The gross carrying amount of intangible assets is determined by applying a discounted cash flow model to the future sales and earnings associated with each intangible asset or is set by contract cost. The amortization period used for definite lived intangible assets is set by contract period or by the period over which the bulk of the discounted cash flow is expected to be generated. We currently believe that we will receive the benefit from the use of the trade names classified as indefinite lived intangible assets indefinitely and they are therefore not amortized. Licenses and rights, customer relationships and non compete agreements are being amortized by the straight-line method over periods ranging from 3 to 20 years and amortization expense is reflected throughout operating expenses. Amortizing intangibles are reviewed for impairment as events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Indefinite lived intangibles are reviewed annually for impairment. Cash flow and sales analyses are used to assess impairment. The estimates of future cash flows and sales involve considerable management judgment and are based upon assumptions about expected future operating performance. Assumptions used in these forecasts are consistent with internal planning. The actual cash flows and sales could differ from management’s estimates due to changes in business conditions, operating performance, economic conditions, competition and consumer preferences. Intangible assets of $10,796,000 were acquired in the food service segment in the California Churros acquisition in fiscal year 2010. Intangible assets of $676,000 and $856,000 were acquired in the food service and retail supermarket segments, respectively, in the handhelds acquisition in fiscal year 2011. Aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets for the fiscal years 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $4,811,000, $4,687,000 and $4,508,000, respectively. Estimated amortization expense for the next five fiscal years is approximately $4,500,000 in 2012, $4,400,000 in 2013 and 2014, $4,300,000 in 2015 and $4,100,000 in 2016. The weighted average amortization period of the intangible assets is 10.1 years. Goodwill The carrying amounts of goodwill for the reportable segments are as follows:
|  | Food |  |  | Retail |  |  | Frozen |  |  |  |
|  | Service |  |  | Supermarkets |  |  | Beverages |  |  | Total |
|  | (in thousands) |
Balance at September 24, 2011 |  | $ | 34,130 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 35,940 |  |  | $ | 70,070 |
Balance at September 25, 2010 |  | $ | 34,130 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 35,940 |  |  | $ | 70,070 |
The carrying value of goodwill is determined based on the excess of the purchase price of acquisitions over the estimated fair value of tangible and intangible net assets. Goodwill is not amortized but is evaluated annually by management for impairment. Our impairment analysis for 2011 is a qualitative assessment in which we have considered historical net cash provided by operating activities and purchases of property , plant and equipment, their relationship to the carrying value of goodwill, recent fair value calculations of our reporting units and our assessment of the likelihood, based on an assessment of what we know about our Company’s products and markets, costs and general economic conditions, that the relationship of cash flow to the carrying value of goodwill will change significantly in the foreseeable future. Our impairment analysis for 2010 and 2009 was based on a combination of the income approach, which estimates the fair value discounted cash flows, and the market approach, which estimates the fair value based on comparable market prices. Under the income approach the Company used a discounted cash flow which requires Level 3 inputs such as: annual growth rates, discount rates based upon the weighted average cost of capital and terminal values based upon our stock market multiples. There were no impairment charges in 2011, 2010 or 2009. Goodwill of $9,756,000 was acquired in the food service segment in the California Churros acquisition in fiscal year 2010.

Also discloses (a) for amortizable intangibles assets in total and by major class, the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization, the total amortization expense for the period, and the estimated aggregate amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years, (b) for intangible assets not subject to amortization the carrying amount in total and by major class, and (c) for goodwill, in total and for each reportable segment, the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill during the period (including the aggregate amount of goodwill acquired, the aggregate amount of impairment losses recognized, and the amount of goodwill included in the gain (loss) on disposal of a reporting unit). If any part of goodwill has not been allocated to a reportable segment, discloses the unallocated amount and the reasons for not allocating. For each impairment loss recognized related to an intangible asset (excluding goodwill), discloses: (a) a description of the impaired intangible asset and the facts and circumstances leading to the impairment, (b) the amount of the impairment loss and the method for determining fair value, (c) the caption in the income statement or the statement of activities in which the impairment loss is aggregated, and (d) the segment in which the impaired intangible asset is reported. For each goodwill impairment loss recognized, discloses: (a) a description of the facts and circumstances leading to the impairment, (b) the amount of the impairment loss and the method of determining the fair value of the associated reporting unit, and (c) if a recognized impairment loss is an estimate not finalized and the reasons why the estimate is not final. May also disclose the nature and amount of any significant adjustments made to a previous estimate of an impairment loss. + References Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 350 -SubTopic 20 -Section 50 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6905597&loc=d3e13816-109267 Reference 2: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 350 -SubTopic 30 -Section 50 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6905858&loc=d3e16265-109275 Reference 3: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (FAS) -Number 142 -Paragraph 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47 -LegacyDoc This reference is SUPERSEDED by the Accounting Standards Codification effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.
