Correct Answer: Fictitious asset


Solution : Answer = Fictitious asset

Goodwill is not a fictitious asset; it is a genuine intangible asset representing the reputation, brand value, and customer loyalty of a business. It's recognized on the balance sheet when a company is acquired for a price greater than the fair market value of its net assets.
​​​​​​​Hence, the correct option is 1.
