Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	NOTE 18—INCOME TAXES During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized an income tax expense of $72 million (effective tax rate of -4%), compared to income tax expense of $44 million (effective tax rate of 99.5%) for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The lower effective tax rate was almost entirely due to discrete charges, which were primarily related to the non-deductible goodwill impairment, described in Note 9, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized an income tax expense of $2 million (effective tax rate of 0%), compared to an income tax benefit of $19 million (effective tax rate of 31%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The lower effective tax rate was largely due to discrete charges, which were primarily related to the non-deductible goodwill impairment, described in Note 9, Goodwill and Other Intangibles Assets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our unrecognized tax benefits decreased by $19 million, primarily due to a favorable court ruling on tax matters. We do not anticipate additional significant changes to this balance in the next 12 months.
