QUESTION 2: HURON LTD

Huron Ltd has identified an indication of impairment and is conducting an impairment review. The carrying amount of cash-generating unit is as follows on 31 Dec, 2021:

Goodwill

900,000

Property

2,000,000

Plant and equipment

1,500,000

Computers

600,000

Patents

300,000

Net current assets (net realizable value)

450,000

5,750,000

The whole of the company is considered to be a single cash-generating unit (CGU).

If a company continues its operations, it is estimated to receive 950,000 net cash-flows annually at the end of the year for the duration of next 4 years. The discount rate is calculated to be 7%.

Fair value less cost to sell for CGU is estimated to be 3,050,000.

The net realizable value of the property is 1,300,000 only.

For computers, only half of the value can be recovered. Net Current Assets are recovered in full.
