8. Business realignment charges, cont'd
The charges primarily consist of severance costs related to actions taken under the Company's Simplification initiative aimed at reducing organizational and process complexity, as well as plant closures, with the majority of the charges incurred in Europe and North America. Also, during the current-year quarter, $80 of severance costs for two people were included in the corporate general and administrative expenses caption in the Business Segment Information. In addition, asset write-downs of $116 and $1,915 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, were recognized in connection with plant closures in the Diversified Industrial Segment and are reflected in the other expense caption in the Business Segment Information. In connection with a plant closure, the Company recognized an expense associated with enhanced retirement benefits (refer to Note 11 for further discussion). The Company believes the realignment actions will positively impact future results of operations but will not have a material effect on liquidity and sources and uses of capital.

As of December 31, 2015, approximately $23 million in severance payments had been made relating to charges incurred during fiscal 2016, the remainder of which are expected to be paid by December 31, 2016.

Remaining severance payments related to current-year and prior-year actions of approximately $36 million are primarily reflected within the other accrued liabilities caption in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Additional charges may be recognized in future periods related to the realignment actions described above, the timing and amount of which are not known at this time.
