The goodwill

The goodwill is the difference between the second and the first method. To calculate it, we compare the current revenue to the revenue that would be normal for the total assets. If positive, it is due to high quality human resources (G. BECKER, the human capital theory), good relations with economic partners, good location. It can also be negative (badwill).
