Probst Company acquired a trademark several years ago at a cost of $60,000. Probst has never considered the trademark to be impaired. However, at the end of 2019, Probst has determined that the trademark is impaired because of a change in market conditions. It estimates that the trademark has a fair value of $40,000 at the end of 2019.
Required:
1. Prepare Probst’s journal entry (if any) to record the impairment of its trademark at the end of 2019.
2. Next Level Assume Probst uses IFRS. If Probst estimates that the cost of selling the trademark is zero but the value-in-use is $45,000, prepare Probst’s journal entry to record the impairment of its trademark at the end of 2019.
3. Assume, instead, that Probst estimated that the trademark had a fair value of $70,000 at the end of 2019. How would Probst account for this if it were using (a) U.S. GAAP or (b) IFRS?
On January 1, 2020, Russell Company purchased a copyright for $2,000,000, having an
estimated useful life of 16 years and no salvage value. On October 15, 2020, Russell paid
$200,000 legal fees in an unsuccessful infringement lawsuit of the copyright. On March 1o,
2021, Russell paid $300,000 for legal fees in a successful defense of the copyright. This
defense does not change the useful life of the copyright. On December 31, 2021, it is
estimated that the undiscounted sum of future cash flows associated with the copyright is
$1,700,000 and its fair value is $1,450,000. Russell uses the straight-line method for
amortization of all intangible assets.
Instructions
Write all the journal entries related with the copyright during these two years. Be sure to
show all calculations and round to the nearest dollar. Russell's fiscal year-end is December
31.
