Goodwill and Intangible Assets Accounting Policy
Goodwill, all of which is allocated to Honda's reporting units, is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually. Honda performs its annual impairment review of goodwill at March 31, and when a triggering event occurs between annual impairment dates. Honda recognized ¥8,006 million impairment loss on goodwill reported by a reporting unit in its automobile segment for the year ended March 31, 2009, because of a decision principally to withdraw from certain racing activities and estimated that it will not generate future cash flows. The impairment loss on goodwill is included in selling, general and administrative in the consolidated statements of income. For the year ended March 31, 2010 and 2011, Honda did not recognize impairment loss on goodwill.
The carrying amount of goodwill at March 31, 2010 and 2011 was ¥12,062 million and ¥12,008 million, respectively and is included in other assets of the consolidated balance sheets.
