Course Details
Intangible assets are complicated to account for. The wide variety of intangible assets in practice makes it even more difficult for accountants to properly understand and assess the intangible assets owned by their clients. Professional judgement is required to assess when internally generated intangible assets can be capitalised and to consider impairment of existing intangible assets. In this course we hope to make accounting for intangible assets a bit more clear.
In this presentation Lindsay Webber covers the following topics;
- Internally generated intangible assets
- Acquired intangible assets
- Goodwill
- Crypto currency
- Impairment of intangible assets
