WOODFORD CHIRSTIAN LIFE FELLOWSHIP Notes to the Financial Statements Icontlnuedj Year ended 31 December 2020 Accounting policies {conllnued) Tangible assets (conllnued) An increase in the carrwng amoLJnt of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carryng amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except lo which it offsets any previoLJS revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities. Depreciation Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: Equipment 25°/o straight line Impalmient of flxed assets A review for indicators of impairment is earried out al each reporting dale, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal al each reporting date. For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible lo estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash- generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwll acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generaling units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned lo those units.
