    I’ve had a few requests for April/May Study Groups…March will be here before you know it.

    In order to take an early April exam, you should begin studying…now. 🙂

    @Kenada

    That's what I thought as well, I thought if the donor is silent about it then we have to transfer any income or losses to the unrestricted funds. I guess there might be some tiny details we are missing.

    @joe

    You're welcome, the biggest mistake we should try to avoid is studying this things for too long.

    It feels like im reaching the point of diminishing returns, and most of the things I know are gradually escaping me.

    It feels terrible, I wish 31st was here already.

    I know about the point of diminishing returns.

    I did pensions and got 78%

    I did inventory and got 64% — Shemurr! – I realize the installment and long term contracts aren't my strong area.. otherwise I am fine in inventory.

    Moving on to Bonds… then lease… last if NFP…

    Does this look right?

    Valuation of Goodwill – Reporting Unit

    Step 1 – Determine is there impairment (Book value Reporting Unit – FV Reporting Unit) If > means potential impairment, move to step 2

    Step 2 – Take difference between Implied Goodwill and Actual Goodwill

    Implied Goodwill = FV Reporting Unit – FV of Assets/Liabilities

    STEP 1……Carrying Amount of reporting unit > Fair value of reporting unit including goodwill…..move to step 2

    STEP 2……Implied FV= FV of reporting unit including goodwill – FV of reporting unit excluding goodwill

    STEP 3…..Actual goodwill – Implied FV of goodwill = Impairment loss

    Thanks for bringing this up, I will memorise this everyday.
