Fed [463]

Answer:

100 units

Explanation:

Given that,

Annual demand (D) = 500 units

Ordering cost (S) = $5 per order

Holding cost (H) = $0.50 per unit per year

Optimal order quantity(Q):

=\sqrt{\frac{2\times D\times S}{H}}

=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 500\times 5}{0.50}}

=\sqrt{\frac{5,000}{0.50}}

=\sqrt{10,000}

      = 100 units

So, the optimal number of diamonds to be ordered is 100 units.

In measuring an impairment loss for a financial asset under U.S. GAAP and under IFRS, the carrying value of the financial asset
Vitek1552 [10]

In measuring an impairment loss for a financial asset under U.S. GAAP and under IFRS, the carrying value of the financial asset would be compared to:

under U.S. GAAP Fair value and under IFRS recoverable amount.

Explanation:

In US GAAP, the cost of financial asset depreciation is calculated as the difference between carried value and fair value; in compliance with IFRS, a loss of financial asset impairment is defined as the difference between carrying value and the percentage of the asset that can be recouped.

In compliance with US-based ASC 360-10-35-20. The recovery of a historically identified impairment loss (or "restoration") is forbidden because an item is deemed to have a new cost base after an impairment loss has been registered.
