Impairment testing of goodwill and brand
The goodwill and brand acquired through acquisition of Tiger Airways have an indefinite useful life. Tiger Airways has been
identified as a single CGU for impairment testing.
The recoverable amount of the CGU has been determined based on value-in-use calculations using cash flow projections from
financial forecasts approved by Management covering a five-year period. The pre-tax discount rate applied to cash flow projections
is 7.0% and the forecasted long-term growth rate used to extrapolate the cash flow projections beyond the five-year period is 2.5%.
The calculation of value-in-use for the CGU is most sensitive to the following assumptions:
Pre-tax discount rates – Discount rates represent the current market assessment of the risks specific to the cash-generating
unit, regarding the time value of money and individual risks of the underlying assets which have not been incorporated in the
cash flow estimates.
Growth rate – The forecasted long-term growth rate is based on published industry research and does not exceed the long-term
average growth rate for the industries relevant to the CGU.
A reasonable change to the assumptions used by Management to determine the impairment required, particularly the discount
rate and long-term growth rate, would not significantly aect the results.
