Impairment

This query is : Resolved 

20 March 2009 Hi,

How to treat the impairment loss in p&l and B/s. any effect in MAT calculation.

Thanks in advance

20 March 2009 Dear Praveeri,
An impairment loss should be recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss immediately, unless the asset is carried at revalued amount in accordance with another Accounting Standard (see Accounting Standard (AS) 10, Accounting for Fixed Assets), in which case any impairment loss of a revalued asset should be treated as a revaluation decrease under that Accounting Standard. However, an impairment loss on a revalued asset is recognised directly against any revaluation surplus for the asset to the extent that the impairment loss does not exceed the amount held in the revaluation surplus for that same asset. When the amount estimated for an impairment loss is greater than the carrying amount of the asset to which it relates, an enterprise should recognise a liability if, and only if, that is required by another Accounting Standard.

20 March 2009 Furthure MAT effect depends on exsistence of revaluation reserve.
