COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Guarantees of Subsidiary Performance Obligations From time to time in the ordinary course of business, the company guarantees obligations of its subsidiaries under certain contracts. Generally, the company is liable under such an arrangement only if its subsidiary is unable to perform under its contract. Historically, the company has not incurred any substantial liabilities resulting from these guarantees. In addition, the company’s subsidiaries may enter into joint ventures, teaming and other business arrangements (collectively, Business Arrangements) to support the company’s products and services in domestic and international markets. The company generally strives to limit its exposure under these arrangements to its subsidiary’s investment in the Business Arrangements or to the extent of such subsidiary’s obligations under the applicable contract. In some cases, however, the company may be required to guarantee performance by the Business Arrangements and, in such cases, the company generally strives to obtain cross-indemnification from the other members of the Business Arrangements. At September 30, 2014, the company is not aware of any existing event of default that would require it to satisfy any of these guarantees. U.S. Government Cost Claims From time to time, the company is advised of claims by the U.S. Government concerning certain potential disallowed costs, plus, at times, penalties and interest. When such findings are presented, the company and the U.S. Government representatives engage in discussions to enable the company to evaluate the merits of these claims, as well as to assess the amounts being claimed. Where appropriate, provisions are made to reflect the company’s estimated exposure for matters raised by the U.S. Government. Such provisions are reviewed periodically using the most recent information available. The company believes it has adequately reserved for disputed amounts that are probable and estimable, and the outcome of any such matters would not have a material adverse effect on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2014, or its annual results of operations and/or cash flows. Environmental Matters The estimated cost to complete remediation at certain current or formerly owned or leased sites has been accrued where the company believes, based on the facts and circumstances known to the company, it is probable the company will incur costs to address environmental impacts and the costs are reasonably estimable. As of September 30, 2014, management estimates the range of reasonably possible future costs for environmental remediation is between $363 million and $798 million, before considering the amount recoverable through overhead charges on U.S. Government contracts. At September 30, 2014, the amount within that range that is accrued for probable environmental remediation costs was $381 million, of which $135 million is accrued in other current liabilities and $246 million is accrued in other non-current liabilities. A portion of the environmental remediation costs is expected to be recoverable through overhead charges on government contracts and, accordingly, such amounts are deferred in inventoried costs and other non-current assets. As of September 30, 2014, $69 million is deferred in inventoried costs and $124 million is deferred in other non-current assets. These amounts are evaluated for recoverability on a routine basis. Although management cannot predict whether new information gained as our environmental remediation projects progress, or as changes in facts and circumstances occur, will materially affect the estimated liability accrued, management does not anticipate future remediation expenditures associated with our currently identified projects will have a material adverse effect on the company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2014, or its annual results of operations and/or cash flows. Financial Arrangements In the ordinary course of business, the company uses stand-by letters of credit and guarantees issued by commercial banks and surety bonds issued principally by insurance companies to guarantee the performance on certain obligations. At September 30, 2014, there were $298 million of stand-by letters of credit and guarantees and $158 million of surety bonds outstanding. Credit Facility The company maintains an unsecured credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.775 billion (the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement contains customary terms and conditions, including covenants restricting the company's ability to sell all or substantially all of its assets, merge or consolidate with another entity or undertake other fundamental changes and incur liens. The company also cannot permit the ratio of its debt to capitalization (as set forth in the Credit Agreement) to exceed 65 percent. At September 30, 2014, there was no balance outstanding under this facility. The company was in compliance with all covenants under its Credit Agreement on September 30, 2014. Indemnifications The company has retained certain environmental, income tax and other potential liabilities in connection with certain of its divestitures. The settlement of these liabilities is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2014, or its annual results of operations or cash flows. Operating Leases Rental expense for operating leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, was $84 million and $229 million, respectively, and was $75 million and $223 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. These amounts are net of immaterial amounts of sublease rental income.
