Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
Goodwill Disclosure [Text Block] |
16. | Goodwill
Under the provisions of GAAP USA, goodwill is subject to at least annual assessments for impairment by applying a fair-value based test. GAAP USA also requires that an acquired intangible asset should be separately recognized if the benefit of the intangible asset is obtained through contractual or other legal rights, or if the asset can be sold, licensed, rented or exchanged, regardless of the acquirer’s intent to do so. The Company has no acquired intangible assets other than goodwill. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, we determined that the fair value of the Company’s interest in goodwill related to Flexo Universal as recorded was not impaired. The carrying amount of goodwill as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $989,000. During 2010, the Company purchased an additional interest of $101,000 in its German subsidiary, CTI Europe, and recorded $44,000 of goodwill in the transaction. We have determined that the fair value of the Company's interest in the goodwill related to CTI Europe was not impaired as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.
