Deferred product revenue represents unrecognized revenue related to undelivered product commitments and other product deliveries that have not met all revenue recognition criteria. Deferred services revenue represents customer payments made in advance for services, which include software and hardware maintenance contracts and other services. Financed unearned services revenue represents undelivered services for which cash has been received under certain third-party financing arrangements. See Note 16 – Commitments and Contingencies for additional information related to these arrangements. The following tables summarize the activity related to deferred revenue and financed unearned services revenue (in millions):
|  | Nine Months Ended |
|  | January 29, 2021 |  |  | January 24, 2020 |
Balance at beginning of period |  | $ | 3,698 |  |  | $ | 3,668 |
Additions |  |  | 2,269 |  |  |  | 1,759 |
Revenue recognized during the period |  |  | (2,139 | ) |  |  | (1,854 | )
Balance at end of period |  | $ | 3,828 |  |  | $ | 3,573 |
During the nine months ended January 29, 2021 and January 24, 2020, we recognized $1,687 million and $1,504 million, respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue and financed unearned services revenue balance at the beginning of the respective periods. As of January 29, 2021, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations related to customer contracts that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied was $3,828 million, which is equivalent to our deferred revenue and unearned services revenue balance. Because customer orders are typically placed on an as-needed basis, and cancellable without penalty prior to shipment, orders in backlog may not be a meaningful indicator of future revenue and have not been included in this amount. We expect to recognize as revenue approximately 51% of our deferred revenue and financed unearned services revenue balance in the next 12 months, approximately 25% in the next 13 to 24 months, and the remainder thereafter. Deferred commissions The following tables summarize the activity related to deferred commissions and their balances as reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets (in millions):
|  | Nine Months Ended |
|  | January 29, 2021 |  |  | January 24, 2020 |
Balance at beginning of period |  | $ | 156 |  |  | $ | 172 |
Additions |  |  | 89 |  |  |  | 52 |
Expense recognized during the period |  |  | (73 | ) |  |  | (72 | )
Balance at end of period |  | $ | 172 |  |  | $ | 152 |
|  | January 29, 2021 |  |  | April 24, 2020 |
Other current assets |  | $ | 71 |  |  | $ | 67 |
