Note 2: Acquisitions

During fiscal 2016, we acquired the assets of four independent operators of 11 La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores in Colorado, Wisconsin, North and South Carolina, and Ohio for $26.3 million, composed of $23.3 million of cash and $3.0 million of forgiveness of certain of these dealers' accounts receivable and prepaid expenses. We began including the 11 stores in our Retail segment results upon acquisition.

Prior to the acquisitions, we licensed the exclusive right to own and operate La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores (and to use the associated trademarks and trade name) in those markets to the dealers whose assets we acquired, and we reacquired these rights when we purchased the dealers' other assets. The effective settlement of these arrangements resulted in no settlement gain or loss as the contractual terms were at market. We recorded an indefinite-lived intangible asset of $3.1 million related to these reacquired rights. We also recognized $22.0 million of goodwill, which primarily relates to the expected synergies resulting from the integration of the acquired stores and the anticipated future benefits of these synergies.

We based the purchase price allocations on fair values at the dates of acquisition and summarized them in the following table:

During fiscal 2015, we acquired the assets of two independent La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® dealers in exchange for $1.8 million in cash and forgiveness of these dealers' net accounts and notes receivable of $1.0 million. We reacquired the right to own and operate La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores in those markets as a result of the acquisitions. In our Retail segment, we recorded an indefinite-lived intangible asset of $1.0 million related to these reacquired rights and $1.2 million of goodwill.

During fiscal 2014, we acquired the assets of two independent La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® dealers in exchange for $0.8 million in cash and forgiveness of net accounts and notes receivable of $3.0 million. We reacquired the right to own and operate La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores in those markets as a result of the acquisitions. We recorded an indefinite-lived intangible asset of $1.1 million in our Retail segment related to these reacquired rights and goodwill of $1.1 million.

All of these indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill assets will be amortized and deducted for federal income tax purposes over 15 years. All acquired stores were included in our Retail segment results upon acquisition.

Purchase price allocations are not presented for the fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2014 acquisitions as they were not material to our consolidated balance sheet. All of the above acquisitions were not material to our financial position or our results of operations, and therefore, pro-forma financial information is not presented. The net notes and accounts receivable acquired are considered non-cash investing activities as they relate to our consolidated statement of cash flows.
