Commercial Aircraft Programs
The increase in commercial aircraft programs inventory during 2022 reflects a continued buildup of 787 aircraft, as well as growth in 777X inventory. Commercial aircraft programs inventory includes approximately 320 737 MAX aircraft and 115 787 aircraft at March 31, 2022 as compared with 335 737 MAX aircraft and 110 787 aircraft at December 31, 2021.
A number of customers have requested to defer deliveries or to cancel orders. We are currently remarketing certain aircraft and may have to remarket additional aircraft in future periods. If we are unable to successfully remarket the aircraft, determine further production rate reductions are necessary, and/or contract the program accounting quantities, future earnings may be reduced and/or additional reach-forward losses may have to be recorded.
At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, commercial aircraft programs inventory included the following amounts related to the 737 program: deferred production costs of $1,753 and $1,296 and unamortized tooling and other non-recurring costs of $600 and $617. At March 31, 2022, $2,343 of 737 deferred production costs, unamortized tooling and other non-recurring costs are expected to be recovered from units included in the program accounting quantity that have firm orders and $10 is expected to be recovered from units included in the program accounting quantity that represent expected future orders.
At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, commercial aircraft programs inventory included the following amounts related to the 777X program: deferred production costs of $1,091 and $652 and $3,572 and $3,521 of unamortized tooling and other non-recurring costs. In April 2022, we decided to pause production of the 777X-9 during 2022 and 2023. We expect that the production pause will result in abnormal production costs that will be period expensed in future periods and continue until 777X-9 production resumes. The 777X program has near break-even margins at March 31, 2022. The level of profitability on the 777X program will be subject to a number of factors. These factors include continued market uncertainty, the impacts of COVID-19 on our production system as well as impacts on our supply chain and customers, further production rate adjustments for the 777X or other commercial aircraft programs, any contraction of the accounting quantity and potential risks associated with the testing program and the timing of aircraft certification. One or more of these factors could result in additional reach-forward losses on the 777X program in future periods.
During the fourth quarter of 2021, we determined that estimated costs to complete the 787 program plus costs already included in 787 inventory exceeded estimated revenues from the program. The resulting reach-forward loss of $3,460 was recorded as a reduction to deferred production costs. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, commercial aircraft programs inventory included the following amounts related to the 787 program: deferred production costs of $11,753 and $11,693, $1,861 and $1,907 of supplier advances, and $1,818 and $1,815 of unamortized tooling and other non-recurring costs. At March 31, 2022, $8,901 of 787 deferred production costs, unamortized tooling and other non-recurring costs are expected to be recovered from units included in the program accounting quantity that have firm
orders and $4,670 is expected to be recovered from units included in the program accounting quantity that represent expected future orders. We expensed abnormal production costs of $312 during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Commercial aircraft programs inventory included amounts credited in cash or other consideration (early issue sales consideration) to airline customers totaling $3,383 and $3,290 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
