General Motors.
In 2020, their Goodwill was 5230 and in 2021 it was 5087. Their goodwill is not amortized but tested for impairment annually. The testing determines whether it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. If it doesn’t exist then they do a quantitative impairment test, which carries out the amount of reporting of the amount of the unit exceeding its fair value. Goodwill on a balance sheet is the intangible assets that is created when a company acquires another company for a price more than its net asset value (Hargrave, 2022). I don’t feel they disclosed enough information for others to know about their goodwill. Their goodwill and intangible assets, net decreased from 2020 to 2021 which is the sum of the carrying amounts of the intangible assets on the balance sheet, net of the accumulated amortization and impairment charges.

18. During 2011, Odyssey Company is the defendant in a patent infringement lawsuit. The entity's lawyers believe there is a 30% chance that the court will dismiss the case and the entity will incur no outflow of economic benefits. However, if the court rules in favor of the claimant, the lawyers believe that there is a 20% chance that the entity will be required to pay damages of P200,000 and an 80% chance that the entity will be required to pay damages of P100,000. Other outcomes are unlikely. The court is expected to rule in late December 2012. There is no indication that the claimant will settle out of court. A 7% risk adjustment factor to the probability-weighted expected cashflows is considered appropriate to reflect the uncertainties in the cashflow estimates. An appropriate discount rate is 5% per year. The present value of 1 at 5% for one period is 0.95. What is the measurement of the provision for lawsuit? *
a. 100,000
b. 84,000
c. 89,880
