A reporting unit missed plan and the test is due
An annual goodwill test, or an interim test after a triggering event, needs a reporting unit DCF, market comparables and a carrying value reconciliation that hold up in review.

Does not cover

Who it's for
At EY I worked on ASC 350 goodwill impairment for major public-company reporting units, building the DCF and market comparables analysis. The conclusion stays with the firm that signs.
