To determine

Goodwill:

Goodwill is an intangible asset. It is defined as the excess of cost of an acquired company over the fair value of its net assets. Net assets are the difference between the total assets and the total liabilities. The value of the goodwill is the unique features of the company such as the location of the company, its efficient employees, and its reputation, which cannot be associated with any specific asset of the Company.

Impairment of Goodwill:

It is a situation that arises when the carrying value of the goodwill listed on the acquired company’s balance sheet, exceeds its fair market value.

To Determine: The amount of the impairment loss which Incorporation W should recognize.

We are all strategists. That is, we set goals, navigate threats, and tap opportunities. We leverage our resources and implement decisions and actions to reach our goals. Sometimes we succeed and sometimes we fail.   (Adapted from Figure 1.1, Grant, 2022, p. 7) Please share an experience in which you played the strategist. What was your goal? Did the goal fit (or not fit) with the realities of the external environment and your resources? What implementation decisions and efforts did you make? Was your strategy successful or not? Why? Did strategy execution (i.e., implementation, monitoring, and control) play a key role in your strategy’s success or failure?
