Also included in accounts receivable are amounts due from the Company’s joint venture partner. The June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 accounts receivable amounts were $8.6 million and $24.5 million, respectively. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, accounts receivable included $4.4 million and $15.9 million, respectively, from the Company’s joint venture partner. Income Taxes Receivable and Current Income Taxes Payable The Company’s June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 income tax receivable amounts were $1.8 million and none, respectively. The June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 current income taxes payable amounts were none and $10.5 million, respectively. Value-Added Tax Receivable Value-added tax (referred to as “IGV” in Peru) is generally imposed on goods and services at a rate of 18% effective March 2011 and was 19% in previous periods. The Company is recovering its IGV receivable with IGV payables associated with oil sales under the normal IGV recovery process. Under the SPA and carry agreement entered into with Pacific Rubiales related to the sale of a 49% participating interest in Block Z-1, Pacific Rubiales funded the IGV incurred for 100% of the capital and exploratory expenditures of Block Z-1. Upon closing of the transaction, the IGV balance related to this funding was transferred to Pacific Rubiales along with their respective share of assets. See Note-2, “Divestiture.” Activity related to the Company’s value-added tax receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2012 is as follows: <table style="TEXT-INDENT: 0px;
