Lets say premises cost $100,000.
Straight line depreciation @ 2% = ($2,000/year)
Current accumulated depreciated is $16,000

Impairment loss $20,000.

my question is will impairment loss affect my depreciate amount next year?

Yes, it will most certainly affect your depreciation in the following year. Just take your net, adjusted carrying balance, divide by the remaining useful life, re-compute deprecation expense/month (or year) & call it a day
