Cost $325,000 Accumulated depreciation to date $175,000 Estimated future cash flows, undiscounted $140,000 Present value of estimated future cash flows $110,000 Fair value $125,000 Costs of disposal $ 9,000 Bombal Inc. intends to continue using the asset for the next three years, with no expected residual value at the end of that period. Bombal uses straight-line depreciation.
