Advances to Joint Ventures
ADVANCES TO JOINT VENTURES
We make various advances to our unconsolidated joint ventures to provide working capital for the joint ventures’ operations, which are not collateralized, do not carry interest, and have no specific repayment terms. At October 31, 2015 and 2014, the aggregate amounts of these advances were $1.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and are included in “Other noncurrent assets” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
