Indefinite­life intangibles
are intangible assets which are not amortized because there is no foreseeable limit to the cash flows
generated by them. Indefinite­life intangible assets have no legal, contractual, regulatory, economic, or
competitive limiting factors. Indefinite­life intangibles, nevertheless, are subject to an impairment test that
should be performed at least annually. Examples of indefinite­life intangibles include goodwill, trademarks
and perpetual franchises. Free Study Notes
