Answer:

Debit : Impairment loss $1,250,000

Credit : Accumulated impairment loss $1,250,000

Explanation:

Impairment of an asset happens when, the Carrying Amount of an Asset is greater than the Net Realizable Value of an asset.

Carrying Amount is Cost of asset less Accumulated depreciation. Carrying Amount for the equipment is $10,000,000 ($11,250,000 - $1,250,000).

The Net Realizable Value of an asset is the higher of Fair Value of Asset and Future Value. For the equipment the Net Realizable Value is $8,750,000

Then, since Carrying Amount ($10,000,000) > Net Realizable Value ($8,750,000), the equipment is impaired.

Impairment loss will be $1,250,000 ($10,000,000 - $8,750,000).

The journal entry to record the impairment loss would be :

Debit : Impairment loss $1,250,000

Credit : Accumulated impairment loss $1,250,000

Answer: 15%

Explanation:

IRR is the discount rate that makes the NPV equal zero. Required rates of return that are less than the IRR will therefore result in a positive NPV and those that are higher will result in a negative NPV.

Use Excel to find the IRR.

= IRR(-328325,115000,115000,115000,115000)

= 15%

As the required rate of 13% is less than the IRR of 15%, the new machine will have a positive NPV.
