Abstract

This study aims to identify the implication and challenge of implementing PSAK 22 Convergence of IFRS 3 on goodwill accounting in Indonesia. PSAK 22 which is converged with IFRS 3 regulates business combinations, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill, with a focus on the exception of amortization and the application of impairment tests (impairment tests). The research method used is the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with an analysis of 11 related articles to elaborate on the main issues in the implementation of PSAK 22. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of PSAK 22 increases the transparency of financial statements and the relevance of information for stakeholders. On the other hand, there are challenges in implementing PSAK 22 such as the complexity of fair value measurement, high implementation costs, and managerial discretion that can affect reporting reporting. This study contributes to the literature on the implementation of PSAK 22 in Indonesia by offering insights into the benefits and challenges faced by entities in implementing this standard. The novelty lies in reviewing PSAK 22 implementation in Indonesia, highlighting implications and challenges in goodwill accounting, and providing insights on IFRS 3 convergence benefits and difficulties within Indonesia’s accounting environment.
