The study tested the relationship between a set of internal and external indicators of the impairment of fixed assets and the decision of recognition of the impairment loss of fixed assets.

And tested the determinants of the decision of recognition of the impairment of fixed assets.

Based on logistic regression analysis, the results indicate that the indicator of the increase in the book value of equity over its market value, is considered the most relevant indicator of the decision of recognition of the impairment loss of fixed assets.

The findings of the study provide evidence that firm size, the density of fixed assets and the level of liquidity are positively related to the decision of recognition of the impairment loss of fixed assets.
