Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill and Intangible Assets
In connection with the acquisition of the USU business on December 1, 2017, the amount paid over the estimated fair values of the identifiable net assets was $5,011,432, which is in included in "Goodwill" in the consolidated balance sheet.
The goodwill resulting from the acquisition may become deductible for tax purposes in the future. The goodwill resulting from the acquisition is principally attributable to the future earnings potential associated with enrollment growth and other intangibles that do not qualify for separate recognition such as the assembled workforce.

We assigned an indefinite useful life to the acquired accreditation and regulatory approvals and the trade name and trademarks, of $7.9 million, as we believe they have the ability to generate cash flows indefinitely. In addition, there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, economic or other factors to limit the intangibles’ useful life and the Company intends to renew the intangibles, as applicable, and renewal can be accomplished at little cost. We determined all other acquired intangibles are
finite-lived, of $2.2 million, and they became fully amortized during fiscal 2020. There was no amortization expense for the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021.
