Hello :
I am from china company and we have a requirement :make the provision ( some country call this impairment) for the fixed assets.
For example , we have a machine which net value 20000, ( original value 100000, life time 10 years , depreciated 8 years , savage value 0) . It is not used now and we make the provision 20000 and make its net value zero. So it is not depreciated anymore . I want to known how to make the provision and record it on the fixed asset . It can be reverse to the asset gain and lose account automatically when we sold it out in future .
