Calculating the impairment cost is the same as under the Incurred Loss Model. For example, assume a company has an investment in Company A bonds with a carrying amount of $37,500. If their market value falls to $33,000, an impairment loss of $4,500 is indicated and the impairment cost calculated as follows:

[19] [20] At this point the cost to scrap the project and develop a new one was estimated to be SEK 11bn ($1.3bn). Not seen as an alternative, the development continued and the original budget of SEK 2.4bn was increased to 4bn. [21] In 2015 the project was still on its way to be fully implemented. SEK 4bn ($470m) [22] (ongoing)
GAAP net revenue was $1.36 billion and was flat to last year, while cost of revenue declined 13% to $600 million as the prior year included an impairment charge related to acquired intangibles.
However, failure to prioritize and address the debt can result in reduced maintainability, increased development costs, and risks to production systems. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Technical debt encompasses various design and implementation decisions that may optimize for the short term at the expense of future adaptability and maintainability.
