The items on the Company’s balance sheets affected by the use of estimates include but are not limited to, investments, premiums and accounts receivable, reinsurance recoverables, deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”), deferred income taxes and associated valuation allowances, goodwill, valuation of business acquired (“VOBA”), future policy benefits and expenses, unearned premiums, claims and benefits payable, deferred gain on disposal of businesses, pension and post-retirement liabilities and commitments and contingencies. The estimates are sensitive to market conditions, investment yields, mortality, morbidity, commissions and other acquisition expenses, policyholder behavior and other factors. Actual results could differ from the estimates recorded. The Company believes all amounts reported are reasonable and adequate.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:8px;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">During the fourth quarter of 2015, we identified and corrected errors that originated in prior periods and assessed the materiality of the errors using quantitative and qualitative factors. The errors primarily related to the overstatement of other assets associated with our mobile business inventory and the overstatement of accounts receivable associated with our legacy run-off warranty business. The correction of these errors resulted in a decrease to Assurant Solutions net income of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$8,200</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> for the year ended December 31, 2015 and the fourth quarter of 2015. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:8px;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">We performed both a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the materiality of the errors and concluded that the errors were not material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows for any previously reported quarterly or annual financial statements or for the current period in which they were corrected.</font></div></div>
