Restructuring charges
Subsequent to our acquisition of Motorola in May 2012, we initiated a restructuring plan for Motorola, primarily in our Motorola Mobile segment, to reduce workforce, reorganize management structure, close or consolidate certain facilities, as well as simplify our mobile product portfolio. These changes were designed to return the Motorola Mobile segment to profitability. Pursuant to this restructuring plan, we have incurred cumulative charges of approximately $821 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, changes to restructuring accruals were as follows (in millions):
