 the incremental after-tax cash flows (excess earnings) attributable solely to the asset over its remaining useful life. The economic useful life was determined based on historical customer turnover rates. Projected income from existing customer relationships considered customer retention rates (i.e. gross retention and net retention including upsell) ranging from 85.0% to 105.0% for the direct sales channel and 70.0% to 90.0% for the indirect sales channel. The present value of operating cash flows from existing customers was determined using a discount rate of approximately 10.0%.

Contract rights intangible (i.e. order backlog) represents contracted but unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations, primarily related to the dollar value of purchase arrangements with customers, effective as of a given point in time, that are based on mutually agreed terms. The fair value was determined by using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach. The economic useful life is based on the time to achieve 90.0% of cumulative undiscounted cash flows. The present value of operating cash flows from order backlog was determined using a discount rate of approximately 5.9%. 

We believe that our preliminary estimates and assumptions related to the fair value of acquired intangible assets are reasonable, but significant judgment is involved. As a result, during the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the fair value of the purchase price of our acquisitions, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our Consolidated Statements of Income or Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income.

Revenue

Our revenues are generated from two business segments: the Design Automation segment and the Design IP segment. See Note 17. Segment Disclosure of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report for more information about our reportable segments and revenue by geographic regions. 

Further disaggregation of the revenues into various products and services within these two segments is summarized as follows:

Design Automation Segment

•EDA solutions include digital, custom and FPGA IC design software, verification software and hardware products, system integration products and services, and obligations to provide unspecified updates and support services. EDA products and services are typically sold through Technology Subscription License (TSL) arrangements that grant customers the right to access and use all of the licensed products at the outset of an arrangement; software updates are generally made available
