    Hi Sir,

    I always have trouble when the question specifically states to explain the Goodwill calculation?
    Cause I am just very confused on how to explain a formula but I am quite thorough on all types of GW calculation.

    can you please give me a format to answer those types of questions sir

    thank you

    Hi Sir,

    In addition to above query,
    01. Can I use the below abbreviations in the exam sir?

    – Goodwill – GW
    – Acquisition – Acq.
    – Net Assets – NA
    – Associate – Ass.
    – Subsidiary – Sub

    02. I have trouble in explaining all types of calculations sir.. I know this might have a major impact on my marks so I don’t want to lose on the marks knowing the equation and everything. Therefore, please be kind enough to help me out on this sir?

    Abbreviations above are fine (assuming you mean for workings).

    You need to watch my revision question debriefs on this website. I show you there exactly what to write.
