What Is Goodwill

What Is Goodwill

1. Goodwill is the immaterial value derived from factors such as the customers, efficiency, organization, credits, prestige, experience, and the position of the enterprise or business before third parties

   • Examples of negotiations of intangible
     • - When Proctor and Gamble purchased Gillette in 63 billion dollars in 2005, the intangible assets were valued in 55 billion dollars, of which 35 billion corresponded to goodwill, representing 63.6 % of the intangible value. Hence, there was an overestimation of the intangible goodwill assets and an underestimation of the identified intangible assets.
     • - Walt Disney paid 7.5 billion dollars for the Pixar digital animation studio. The intangible assets, brand and commercial names were valued in only 200 million dollars while the goodwill assets were valued in 5.6 billion dollars. This is another example of overestimation of goodwill assets and underestimation of the identified intangible assets.
     • - In 2006, Google purchased YouTube for 1.2 billion dollars, which reached the headlines of the brand stock exchange. Out of the entire purchase, only 200 million were attributed to the identified intangible assets and 83.4 % to goodwill. It is known that the success of You- Tube is due to the expertise of the brand to attract subscribers, and therefore, the valuation made for the brand is extremely low.
   • Results of the studies of several companies on the identification and classification of intangible
