On July 1, Arcola Company purchases equipment for $330,000. The equipment has an estimated useful life of 10 years and expected salvage value of $40,000. The company uses straight-line depreciation. Four years later, economic factors cause the fair value of the equipment to decline to $160,000. On this date, Arcola examines the equipment for impairment and estimates $185,000 in undiscounted expected cash inflows from this equipment.

Required:
a. Compute the annual depreciation expense relating to this equipment.
b. Compute the equipment's net book value at the end of the fourth year.
c. Apply the test of impairment to this equipment as of the end of the fourth year. Is the equipment impaired?

Answer:

a. $29,000

b. $214,000

c. Yes

Explanation:

a. Annual Depreciation expense:

= (Cost - salvage value)/ Useful life

= (330,000 - 40,000) / 10,000

= $29,000

b. Net book value at end of 4th year:

= Cost - 4 year depreciation

= 330,000 - (4 * 29,000)

= $214,000

c. One test to see if equipment is not impaired is that the Expected Undiscounted cashflows need to be higher than the net book value. This is not the case here as the Net Book value of $214,000 is higher than the expected Undiscounted cash inflows of $185,000. Equipment is therefore impaired.

A company is considering buying licenses for 12 megahertz of wireless spectrum in the 700 MHz range, which is suitable for delivering television to mobile phones. The 700 MHz signals can travel long distances and more easily penetrate walls and other obstacles. The acquisition cost is $150 million. In addition, because networks that operate in the 700 MHz range are less expensive to build than those in other portions of the spectrum, the company estimates annual costs of $15 million over the next 8 years and no salvage value. During the same period, the company expects to generate annual revenue of $18 million by offering television arid video to mobile-phone users. Calculate the net present worth of this investment and determine the acceptability of the investment if the company's minimum attractive rate of return is 15% per year.
