Expected useful life of the machine is five years, the straight-line depreciation method will be applied. On 1 July, 2013 a major inspection of € 250.000 was necessary and leads to an extension of two years of the originally expected useful life. A full deduction of the VAT is possible and has been made. The accounting period is the calendar year. You are to assume that the following values of the fair value (=recoverable amount) are correct: 31 December 2012: € 450.000; 31 December 2013: € 800.000, 31 December 2014: unknown FV.
