Note 11: Goodwill
For goodwill impairment testing, enterprise-level goodwill
acquired in business combinations is allocated to reporting units
based on the relative fair value of assets acquired and recorded
in the respective reporting units. Through this allocation, we
assigned enterprise-level goodwill to the reporting units that are
expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. We
used discounted estimated future net cash flows to evaluate
goodwill reported at all reporting units.
For our goodwill impairment analysis, we allocate all
of the goodwill to the individual operating segments. For
management reporting we do not allocate all of the goodwill
to the individual operating segments; some is allocated at
the enterprise level. See Note 24 for further information
on management reporting. The balances of goodwill for
management reporting were:
