    Hi there Sir
    I was going through the Bpp kit book and found a mark scheme examiner answer quoting business combinations ifrs3 standard
    This is not in the your notes ?
    Do we need to prepare for it?

    You need to know the basics of goodwill – you will have this as long as:

    1. You know our notes
    2. You have worked the last 8 or so exams (from
    the BPP kit) – you will inevitably pick up extra learning points as you do so.

    Yes – important thing is that you practice calculating goodwill on acquisitions.
