If it is purchased for life time, then no need to amortise the same. The question of amortisation comes when the goodwill purchase is for a term say 3 years, 5 years and so on.
But goodwill purchases for life time need not be amortised.
The entries for amortisation are similar to depreciation entry....
Debit amortised goodwill (expenses)
Credit Goodwill
