MFRS138 Intangible asset is an identifiable

Identifiability
Control
Future economic benefit
acquired/externally purchased

Definitions
Identifiability (para 11-12)
Separable from the entity
to use a process.
A copyright is an exclusive right of protection given to a
creator of a published work such as a song, film, painting,
photograph, or book.
A trademark or tradename, is an exclusive right to
display a word, a slogan, a symbol, or an emblem that
distinctively identifies a company, product, or a service.

addition, Focus Eye Bhd is required to purchase a special equipment which cost RM500,000. The
equipment is expected to be used for five years. Outline the accounting treatment for the
franchise and equipment.
The franchise is considered an intangible asset because it is identifiable (it is separable from the
whole of the business), the entity has control over the intangible (benefits can be obtained from the
use of the intangible and others have no access to the intangible) and it is expected that future
economic benefits will flow to the entity from the sale of the contact lenses.
The franchise is recognized as intangible asset since its cost can be measured reliably (the
purchase price).
On the other hand, the equipment is treated as an item of plant, property and equipment because it
has physical resource (a steel and concrete structure) purchased by Focus Eye Bhd (past event),
used at the entitys discretion (control) to produce contact lenses and used for five years (more than
one year).
Since the cost of the machine can be measured reliably (the purchase price), the machine can be
recognized as plant, property and equipment.

Eddy Company paid $1,000,000 to purchase all of
James Companys assets and assumed James
Companys liabilities of $200,000. James Companys
assets were appraised at a fair value of $900,000. What
amount of goodwill should Eddy company record as a
result of the purchase?

recognized as an asset.
The expenditure of RM60,000 in 2014 is recognized as an
asset and the carrying amount becomes RM 80,000.
The RM100,000 written off is not reinstated.
20
Indefinite life
There is no foreseeable limit to the period over which an intangible asset is
expected to generate net cash inflows for the entity.
Do not amortize the intangible asset with an indefinite useful life but the
indefinite life needs to be reviewed at each reporting period.
21
trademark product will generate cash flows for an indefinite period of time.
Therefore, the trademark will not be amortized and the useful life of the trademark
should be reviewed each reporting period to determine whether events and
circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life assessment for the
trademark.
