Goodwill is only relevant in limited company accounts. It can only be shown if it is purchased goodwill (as opposed to ‘home grown’) and should be revalued each year. If the value has called then it should be impaired (like depreciated).
It is only really relevant to you in the context of group accounts where goodwill arising on consolidation appears. - AuthorPosts
