@accountingb4: Do you know what happens when the value of a business asset falls below its carrying amount? 🤔📉 Impairment of Assets occurs when an asset's carrying amount is higher than its recoverable amount. 📌 Example: A machine has a carrying amount of ₦500,000, but its recoverable amount is ₦350,000. Impairment Loss: ₦500,000 − ₦350,000 = ₦150,000 Remember: Under IAS 36, impairment ensures that assets are not reported above their recoverable amounts.
