Business combinations

Accounting for Business combinations under IFRS 3 requires consideration of many areas including: (i) whether I acquired a business or just an asset, (ii) how do I recognise and measure the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and possibly non-controlling interest in the acquiree, (iii) how do I recognise and measure goodwill or perhaps even a bargain purchase gain, (iv) which items do I need to exclude from the business combination and finally (v) what disclosures do I need to give. Some business combinations are taking place in a common control environment. The accounting for these can be complex and judgemental. You will find information on this page for all of these issues and more.
