The Company periodically assesses the collectability of accounts receivable considering factors such as specific evaluation of collectability, historical collection experience, the age of accounts receivable and other currently available evidence of the collectability, and records an allowance for doubtful accounts for the estimated uncollectable amount as appropriate. Certain of our businesses charge interest on accounts receivable either under contractual terms or where charging interest is a customary business practice. In such cases, interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. In situations where the collection of interest is uncertain, interest income is recognized as cash is received. Individual accounts and notes receivable are written off when they are no longer deemed collectable. Included in “Noncurrent other assets” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are long-term financing receivables of $278 million and $151 million, respectively, primarily with certain Latin American governmental bodies. These receivables have contractual maturities of greater than one year and are being collected in installments as scheduled. Of the total $278 million as of June 30, 2011, amounts of $213 million and $52 million, respectively, relate to our businesses in Argentina and the Dominican Republic.
