Business Combinations
We completed a number of individually immaterial acquisitions during fiscal 2022, 2021 and 2020. These acquisitions were completed primarily to expand our services and solutions offerings. The table below gives additional details related to these acquisitions:

Intangible assets737,040 983,910 377,060 
The intangible assets primarily consist of customer-related intangibles, which are being amortized over one to fifteen years. The goodwill was allocated among our reportable operating segments and is partially deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes.    
Dispositions
During fiscal 2022, we disposed of our business in Russia, which was part of our Europe segment. The transaction resulted in a non-operating loss of $96,294, which was not deductible for tax purposes and did not have a material effect on our operations or financial results.
