Other indefinite-lived intangible assets were $76 million and $86 million at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and principally included registered trademarks. During the first quarter of 2019, we recognized a $9 million impairment charge related to a registered trademark in our Decorative Architectural Products segment due to a change in the long-term net sales projections of lighting products. As a result of our 2018 acquisition, other indefinite-lived intangible assets increased by $59 million as of the acquisition date.
We completed our annual impairment testing of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets in the fourth quarters of 2019, 2018 and 2017. There was no impairment of goodwill for any of our reporting units or of our other indefinite-lived intangible assets in any of these years, other than as disclosed above.
The carrying value of our definite-lived intangible assets was $183 million (net of accumulated amortization of $48 million) at December 31, 2019 and $202 million (net of accumulated amortization of $26 million) at December 31, 2018 and principally included customer relationships with a weighted average amortization period of 17 years in 2019 and 16 years in 2018. Amortization expense, including discontinued operations, related to the definite-lived intangible assets was $23 million, $20 million and $4 million in 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As a result of our 2018 acquisition, definite-lived intangible assets increased by $181 million, as of the acquisition date.
At December 31, 2019, amortization expense related to the definite-lived intangible assets during each of the next five years was as follows: 2020 – $24 million; 2021 – $16 million; 2022 – $12 million, 2023 – $11 million and 2024 –$11 million.
