In the following tables, revenue is disaggregated by major lines of goods and services and timing of transfer of goods and services. We have determined that these categories depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The tables below also include a reconciliation of the disaggregated revenue to reportable segment revenue.

Receivables from Contracts with Customers, Contract Assets, and Contract Liabilities

The following table provides the balances of our receivables from contracts with customers and our current and long-term contract assets and contract liabilities:


	March 31, 2021		December 31, 2020
Receivables from contracts with customers, net	$	650.3	$	595.0
Contract Asset (Current)	$	18.6	$	25.7
Contract Asset (Long-Term)	$	5.3	$	10.2
Contract Liability (Current)	$	32.6	$	32.5
Contract Liability (Long-Term)	$	56.3	$	56.0

The change in the balances of our contract assets and contract liabilities primarily result from the timing differences between our performance and the customer’s payment, as well as changes in the estimated transaction price related to variable consideration that was constrained for performance obligations satisfied in previous periods. The following table presents

revenue recognized during the period from amounts included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period and performance obligations satisfied in previous periods:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2021		2020
Amounts included in contract liability at the beginning of the period	$	8.7	$	8.5
Performance obligations satisfied in previous periods	$	5.4	$	—
