Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

4. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill is allocated by reportable segment as follows.



	Beauty		Grooming		Health Care		Fabric Care and Home Care		Baby, Feminine and Family Care		Corporate		Total Company
GOODWILL at June 30, 2013	$	16,663	$	20,617	$	8,318	$	4,453	$	4,828	$	309	$	55,188
Translation and Other	425		392		121		67		100		—		1,105
GOODWILL at December 31, 2013	$	17,088	$	21,009	$	8,439	$	4,520	$	4,928	$	309	$	56,293

Goodwill increased from June 30, 2013, due to currency translation across all reportable segments.

Identifiable intangible assets at December 31, 2013 are comprised of:



	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization
Intangible assets with determinable lives	$	9,853	$	5,244
Intangible assets with indefinite lives	26,986		—
Total identifiable intangible assets	$	36,839	$	5,244

Intangible assets with determinable lives consist of brands, patents, technology and customer relationships. The intangible assets with indefinite lives consist primarily of brands. The amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $129 million and $125 million, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the amortization of intangibles was $263 million and $253 million, respectively.

The results of our annual goodwill impairment testing, which took place during the quarter ended December 31, 2013, indicated a decline in the fair value of the Batteries reporting unit due to lower long-term market growth assumptions in certain key geographies. The estimated fair value of Batteries continues to exceed its underlying carrying value, but the excess has been reduced to approximately 6%. The business unit valuations used to test goodwill for impairment are dependent on a number of significant estimates and assumptions, including macroeconomic conditions, overall category growth rates, competitive activities, cost containment and margin expansion and Company business plans. We believe these estimates and assumptions are reasonable. However, actual events and results of the Batteries reporting unit could differ substantially from those used in our valuations. To the extent such factors result in a further reduction of the level of projected cash flows used to estimate the Batteries reporting unit fair value, we may need to record non-cash impairment charges in the future.
