    Hi,

    1) The goodwill of the subsidiary is not recognised and is removed from the net assets at the acquisition date.

    2) The goodwill is calculated in the functional currency of the subsidiary and translated each year at the closing rate with exchange differences being recognised through OCI.

    3) Internally generated goodwill is not capitalised.

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks
