We make a few pet puns in this one. Like if you enjoy them. Comment with your favorite animal puns.

In this episode we focus in on how to account for a sale of assets. We start with when you qualify for Held for Sale Accounting. Then discuss why discontinued operations is hard to qualify for since ASU 2014-08. We also discuss goodwill allocation, impairment exceeding non-financial assets, presentation in the financial statements, and how to adjust the fair value over time.

We also define:
- A component
- A business
- A strategic shift
