Yuan Inc. has a large piece of machinery, and management has determined there is potential impairment. This piece of machinery has
independent cash inflows. The following information relates to the machine:
• Net book value is $18 million.
• The machine could be sold for $10 million less a 11% commission.

would require annual maintenance costs of $300,000 a year. The equipment could be sold for $100,000 at the end of the five
years.
