For financial reporting purposes, the purchase consideration relating to a business combination must be fair valued and allocated between separately identifiable intangible assets, tangible assets, liabilities and goodwill as of the transaction date. This process can have a significant impact on reported earnings in future periods, making the PPA an integral part of the M&A process.
