The objective of this MFRS is to improve the relevance, reliability and
comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its
financial statements about a business combination and its effects. To
accomplish that, this MFRS establishes principles and requirements for how
the acquirer:
(a) recognises and measures in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest
in the acquiree;
(b) recognises and measures the goodwill acquired in the business
combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and
(c) determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial
statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business
combination.
