Question
6-22
Killroy Company owns a trade name that was purchased in an acquisition of McClellan Company. The trade name has a book value of $3,500,000, but according to GAAP, it is assessed for impairment on an annual basis. To perform this impairment test, Killroy must estimate the fair value of the trade name. It has developed the following cash flow estimates related to the trade name based on internal information. Each cash flow estimate reflects Killroy’s estimate of annual cash flows over the next 9 years. The trade name is assumed to have no salvage value after the 9 years. (Assume the cash flows occur at the end of each year.)

(The table mentioned in the question is not there or is not in the supported format the given answer is based without using that table mentioned)
Each cash flow estimate reflects Killroy’s estimate of annual cash flows over the next 9 years
Now if $390000 is received per year for the next 9 years then
$390000*Annualised discounting rate for 9 years @ 9%
=$390000*5.99525 = $2338146.2887
Now if $636800 is received per year for the next 9 years then
=$636800*5.99525 = $3817775.2
Now if $755900 is received per year for the next 9 years then
=$755900 * 5.99525 = $4531809.475
Therefore, estimated fair value of the trade name = ($2338146.2887*20%)+($3817775.2*50%)+($4531809.475*30%) = $3,736,060
