Changes in step 1 to 4
Goodwill is an intangible asset as its impact cannot be seen but felt. Under the accounting
system, when the business has entered into the process of acquisition the goodwill is recorded
in the form of partial goodwill or full goodwill method. In step 1, the amount of the non-
controlling interest is included while calculating the goodwill. The partial goodwill method is
calculated as the difference between the purchase consideration and the share of the acquirer
of the total net identifiable assets and in step 2 the journal entry will be passed with amounts
recorded at 90%, but in full goodwill method it will be recorded at 100%. Further, the step
three involves the entry of the NCI and 4th entry involves the share of profit which will be
increased in case of full goodwill method (PWC, 2018).
The major change that will be encountered while changing the method of goodwill from
partial to full goodwill will be in case of non-controlling interest calculation. IFRS 3 provides
a choice between the recognition of full goodwill and partial goodwill. This is totally
different from the US GAAP, where the approach of full goodwill is only accepted. The
major merit of the partial goodwill is that the balance sheet is not grossed up. The step
consists of the acquisition analysis where the calculation of the goodwill is recorded and
similarly under the full goodwill method while passing the entry of NCI, the goodwill will be
recorded up till the interest kept on hold by the company. The amount of goodwill will be
changed to 100% instead of 90% (PWC, 2018).
