BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
In fiscal year 2018, we acquired six solid waste collection and one transfer business in our Western region and two businesses comprised of solid waste collection and transfer operations in our Eastern region. In fiscal year 2017, we acquired one solid waste collection business in our Eastern region and three solid waste collection businesses in our Western region, and in fiscal year 2016 we acquired three transfer operations. The operating results of these businesses are included in the accompanying audited consolidated statements of operations from each date of acquisition, and the purchase price has been allocated to the net assets acquired based on fair values at each date of acquisition, with the residual amounts recorded as goodwill. Acquired intangible assets other than goodwill that are subject to amortization include client lists and non-compete covenants. These are amortized over a five to ten year period from the date of acquisition. All amounts recorded to goodwill in fiscal years 2018 and 2017, except goodwill related to the acquisition of Complete Disposal Company, Inc. and its subsidiary United Material Management of Holyoke, Inc. (collectively, "Complete"), are expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The purchase price paid for these acquisitions and the allocation of the purchase price is as follows:
