Intangible assets continuedThe fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired via business combinations in the year were as follows:Acquiree's book value£000Fair value adjustment£000Acquisition amount£000Leasehold properties1,801(5)1,796Equipment464(63)401Stocks271-271Debtors & prepayments381-381Cash130-130Deferred tax asset-5555Creditors, accruals and other liabilities(360)(313)(673)Net identifiable assets and liabilities2,687(326)2,361Goodwill3,739Total purchase price for operating assets6,100Impairment testingGoodwill brought forward arose principally from three separate acquisitions and has been allocated to three cash-generating units. In 2007 £422.5 million was allocated to Spire 1 and in 2008 £82.6 million was allocated to Spire 2 and £6 million to Spire Thames Valley Hospital.In 2010 goodwill of £3.7 million arose from the acquisitions of London Fertility Centre, The Richard Villar Practice and The London Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Centres, further details of which are provided in note 27.The recoverable amount of each cash-generating unit was calculated as at 31 December 2010 by reference to its value in use, which in each case exceeded its carrying value and therefore no impairment provision is required. In order to evaluate the value in use, management utilised the cash flows from the 2010 three-year plan approved by the Board of Directors, which was extended to cover the five year period 2011-2015.Management identified a number of key assumptions over the period of the forecasts which determine the run rate of earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA). Revenue growth is projected to average 5.5% for the five year period and is impacted by an interaction of a number of elements of the operating model, including pricing trends, volume growth and the mix and complexity of discharges. These variables are interdependent and the forecast cash flows reflect management's expectations based on current market trends. Cost assumptions are consistent with the Group's historic track record, after taking account of a conservative level of inflationary increase, assuming that headline inflation is at 2.5% and delivering further efficiencies that can be achieved as the Group continues to build scale and volume.A long-term growth rate of 2.25% (2009: 2.25%) has been applied to cash flows beyond 2015, which is based on historic growth rates achieved by the sector, which have typically exceeded RPI. Pre-tax discount rates were based on the capital asset pricing model, utilising a sector-specific Beta in arriving at the equity premium and cost of debt based on current bank lending rates. For each cash-generating unit, a specific pre-tax discount rate was calculated to reflect the profile of cash flows inherent to that specific cash-generating unit and these were in the range of 10.5%-11.0% (2009: 10.5% -11.3%).The recoverable amount from each acquisition is based on cash flow forecasts that reflect the assumptions stated above. As at the balance sheet date, it is not considered to be reasonably possible that circumstances will change so that the key assumptions made in assessing the recoverable amount relating to each of the acquisitions will be revised to the point where the goodwill equals the carrying amount.
