The ending balance of gross finance receivables collectively evaluated for impairment includes approximately $476 million and $1 million of finance receivables within the retail loan and commercial portfolio segments, respectively, that are specifically identified as impaired. These amounts are aggregated with their respective portfolio segments when determining the allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2012, as they are deemed to be insignificant for individual evaluation and we have determined that the allowance for credit losses would not be materially different if the amounts had been individually evaluated for impairment.
