Accounting Policy on Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Intangible Assets
Time Warner has a significant number of intangible assets, including acquired film and television libraries and other copyrighted products and tradenames. Time Warner does not recognize the fair value of internally generated intangible assets. Intangible assets acquired in business combinations are recorded at the acquisition date fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Acquired film libraries are amortized using the film forecast computation model.
