Description

The amount of cash inflows from the disposal of intangible assets during a specific period. Intangible assets are non-monetary assets without physical substance that are identifiable and controlled by a company, such as patents, trademarks, goodwill, and software. Disposal of intangible assets refers to the process of selling or otherwise getting rid of these assets when they are no longer needed or useful. Disposal of intangible assets may result in a gain or loss on the income statement, depending on the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the assets. Disposal of intangible assets is reported as part of cash flow from investing activities on the cash flow statement.
