Goodwill is the excess of purchase price over the fair market value of a company's identifiable assets and liabilities.
How It Works/Example:

Goodwill is created when one company acquires another for a price higher than the fair market value of its assets; for example, if Company A buys Company B for more than the fair value of Company B's assets and debts, the amount left over is listed on Company A's balance sheet as goodwill.
