E8-42. Computing and Assessing Plant Asset Impairment
Zeibart Company purchased equipment for $180,000 on July 1,2019, with an estimated useful life of 10 years and expected salvage value of $20,000. Straight-line depreciation is used. On July 1.2023, economic factors cause the fair value of the equipment to decline to $72,000.
