Total cost Residual value
= Depletion
Depletion
Illustration: MaClede Co. acquired the right to use 1,000
acres of land in Alaska to mine for silver. The lease cost is
$50,000, and the related exploration costs on the property are
$100,000. Intangible development costs incurred in opening
the mine are $850,000. MaClede estimates that the mine will

Depletion
If MaClede extracts 25,000 ounces in the first year, then the
depletion for the year is $250,000 (25,000 ounces x $10).

Liquidating Dividends - Dividends greater than the

Illustration: Callahan Mining had a retained earnings balance
of $1,650,000, accumulated depletion on mineral properties of
$2,100,000, and share premium of $5,435,493. Callahans board
declared a dividend of $3 a share on the 1,000,000 shares
outstanding. It records the $3,000,000 cash dividend as follows.

RELEVANT FACTS

The accounting for plant asset disposals is the same under GAAP
and IFRS.
RELEVANT FACTS
11-55
RELEVANT FACTS
11-56
Under IFRS, companies can use either the historical cost model or
the revaluation model. GAAP does not permit revaluations of
property, plant, and equipment or mineral resources.
In testing for impairments of long-lived assets, GAAP uses a twostep model to test for impairments (details of the GAAP impairment
test is presented in the About the Numbers discussion). As long as
future undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying amount of the
asset, no impairment is recorded. The IFRS impairment test is
stricter. However, unlike GAAP, reversals of impairment losses are
permitted.
