Summary purchase price allocation information for all acquisitions

All of the acquisitions discussed in this note have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, each purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values at the date of each acquisition. The accompanying consolidated statements of income include the revenues and expenses of each acquisition since its respective acquisition date. The consolidated balance sheets reflect the allocations of each acquisition’s purchase price as of December 31, 2020 or 2019, as applicable. The measurement periods for purchase price allocations do not exceed 12 months from the acquisition date.

As part of the purchase price allocations for the acquisitions completed in 2020 and 2018, $30.3 million and $18.3 million, respectively, were allocated to the trade names acquired. We determined that all of the trade names acquired in connection with these acquisitions had indefinite lives since their economic lives are expected to approximate the life of each company acquired. Additionally, we recorded other identifiable intangible assets related to customer relationships for the 2019 and 2018 acquisitions of $26.0 million and $24.8 million, respectively, with weighted average lives of 10.0 years. The goodwill arising from our 2019 and 2018 acquisitions consists largely of expected strategic benefits, including enhanced financial and operational scale, as well as expansion of acquired product and processing know-how across our enterprise. Goodwill of $60.8 million from our 2019 acquisition is deductible for tax purposes. Total goodwill deductible for tax purposes was $752.6 million as of December 31, 2020.
