Goodwill:
When the cost of purchasing the company is more than the value of the net assets of the company then the excess amount is the amount of goodwill. It is an intangible asset. It has no physical substance. Goodwill is calculated by reducing the value of net assets of a company from the cost of purchasing the company.
The company records the goodwill which represents the excess amount paid for purchasing the company. The goodwill created by the company is not recorded by the company.
The amount of goodwill is the amount paid in excess over the value of net assets of the company. Goodwill is recorded when it represents purchased goodwill that is the amount paid in excess in the acquisition of another company.
