We accounted for these transactions under ASU 2017-01. As a result, we treated our acquisitions during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 as asset acquisitions rather than business combinations. As a result of this treatment, we capitalized $0.9 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of acquisition costs that would otherwise have been expensed under business combination treatment.
(4)
We entered into an interest rate swap in connection with $4.7 million of issued debt on our Columbus, Ohio acquisition, pursuant to which we will pay our counterparty a fixed interest rate of 3.22%, and receive a variable interest rate of one month LIBOR from our counterparty. Our total interest rate on this debt is fixed at 5.32%. We have elected to treat this interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge, and all changes in fair market value will be recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheets.
(5)
We assumed an interest rate swap in connection with $11.2 million of assumed debt on our Conshohocken, Pennsylvania acquisition, pursuant to which we will pay our counterparty a fixed interest rate of 1.80%, and receive a variable interest rate of one month LIBOR from our counterparty. Our total interest rate on this debt is fixed at 3.55%. The interest rate swap had a fair value of $0.04 million upon the date of assumption, and subsequently increased in value to $0.5 million at December 31, 2018. We have elected to treat this interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge, and all changes in fair market value will be recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheets.

In connection with this contraction, we will earn a contraction fee of $0.3 million, which is recognized through rental revenue on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income through the contraction term, and we wrote off $0.1 million of deferred rent asset to property operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. A tenant in our Champaign, Illinois property exercised a lease contraction to reduce its occupancy in our building by 20,400 square feet. They will continue to lease 87,862 square feet through their original lease term. In connection with this contraction, we will earn a contraction fee of $0.2 million, which is recognized through rental revenue on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income through the contraction term, and we wrote off $0.1 million of deferred rent asset to property operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. We recorded contraction fees of $0.2 million, in the aggregate, during the year ended December 31, 2018.
