EQUIPMENT HELD FOR SALE
NOTE 6 – EQUIPMENT HELD FOR SALE
 
The Company measures long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less associated costs to sell these assets.  The assets held for sale is no longer subject to depreciation as they are not used in operations. As of December 31, 2012, the Company committed to a plan to sell certain ESR equipment that was used to produce forged products for the high performance components market as equipment held for sale on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company evaluated equipment for impairment at December 31, 2012. The Company compared the estimated fair values of the equipment to its carrying value with impairment indicators and recorded an impairment charge for the excess of carrying value over fair value. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company incurred an impairment charge in operations of $2,206,253 on ESR equipment. Although the Company is actively seeking and negotiating with potential buyers, the Company can give no assurances that the sale process will be successful and, if it were successful, there are no assurances as to the amount or timing of any potential proceeds.
