19.1 Scope
19.1.1 Extracts from FRS102-Sections 19.2
19.2 This section specifies the accounting for all business combinations except:
(a) the formation of a joint venture; and
(b) acquisition of a group of assets that does not constitute a business.
PBE19.2A In addition, public benefit entities shall consider the requirements of Section 34 Specialised Activities in accounting for public benefit entity combinations.
19.1.2 OmniPro comment
Section 19 deals with the accounting for business combinations including goodwill. It provides guidance on identifying the acquirer, measuring the cost of the business combination, allocating the costs of the acquired assets and determining the fair value of all assets and liabilities and how goodwill should be determined and accounted for.
The formation of a joint venture is accounted for under Section 15-Investment in Joint Ventures and is outside the scope of section 19. However, where a joint venture enters into a business combination after creation this is accounted for under Section 19.
Section 19.2 refers to instances where assets are just acquired but not a business. In this case depending on the types of assets these will be accounted for in accordance with the relevant section of FRS 102.
