During the first quarter of 2015, we combined the PC Client Group and Mobile and Communications Group to create the Client Computing Group (CCG). All prior-period amounts have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect our new organizational structure. For further information, see "Note 26: Operating Segments and Geographic Information." During the fourth quarters of 2014, 2013, and 2012, we completed our annual impairment assessments and we concluded that goodwill was not impaired in any of these years. The accumulated impairment losses as of December 27, 2014 were $719 million: $365 million associated with CCG, $275 million associated with Data Center Group, and $79 million associated with Internet of Things Group.
