Additions to Goodwill
| • |  | Businesses acquired during 2015 resulted in additions to goodwill of approximately $13.5 million, which was recorded in the Employee Services practice group.
| • |  | Businesses acquired during 2014 resulted in additions to goodwill of approximately $51.9 million, of which $42.6 million was recorded in the Employee Services practice group and $9.3 million was recorded in the Financial Services practice group.
| • |  | The remaining increases in goodwill during 2015 and 2014 were a result of final working capital adjustments. Refer to Note 18 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion of acquisition activities.
Decreases to Goodwill
| • |  | During the year ended December 31, 2015, CBIZ sold three businesses within the Financial Services practice group, two of which were discontinued in 2014. This resulted in a decrease to goodwill of $1.6 million.
| • |  | During the year ended December 31, 2014, CBIZ sold one business within the Financial Services practice group resulting in a decrease to goodwill of $1.5 million.
Goodwill Impairment During the fourth quarter of 2015 and 2014, CBIZ applied the principles as prescribed in FASB ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other” in order to complete its goodwill impairment tests.
| • |  | Quantitative Assessment: In the fourth quarter of 2015, CBIZ based its goodwill assessment on a quantitative assessment for each of its reporting units that carried a goodwill balance using both a discounted cash flow valuation technique and a market-based approach. The impairment test incorporated estimates of future cash flows; allocation of certain assets, liabilities, and cash flows among reporting units; future growth rates; and the applicable weighted-average cost of capital used to discount those estimated cash flows.
| • |  | At December 31, 2015, goodwill totaled $447.7 million. No goodwill impairment was recognized as a result of the annual evaluation performed as of November 1, 2015. The estimated fair value of the five reporting units was substantially in excess of its carrying value as of the annual test date.
| • |  | Qualitative Assessment: In the fourth quarter of 2014, CBIZ based its goodwill assessment on a qualitative assessment for each of its reporting units that carried a goodwill balance. The qualitative assessment included an in-depth analysis of many factors, including general economic conditions, industry and market conditions, a broad scope of financial factors, the Company’s weighted average cost of capital, changes in management and key personnel, the price of the Company’s common stock, as well as other drivers of a fair value analysis.
| • |  | At December 31, 2014, goodwill totaled $435.2 million. As a result of the Company’s qualitative assessment, it was concluded that it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value of each of its reporting units was greater than its carrying value
Client Lists and Other Intangibles At December 31, 2015, the weighted average amortization period remaining for total intangible assets was 7.8 years. Client lists are amortized over their expected period of benefit and had a weighted-average amortization period of 7.6 years remaining at December 31, 2015. Other intangibles are amortized over periods ranging from 2 to 15 years, and had a weighted-average amortization period of 10.0 years remaining at December 31, 2015. Amortization expense related to client lists and other intangible assets for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 was as follows (in thousands):
|  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |  |  | 2013 |

Total amortization expense |  | $ | 14,731 |  |  | $ | 14,478 |  |  | $ | 13,535 |
Amortization expense for existing client lists and other intangible assets for each of the next five years ending December 31 is estimated to be (in thousands):
