Re: Difference between full good will and partial goodwill
Full goodwill means that the goodwill is recognised in a business combination for the NCI in a subsidiary as well as the controlling interest.
A partial goodwill acquirer may recognise NCI in the subsidiary at fair value or the acquirer can recognize NCI in net assets excluding goodwill. Normally, under partial goodwill method the subsidiary goodwill is not calculated.
