What

Answer:
Goodwill
is the good name or reputation of the business which brings benefit to the
business. It enables the business to earn more profit. It is the present value
of a firm’s future excess earnings. It is an intangible asset as it has no
physical existence.

the business acquired. The excess of purchase consideration over the value of
net assets acquired is treated as acquired goodwill.
