Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	INCOME TAXES Our effective tax rate increased from 32.4% to 32.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, primarily due to additional deferred tax expense resulting from a tax rate change in a foreign jurisdiction, partially offset by the beneficial tax impact of the strengthening U.S. Dollar in relation to foreign currencies. For the 2016 first quarter, our unrecognized tax benefits balance of $25 million increased by $1 million from year-end 2015 for tax positions taken during the current period. The unrecognized tax benefits balance included $16 million of tax positions that, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate. We file income tax returns, including returns for our subsidiaries, in various jurisdictions around the world. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) has examined our federal income tax returns, and we have settled all issues for tax years through 2013. We participate in the IRS Compliance Assurance Program, which accelerates IRS examination of key transactions with the goal of resolving any issues before the taxpayer files its return. As a result, our 2014 tax year audit is substantially complete, pending the resolution of one issue. Our 2015 and 2016 tax year audits are currently ongoing. Various foreign, state, and local income tax returns are also under examination by the applicable taxing authorities. We paid cash for income taxes, net of refunds, of $43 million in the 2016 first quarter and $58 million in the 2015 first quarter.
