    b. $87000

    Explanation:

    The book value is the value of an asset after deducting accumulated depreciation and fair value of an asset is the market-driven value of the asset which in most cases is the real value.

    Accounting to IAS 16 (Property, plant and equipment) non-current assets should be recorded either the cost model or the revaluation model but since market-driven values are more relevant and reliable entities opt to record their assets at fair value. Secondly Fair Value Accounting requires entities to use market values as a basis for recording certain assets.

    In this case the fair value of the asset is greater than the book value. Therefore, asset received by Carla Vista Co. is recorded at fair value (i. e at $87000).
