Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets | The Company conducts goodwill impairment testing at the reporting unit level at least annually or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. See Note 1 for further description of impairment testing. At October 1, 2021, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test. Based on the results of the test, there were no events or circumstances that led to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. At October 1, 2020, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test. Based on the results of the test, there were no events or circumstances that led to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount with exception to lower than anticipated BCG wealth management sales outside of the education markets which triggered an impairment of the goodwill associated with the BCG business of the Retirement reporting unit. For the evaluation, the fair value of BCG was measured using a discounted cash flow method. The carrying amount exceeded the fair value, resulting in a $5.6 million goodwill impairment charge. In 2019, an annuity reinsurance transaction as described in Note 6 triggered a requirement to evaluate the goodwill associated with the annuity business of the Retirement reporting unit. For the evaluation, the fair value of the Retirement reporting unit was measured using a discounted cash flow method. The carrying amount exceeded the fair value, resulting in a $28.0 million goodwill impairment charge. Goodwill impairment charges are reported as Other expense - goodwill and intangible asset impairments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reportable segment for the year ended December 31, 2021 were as follows:
($ in millions) |  | December 31, 2020 |  | Impairments |  | Acquisitions |  | December 31, 2021
Property & Casualty |  | $ | 9.5 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 9.5 |

As of December 31, 2021, the outstanding amounts of definite-lived intangible assets subject to amortization are attributable to the acquisitions of BCG and NTA during 2019. The acquisition of BCG resulted in initial recognition of definite-lived intangible assets subject to amortization in the amount of $14.1 million and the acquisition of NTA resulted in initial recognition of definite-lived intangible assets subject to amortization in the amount of $160.4 million. As of December 31, 2021 the outstanding amounts of definite-lived intangible assets subject to amortization were as follows:
($ in millions) |  | Weighted Average Useful Life (in Years) |  |
At inception: |  |  |  |
Value of business acquired |  | 30 |  | $ | 94.4 |
Value of distribution acquired |  | 17 |  | 54.0 |
Value of agency relationships |  | 14 |  | 17.0 |
Value of customer relationships |  | 10 |  | 9.1 |
Total |  | 23 |  | 174.5 |
Accumulated amortization and impairments: |  |  |  |
Value of business acquired |  |  |  | (17.6) |
Value of distribution acquired |  |  |  | (11.6) |
Value of agency relationships |  |  |  | (6.3) |
Value of customer relationships |  |  |  | (4.4) |
Total |  |  |  | (39.9) |
Net intangible assets subject to amortization: |  |  |  | $ | 134.6 |
In regard to the definite-lived intangible assets in the table above, the VOBA intangible asset represents the difference between the fair value of insurance contracts and insurance policy reserves measured in accordance with the Company's accounting policies for insurance contracts acquired. VOBA was based on an actuarial estimate of the present value of future distributable earnings for insurance in force as of the acquisition date. The VODA intangible asset represents the present value of future business to be written by the existing distribution channel. The value of agency relationships intangible asset represents the present value of the commission overrides retained by NTA. The value of customer relationships intangible asset represents the present value of the expected profits from existing BCG customers in force at the date of acquisition. All of the aforementioned definite-lived intangible assets were valued using the income approach. Estimated future amortization of the Company's definite-lived intangible assets were as follows:
($ in millions) |  |
Year Ending December 31, |  |
2022 |  | $ | 12.1 |
2023 |  | 11.2 |
2024 |  | 10.5 |
2025 |  | 9.8 |
2026 |  | 9.2 |
Thereafter |  | 81.8 |
Total |  | $ | 134.6 |
The VOBA intangible asset is being amortized by product based on the present value of future premiums to be received. The VODA intangible asset in respect to the acquisition of NTA is being amortized on a straight-line basis. The VODA intangible asset in respect to the acquisition of BCG is being amortized based on the present value of future profits to be received. The value of agency relationships intangible asset is being amortized based on the present value of future premiums to be received. The value of customer relationships intangible asset is being amortized based on the present value of future profits to be received. Indefinite-lived intangible assets (not subject to amortization) as of December 31, 2021 were as follows:
($ in millions) |  | December 31, 2020 |  | Impairments |  | Acquisitions |  | December 31, 2021
Trade names |  | $ | 7.9 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 7.9 |
State licenses |  | 2.9 |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | 2.9 |
Total |  | $ | 10.8 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 10.8 |
The trade names intangible asset represents the present value of future savings accruing NTA and BCG by virtue of not having to pay royalties for the use of the trade names, valued using the relief from royalty method. The state licenses intangible asset represents the regulatory licenses held by NTA that were valued using the cost approach. The Company conducts intangible asset impairment testing at least annually, or more often if events, changes or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. See Note 1 for further description of impairment testing. At October 1, 2021, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to determine whether it was necessary to perform quantitative intangible asset impairment tests. Based on the assessment of qualitative factors, there were no events or circumstances that led to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of an intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. At October 1, 2020, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to determine whether it was necessary to perform quantitative intangible asset impairment tests. Based on the assessment of qualitative factors, there were no events or circumstances that led to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of an intangible asset is less than its carrying amount with exception to lower than anticipated BCG wealth management sales outside of the education markets which triggered a requirement to evaluate the intangible assets associated with BCG. For the evaluation, the fair value of BCG's intangible assets were measured using discounted cash flow methods. The carrying amounts for VODA and trade names exceeded the fair values resulting in a $3.6 million intangible asset impairment charge for VODA and a $0.8 million intangible asset impairment charge for trade names. Intangible asset impairment charges are reported as Other expense - goodwill and intangible asset impairments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
