What is Impairment?
Asset impairment is a current market value that is less than the carrying value as recorded
on the company's balance sheet.

If the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is described as impaired. The
entity must reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its recoverable amount.

IAS 33 – EPS
what is EPS?
Basic EPS can be calculated by:

We need to take weighted average number of share because of change in the total number of
shares during the year.

2. Bonus issue

3. Right issue

4. Stock split

5. Stock contraction

exercised
