GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS	5. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Corporation recorded $3.805 million of goodwill and $1.206 million of deposit based intangible assets associated with the acquisition of Peninsula. The excess of the cost of acquired entities over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired less liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. In accordance with FASB ASC 350 (SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets), amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived assets is not recorded. However, the recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets are annually tested for impairment. Intangible assets, including core deposits and customer business relationships, are amortized primarily on straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The Corporation is currently amortizing the deposit based intangible over a ten-year estimated life. The deposit based intangible is reported net of accumulated amortization at $1.167 million at March 31, 2015. Amortization expense in the first quarter of 2015 is $.029 million. Amortization expense for the next five years is expected to be at $.121 million per year.
