- to the extent that the impairment relates to goodwill in the cash generating unit,
the relative carrying amounts of the goodwill of the parts before the impairment;

- to the extent that the impairment loss relates to identifiable assets within the
cash-generating unit, the relative carrying amounts of the net identifiable assets of the
parts before the impairment. The allocation to each asset is done on a pro-rata basis of
the carrying amount of each asset (as outlined above).

For those parts of the cash generating unit that do not have a non-controlling
interest, the impairment loss is allocated in full to the parent.

The choice regarding the measurement of the non-controlling interest in a
subsidiary not only has implications for measuring goodwill at the acquisition date.
Where the goodwill is impaired subsequently, the effect on the profits attributed to the
shareholders of the parent and, consequently, the earnings per share figures will also
differ.
