Goodwill Impairment Test
FASB ASC paragraph 350-20-35 requires impairment be
tested annually.
All goodwill must be assigned to a reporting unit.
Impairment should be tested in a two-step process.
Step 1: Does potential impairment exist?
Step 2: What is the amount of goodwill impairment?

Saabs identifiable net assets was $375,000 on this date.

Review Question
The first step in determining goodwill impairment involves
comparing the

(goodwill excluded).
b. fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount
(goodwill excluded).
c. implied value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount
(goodwill included).

(goodwill included).

consideration.

Value of Assets and Liabilities Acquired
Identifiable assets acquired (including intangibles other
than goodwill) and liabilities assumed should be recorded at
their fair values at the date of acquisition.
Any excess of total cost over the sum of amounts assigned

to identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill.
Under current GAAP, in-process R&D is measured and

recorded at fair value as an asset on the acquisition date.

Bargain Purchase
When the fair values of identifiable net assets (assets less
liabilities) exceeds the total cost of the acquired company,
the acquisition is a bargain.
In the past, FASB required that most long-lived assets be
written down on a pro rata basis before recognizing a gain.
Current standards require:
fair values be considered carefully and adjustments
made as needed.
any excess of acquisition-date fair value of net assets
over the consideration paid is recognized in income.

Bargain Acquisition Illustration

When the price paid to acquire another firm is lower than the
fair value of identifiable net assets (assets minus liabilities),
the acquisition is referred to as a bargain.
Any previously recorded goodwill on the sellers books is
eliminated (and no new goodwill recorded).
A gain is reflected in current earnings of the acquiree to the
extent that the fair value of net assets exceeds the
consideration paid.

Adjustments During the Measurement Period
The measurement period is the period after the initial
acquisition date during which the acquirer may adjust the
provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date.
The measurement period ends as soon as the acquirer has
the needed information about facts and circumstances
(or learns that the information is unobtainable), not to
exceed one year from the acquisition date.

information and estimates at the acquisition date (as

Review Question
Which of the following statements best describes the current authoritative

position with regard to accounting for contingent consideration?
a.
If contingent consideration depends on both future earnings and future

security prices, an additional cost of the acquired company should be
recorded only for the portion of consideration dependent on future
earnings.
b. The measurement period for adjusting provisional amounts always ends

at the year-end of the period in which the acquisition occurred.
c.
A contingency based on security prices has no effect on the

determination of cost to the acquiring company.
d. The purpose of the measurement period is to provide a reasonable time

to obtain the information necessary to identify and measure the fair
value of the acquirees assets and liabilities, as well as the fair value of
the consideration transferred.

Leveraged
Leveraged Buyouts
Buyouts
A leveraged buyout (LBO) occurs when a group of
employees (generally a management group) and third-party
investors create a new company to acquire all the
outstanding common shares of their employer company.
The management group contributes the stock they hold
to the new corporation and borrows sufficient funds to
acquire the remainder of the common stock.
Slide
2-45
The old corporation is merged into the new corporation.
The essence of the change suggests that the economic

entity concept should be applied; thus (LBO) transactions
are to be viewed as business combinations.

recognized.

value of $200,000 and a book value of $140,000. The book values
of all other assets approximate market values. Taxaware Company
is acquired by Blinko in a combination that qualifies as a
nontaxable exchange for Taxaware shareholders. Blinko issues
common stock valued at $800,000 (par value $150,000). First, if
we disregard tax effects, the entry to record the acquisition
would be:

Illustration: Now consider tax effects, assuming a 30% tax rate.
First, the excess of market value over book value of the fixed
assets creates a deferred tax liability because the excess
depreciation is not tax deductible. Thus, the deferred tax
liability associated with the fixed assets equals 30% $60,000
(the difference between market and book values), or $18,000.
The inclusion of deferred taxes would increase goodwill by
$18,000 to a total of $118,000. The entry to include goodwill is
as follow:
