Accounts receivable related to work performed for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures included in "Accounts and notes receivable, net" were $174 million and $185 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
During 2022, we sold the majority of our interest in an infrastructure joint venture in Canada and recognized a gain of $11 million. During 2021, we sold our 10% ownership interest in an infrastructure joint venture and recognized a gain of $20 million. These gains were included in Urban Solutions' segment profit.
Variable Interest Entities
The aggregate carrying value of unconsolidated VIEs (classified under both "Investments" and "Other accrued liabilities") was a net asset of $91 million and $46 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Some of our VIEs have debt; however, such debt is typically non-recourse to us. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our investments in unconsolidated VIEs is typically limited to the aggregate of the carrying value of the investment and future funding necessary to satisfy the contractual obligations of the VIE. Future funding commitments as of December 31, 2023 for the unconsolidated VIEs were $57 million.
We are required to consolidate certain VIEs. Assets and liabilities associated with the operations of our consolidated VIEs are presented on our balance sheet. The assets of a VIE are restricted for use only for the particular VIE and are not available for our general operations. We have agreements with certain VIEs to provide financial or performance assurances to clients, as discussed elsewhere.
