Goodwill is not amortised, but tested annually for impairment with the recoverable amount being determined from value in use calculations.
The key assumptions for the value in use calculations are those regarding the discount rate, growth rates and changes in income and costs.
The Group prepares discounted cash flow forecasts based on financial forecasts approved by management covering a three year period,
which takes account of both past performance and expectations for future market developments. Cash flows beyond this three year period
are extrapolated using a growth rate of 2%, which does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the Group’s retail businesses.
The Group’s pre-tax weighted average cost of capital is used to discount the future cash flows. A risk adjustment is then made for the
countries in which the business unit operates: per una discount rate 10.2% (last year 9.5%); Marks and Spencer Marinopoulos B.V. 12.2%
and Marks and Spencer Czech Republic a.s. 13.2%. Based on the discounted cash flows the valuations indicate sufficient headroom that
any reasonably possible change in the assumptions is unlikely to result in an impairment.
Brands consist of the per una brand which is being amortised on a straight-line basis over a period of 15 years.
