In business consolidations, is there a difference between how to calculate goodwill (full goodwill method) and calculating gain?

Are they the same?

Goodwill = fair value of sub – fair value of sub’s net assets

From my understanding, this is also how you arrive at a gain. Please help clear this up! thanks!!

No difference. they are calculated in the same way. Don't forgot to add the FV of identifiable intangible assets to the net asset calculation.
