Answer:

According to IAS 36 Impairment of assets says that the asset must be recorded at the lower of:

  • Cost $26,000
  • Net realizable Value $23,000

The lower value is $23,000, which must write off value of inventory with an amount of $3000. So the journal entry would be:

Dr Impairment Losses $3000

Cr        Advances paid for inventory     $3000

This entry is the fair presentation of the actual value of the advances paid.
