Intangibles

An asset that has no physical presence (e.g. brand names, patents). Intangible assets lack physical form, and their market value is not easily obtained: they are usually unique and hence not traded in the marketplace. Because price signals cannot be used to value an intangible asset, complicated valuation techniques often must be employed.
