NOTE 9 — GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

The change in carrying amount of goodwill is as follows.


	2017		2016
Balance, January 1	$	101,315	$	75,953
Acquired goodwill		35,775		25,362
Balance, December 31	$	137,090	$	101,315

The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. Impairment exists when a reporting unit’s carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value. At June 30, 2017, the Company elected to perform a quantitative assessment to determine if the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, including goodwill. The quantitative assessment indicated that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, resulting in no impairment. There have been no issues identified since then indicating goodwill impairment.

A discussion of goodwill acquired in 2017, 2016 and 2015 can be found at NOTE 26.
