| Based on the future operation plans and the capacity evaluation, the Group assessed that a portion of plant, equipment and other equipment in the packaging segment, testing segment and EMS segment were not qualified for the production needs and, therefore, recognized an impairment loss of NT$126,766 thousand, NT$405,399 thousand and NT$146,570 thousand (US$4,787 thousand) under the line item of other operating income and expenses (Note 25) for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively. Part of the recoverable amounts were determined by the fair value less cost of disposal, of which the fair value was based on the recent quoted prices of assets with similar age and obsolescence provided by vendors in secondary market, which represented Level 3 inputs because the secondary market was not active. The recoverable amount of the other impaired plant and equipment was determined using value in use and the Group expected to derive nearly no cash flows from these assets. Each class of property, plant and equipment was depreciated on a straight-line basis over the following useful lives:
