(8)The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits at January 29, 2017 were $187 million, compared to $198 million at October 30, 2016. The liability at January 29, 2017, October 30, 2016, and January 31, 2016 consisted of approximately $77 million, $81 million, and $71 million, respectively, which would affect the effective tax rate if the tax benefits were recognized. The remaining liability was related to tax positions for which there are offsetting tax receivables, or the uncertainty was only related to timing. The changes in the unrecognized tax benefits for the first three months of 2017 were not significant. The Company expects that any reasonably possible change in the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months would not be significant.
