| 19.22 | The acquirer shall, at the acquisition date: |
| (a) | recognise goodwill acquired in a business combination as an asset; and |
| (b) | initially measure that goodwill at its cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the acquirer's interest in the net amount of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised and measured in accordance with paragraphs 19.15 to 19.15C. [AMD 439] |
| 19.23 | After initial recognition, the acquirer shall measure goodwill acquired in a business combination at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses: |
| (a) | An entity shall follow the principles in paragraphs 18.19 to 18.24 for amortisation of goodwill. Goodwill shall be considered to have a finite useful life, and shall be amortised on a systematic basis over its life. If, in exceptional cases, an entity is unable to make a reliable estimate of the useful life of goodwill, the life shall not exceed 10 years. [AMD 93] |
| (b) | An entity shall follow Section 27 Impairment of Assets for recognising and measuring the impairment of goodwill. |
