Certain intangible assets including goodwill are denominated in foreign currency and, as such, include the effects of foreign currency translation. Changes in the net carrying value amount of goodwill were as follows (in millions):
| Total
Goodwill as of December 31, 2013 | $ | 156 |

Goodwill as of December 31, 2014 | 2,490 |
Opening balance sheet adjustments – Enterprise 2015 | 11 |
Foreign exchange impact | (8 | )
Goodwill as of December 31, 2015 | $ | 2,493 |
Gross goodwill was $266 million and accumulated impairments were $110 million as of December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2015 goodwill totaled $2.3 billion for the Enterprise reportable segment and $154 million for the Legacy Zebra reportable segment. The Retail Solutions Group reporting unit had total goodwill of $59.0 million as of December 31, 2015. During the fourth quarter of 2015, we finalized the determination of estimated fair value of the Retail Solutions Group reporting unit as of the first day of the fourth quarter of 2015. The determination of fair value and the allocation of that value to individual assets and liabilities within the Retail Solutions Group reporting unit requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions primarily include, but are not limited to: the selection of appropriate peer group companies; a control premium appropriate for acquisitions in the industries in which the Retail Solutions Group reporting unit competes; a discount rate; a terminal growth rate; and forecasts of revenue, operating income, depreciation and amortization and capital expenditures. The estimate of fair value indicated that the fair value of the Retail Solutions Group reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 12% as of the valuation date. Although we believe our estimate of fair value is reasonable, actual financial results could differ from that estimate due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making such estimate.
