19.12 Negative goodwill
19.12.1 Extracts from FRS102 – Section 19.24
19.24 If the acquirer’s interest in the net amount of the identifiable assets, liabilities and provisions for contingent liabilities recognised in accordance with paragraph 19.14 exceeds the cost of the business combination (also referred to as ‘negative goodwill’), the acquirer shall:
(a) Reassess the identification and measurement of the acquiree’s assets, liabilities and provisions for contingent liabilities and the measurement of the cost of the combination.
(b) Recognise and separately disclose the resulting excess on the face of the statement of financial position on the acquisition date, immediately below goodwill, and followed by a subtotal of the net amount of goodwill and the excess.
(c) Recognise subsequently the excess up to the fair value of non-monetary assets acquired in profit or loss in the periods in which the non-monetary assets are recovered. Any excess exceeding the fair value of non-monetary assets acquired shall be recognised in profit or loss in the periods expected to be benefited.
19.12.2 OmniPro comment
Section 19.24 of FRS 102 makes it clear that it is unusual for negative goodwill to occur in an acquisition so if this occurs an entity must reassess the fair values determined for assets and liabilities to make sure the valuations are accurate. If after assessing the values no issues are found, then the negative goodwill should be recognised.
The negative goodwill is then allocated to the non-monetary items in the acquired entity (e.g. PPE, inventory, investments).
The negative goodwill should be credited to the profit and loss on a basis in which the non-monetary items are realised as required by Section 19.24 (C) of FRS 102 Therefore where an element of the goodwill is allocated to inventory, the negative goodwill is written back to the profit and loss over the period the inventory included on the balance sheet at the date of acquisition is utilised and where it is allocated to PPE it is released over the period it is depreciated.
The non-monetary asset to which the negative goodwill attaches too should be determined based on judgement and if not easily determinable allocated pro-rata. The negative goodwill should be disclosed separately on the balance sheet and if positive goodwill exists then the positive and negative goodwill should be shown on the balance sheet to come to the net amounts as per Section 19.24(b) of FRS 102.
Example 19: Negative goodwill
Company A acquired Company B for CU200,000 when the fair value of the net assets were CU250,000. In this instance there is negative goodwill of CU50,000. Ignore deferred tax effects. Assume the acquisition occurred at the start of year 1. Assume the negative goodwill attached to the inventory at the date of acquisition and this inventory will be utilised in the Company B over two years.
After a reassessment Company A is happy that this negative goodwill exists. Therefore the acquisition journals would be:
| CU | CU | |
| Dr Net Assets | 250,000 | |
| Cr Goodwill | 50,000 | |
| Cr Investment | 200,000 |
The journal required at the end of year 1 to recognise the amortisation of the negative goodwill is:
| CU | CU | |
| Dr Negative Goodwill | 25,000 | |
| Cr Amortisation of Negative Goodwill
(CU50,000/2yrs*1yr of stock disposed of) |
25,000 |
