Answer:

c. $ 0 $ 13 million

Explanation:

Under the U.S GAAP, if the sum of future cash flows is exceeded than the book value. So, no impairment loss would be recognized . Hence it would be zero

And, According to the IFRS, if the book value is more than the fair value, than the difference of  book value and the fair value is considered

In mathematically,  

= Book value - fair value  

= $195 million - $182 million

= $13 million
