چکیده انگلیسی:
Given the ongoing controversy around the accounting treatment of goodwill and the search by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) for
improvements to goodwill accounting, this study surveys a global sample of 352 chief financial officers
(CFOs) to understand their perceptions of adopting a goodwill impairment-only approach compared to
an amortization model. More than half of the respondents agree that alternative accounting treatments
of impairment testing might provide more useful information. However, almost two thirds still prefer
goodwill impairment testing to the amortization process. Theoretically, the study shows that the
impairment-only model preference is associated with characteristics on an individual, firm and country
level. The results indicate that more expert CFOs and overall CFO perceptions of firms’ economic conditions and the role of external auditors affect preference for the goodwill accounting model. Further,
there is evidence that dominant ownership structures and accounting culture affect CFO preferences. The
study investigates several areas in which regulators and standard setters can intervene, thereby
contributing to the debate on whether to reintroduce the amortization of goodwill.
