    Sir, in example 4 for SPLOCI, it says that there was a 20% impairment in the goodwill of Vader. However, the goodwill was arisen as a result of vaders acquisition of M Co. So, shouldn’t it be that there was a 20% impairment in M co’s goodwill?

    or is it because the goodwill is owned by vader and therefore it was an impairment to vader?
    I just got confused and if you could kindly clarify, it would help me out a lot. Thank you sir

    Goodwill arises only in group accounts.

    The goodwill is not really owned by anyone – just a balancing figure in the group accounts.

    You may be over-conceptualising.

    If impaired by 20% deduct 20% from CA.

    (PLEASE USE THREAD HEADER SUCH AS IMPAIRMENT)
