German term or phrase: erstrecken
Als Sacheinlage ist die Forderung aus der Schuldverschreibung einzubringen, ***wobei sich die Werthaltigkeitsprüfung darauf zu erstrecken hat***, daß die Forderung werthaltig ist und die zu ihrer Begründung hingegebene Sachleistung dem Ausgabepreis entsprach.

I'm having a hard time coming up with the meaning of erstrecken here.

to corroborate the \"impairment review\"

Als Ergebnisse des “Business Combinations” Projektes veröffentlichte der FASB nach intensiven Diskussionen Mitte des Jahres 2001 die Verlautbarungen SFAS 141 und 142 , die eine Aktivierung des Goodwill und die Überprüfung der Werthaltigkeit im Rahmen eines Impairment Review vorsieht. Ein solches Vorgehen setzt eine Charakterisierung des Goodwills als Vermögensgegenstand voraus. Hier ist zum einen herauszuarbeiten, wie ein Goodwill bilanziell charakterisiert werden kann. Zum anderen sind die Folgen einer solchen Charakterisierung für die Bilanzierung in den Folgeperioden aufzuzeigen. Auf diesem Hintergrund soll eine kritische Würdigung der neuen FASB Regelungen erfolgen.
