Recognized as an ordinary gain from a bargain purchase.b. Treated as negative goodwill to be amortized over the period benefited, not to exceed 40 years.c. Treated as goodwill and tested for impairment on an annual basis.d. Applied pro rata to reduce, but not below zero, the amounts initially assigned to specific noncurrent assets of the acquired firm.
