    subjective means the thing that change with subject. for example if we take opinion of different people about a beauty of a picture. different people give different opinion. it means beauty is subjective thing, because it change with (subject )persons hear. in this way goodwill is subjective. one person can ask brand valve of cocacola is this and other person give different figure.

    Not IAS 8 but IFRS 10 yes. Fair value of consideration involves subjectivity as also does fair value of assets acquired as also does fair value of the non-controlling interest

    That’s why goodwill is subject to subjective estimate

    How should Intangable Assets be treated in a business combination under the reversed standard of IFRS 3

    A reversed standard? That’s a new one! Given that “standard” is an alternative word for “flag” are we talking here about an army in retreat and thus their standard is no longer advancing towards the enemy and is instead reversing back to safety?

    Ok, fun over! I assume that you meant “revised” and spellcheck took over

    Intangible separately identifiable assets should be fair valued!

    Do you need more?
