    Since the fair value of the division is less than the carrying value of the division so the loss on impairment is recorded

    The journal entry to record the impairment of the goodwill is shown below:

    Loss on impairment A/c Dr $30,000

    To Goodwill A/c $30,000

    (Being loss on impairment is recorded)

    The computation is shown below:

    = Carrying value - fair value

    = $300,000 - $270,000

    = $30,000
