(1) Balances related to United States were $490.3 as of January 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019 and $490.2 as of December 31, 2020.

(2) Balances related to France were $68.9, $67.3 and $73.3 as of January 1, 2019, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Balances related to Italy were $4.8, $4.6 and $4.2 as of January 1, 2019, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

(3) The majority of the Corporate balance as of December 31, 2019 and 2020 relates to goodwill attributable to our acquisitions of Right Management ($62.1) and Jefferson Wells ($55.5). Jefferson Wells is part of the United States reporting unit. For purposes of monitoring our total assets by segment, we do not allocate the Corporate balance to the respective reportable segments as this is commensurate with how we operate our business. We do, however, include these balances within the appropriate reporting units for our goodwill impairment testing. See table below for the breakout of goodwill balances by reporting unit.

(4) Balances were net of accumulated impairment loss of $513.4 ($235.2 related to Right Management and $278.2 related to Corporate) as of January 1, 2019, $577.4 ($60.2 related to Northern Europe, $3.8 related to APME, $235.2 related to Right Management and $278.2 related to Corporate) as of December 31, 2019, and $644.2 ($127.0 related to Northern Europe, $3.8 related to APME, $235.2 related to Right Management and $278.2 related to Corporate) as of December 31, 2020.

(5) Reductions relate to our China and Hong Kong reporting units, which were deconsolidated as of July 10, 2019. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

(6) The 2019 impairment charges of $60.2 and $3.8 relate to our Germany and New Zealand reporting units, respectively, which were recorded during the second quarter of 2019. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

(7) The 2020 impairment charge of $66.8 relates to our Germany reporting unit, which was recorded during the second quarter of 2020. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
