Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

We amortize the identifiable intangible assets using the straight-line method over a useful life of five years. We determined that the useful life of those assets are based on the term of the applicable noncompete agreement and estimated lives of relationships acquired. Amortization of intangible assets is expected to be approximately $822,000 for the years ending December 31, 2015, 2016 and 2017 and $68,500 for the year ending December 31, 2018.

Intangible assets consisted of the following at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

	Original Fair Market Value		Accumulated Amortization		Net
Balance - September 30, 2015:
Vendor relationships	$	1,170,000	$	624,000	$	546,000
Trade name		230,000		122,667		107,333
Noncompete agreement		2,710,000		1,444,833		1,265,167
	$	4,110,000	$	2,191,500	$	1,918,500

Balance - December 31, 2014:
Vendor relationships	$	1,170,000	$	448,000	$	722,000
Trade name		230,000		88,167		141,833
Noncompete agreement		2,710,000		1,038,833		1,671,167
	$	4,110,000	$	1,575,000	$	2,535,000

Amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 totaled $205,500 and $205,500, respectively, and totaled $616,500 and $616,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
