What we are talking about is an article that combines fifteen years of tax deductions in order to put that magic "B" in the title to get people excited....
What w'ere really talking about is a standard accounting practice in the purchase of ANY business. The asset and liabilities columns have to total to the same in any balance sheet. When the purchase price exceeds assets, an imaginary asset called goodwill is added. There is nothing unusual in any way at all about this.
