Some common examples include Goodwill, Patents, Copyrights, Trademarks, Organization Costs, and Loan Fees. These intangible assets can be developed over a period of time by building up customer lists or by investing money into them or they can be purchased from another individual or entity.

Contract-related: franchises, licensing agreements, broadcast rights, construction permits, exploration permits, import and export permits, service contracts, etc. 4. Goodwill (identified only with a business as a whole) 5. Market-related: trademarks, brand names, internet domain names, magazine mastheads, etc. 6.
