PROBLEM 8:

Bonbon Company purchased a manufacturing plant building on January 2010, for P5.2M. The
building has been depreciated using the straight-line method with 30 year useful life and a
10% residual value.

Bonbon’s manufacturing operations has experienced significant downturn for the past two
years because of loss of significant portion of the market because the competitor has
introduced a more superior product that the company’s.

On December 31, 2019, Bonbon estimates that the building has a remaining useful life of 15
years, and that the net cash flows from the use of the building will be P200,000 per year with
no change in the estimated salvage value. The fair value less cost to sell of the asset was set
at P1,560,000.

The prevailing discount rate at that time was 10%

PROBLEM 9:

Legaspi Corp. is assessing one of its operating departments for impairment as of December
31, 2019. The operating department comprise of several group of assets with aggregate
carrying amount of P7,380,000 as of the testing date.

Individual cash flows related to each asset comprising the department cannot be ascertained
thus you suggested that the company treat the operating department as a single cash
generating unit for the purpose of applying PAS 36, Impairment of assets. A cash generating
unit as defined by the said standards is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates
cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of
assets.

2022 3,900,000 3,300,000
2023 1,200,000 900,000

The fair value of the group of assets net of estimated disposition costs was determined to be
P5,070,000. The prevailing pre-tax discount rate appropriate for this analysis is 5%.
