The gross asset balances of the in-place value of tenant leases are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over periods that approximate the related lease terms. The above-market and below-market tenant and ground leases are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets and Accounts payable and accrued expenses as detailed in Note 11 and are amortized over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases.

Amortization/accretion of these intangible assets and liabilities decreased our income (excluding the impact of noncontrolling interest and the provision for income taxes) by $2.5 million in 2012, $2.0 million in 2011 and $0.8 million in 2010.

Future amortization is estimated to decrease income (excluding the impact of noncontrolling interest and the provision for income taxes) by $2.0 million in 2013, $1.9 million in 2014, $1.7 million in 2015, $1.6 million in 2016, $1.7 million in 2017, and $21.9 million thereafter.
