Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 6 - GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS Asure accounted for its historical acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. We recorded the amount exceeding the fair value of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition as goodwill. We recorded intangible assets apart from goodwill if the assets had contractual or other legal rights or if the assets could be separated and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged. Asure’s goodwill relates to the acquisitions of ADI and Legiant in 2011 and the acquisition of PeopleCube in July 2012. The following table summarizes the annual changes in our goodwill:
Balance at December 31, 2010 |  | $ | - |
Goodwill recognized upon acquisition of ADI |  |  | 4,098 |
Goodwill recognized upon acquisition of Legiant |  |  | 2,166 |
Balance at December 31, 2011 |  | $ | 6,264 |
Goodwill recognized upon acquisition of PeopleCube |  |  | 9,695 |
Adjustments to goodwill |  |  | (434 | )
Balance at December 31, 2012 |  | $ | 15,525 |
In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, we review and evaluate our long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that we may not recover their net book value. Based on Asure’s impairment test, we identified no impairment for our intangible assets for 2012 and 2011. The gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of our intangible assets as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, are as follows:

We record amortization expense using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful lives of the intangible assets, as noted above. Amortization expenses were $1,726 and $680 for 2012 and 2011 respectively, included in Operating Expenses. Amortization expenses recorded in Cost of Sales were $316 and $202 for 2012 and 2011, of which $102 and $19, respectively, related to the acquisitions in those periods.
