The total carrying amount of goodwill for all periods in the table above is reflected net of $1.557 billion of accumulated impairment charges, which were primarily recorded in our general rentals segment.
(2)
Includes goodwill adjustments for the effect on goodwill of changes to net assets acquired during the measurement period, which were not significant to our previously reported operating results or financial condition.

For additional detail on the acquisitions of NES, Neff, BakerCorp and BlueLine in April 2017, October 2017, July 2018 and October 2018, respectively, which accounted for most of the 2017 and 2018 goodwill related to acquisitions, see note 4 to our consolidated financial statements.

Our other intangibles assets, net at December 31, 2018 include the following assets associated with the acquisitions of BakerCorp and BlueLine discussed in note 4 to our consolidated financial statements. No residual value has been assigned to these assets which are being amortized using the sum of the years' digits method, which we believe best reflects the estimated pattern in which the economic benefits will be consumed.
