Problem 9
On January 1, 2006, Brent Corporation purchased a factory for P1,800,000 and machinery for
P10,000,000. It is depreciating the factory over 30 years and the machinery over 20 years, both by the
straight-line method to zero residual values. Late in 2011, because of technological changes in the
industry and reduced selling prices for its products, the company believes that its asset(s) may be
impaired and will have a remaining useful life of 8 years. The cash flows from the factory and machinery
are not separable, and are independent of the company’s other activities. The company estimates that
the asset will produce cash inflows of P4,000,000 and will incur cash outflows of P2,950,000 each year
for the next 8 years. Furthermore, the factory and the machinery can be sold at P5,250,000 after
incurring broker’s fees , commissions and other charges amounting to P250,000. The company’s
discount rate is 12%.
The present value of P1 at 12% for 8 periods is 0.4039
The present value of an ordinary annuity of P1 at 12% for 8 periods is at 4.9676
