Machinery that was purchased for R4 000 000, with a carrying amount of R3 700 000, was considered to be undervalued by R600 000. The machine has a remaining using life of 5 years and carries no residual value. The summer rain in the Limpopo region resulted in multiple flash floods on Company B's premises.

Subsequently, there has been a significant reduction in production capacity of this machine and this is due to the constant breakdowns and repairs that have been required since the floods On 30 September 2020, a mechanical specialist has assessed the condition of the machine and has determined the value in use of this machine as R2 400 000, however this machine has a fair value of R2 000 000 and the cost to sell is negligible.
