The Company completed its evaluation of the carrying value of goodwill as of June 1, 2012 and determined there was no impairment to the recorded value of goodwill. In order to identify potential impairments, Penford compared the fair value of its Food Ingredients reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. Penford then compared the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The implied fair value of the reporting unit was determined using the discounted cash flow method, the implied market capitalization method and the guideline company method. Since there was no indication of impairment, Penford was not required to complete the second step of the process which would measure the amount of any impairment. At June 1, 2012, the fair value of the Food Ingredients reporting unit was substantially in excess of its carrying value, and there are no changes in that conclusion as of August 31, 2012.   <table style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="68%" align="center">  <tr> <td width="89%"></td> <td valign="bottom" width="6%"></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom">(Dollars in thousands)</td> <td valign="bottom">  </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>  <tr bgcolor="#CCEEFF"> <td valign="top"> Goodwill, August 31, 2011 </td> <td valign="bottom">  </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">7,897</td> <td valign="bottom" nowrap="nowrap">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Acquisition of Carolina Starches </td> <td valign="bottom">  </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">81</td> <td valign="bottom" nowrap="nowrap">  </td> </tr> <tr style="FONT-SIZE: 1px"> <td valign="bottom"></td> <td valign="bottom">  </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#CCEEFF"> <td valign="top"> Goodwill, August 31, 2012 </td> <td valign="bottom">  </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">7,978</td> <td valign="bottom" nowrap="nowrap">  </td> </tr> <tr style="FONT-SIZE: 1px"> <td valign="bottom"></td> <td valign="bottom">  </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr> </table> Penford’s intangible assets consist of patents, customer lists and non-compete agreements. Patents are being amortized over the weighted average remaining amortization period of four years as of August 31, 2012. There is no residual value associated with patents. The fair value of customer lists and non-compete agreements from the acquisition of Carolina Starches are being amortized over their estimated useful lives. Customer lists are amortized on a straight-line basis over two years and the non-compete agreements are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the five-year term of the agreements.
