Goodwill and Intangible Assets Accounting Policy
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Walgreen accounts for goodwill and intangibles under ASC Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, which does not permit amortization, but requires Walgreen to test goodwill and other indefinite-lived assets for impairment annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate impairment may exist.
