17. Foreign Currency Gain (Loss), Net

Net foreign currency gain or loss includes non-cash translation gain or loss associated with intercompany balances. A substantial portion of the Company’s net foreign currency gain or loss is non-cash translation gain or loss associated with intercompany long-term loans to our Korean subsidiary. The loans are denominated in U.S. dollars and are affected by changes in the exchange rate between the Korean won and the U.S. dollar. As of December 31, 2013, the total intercompany loan balance was $536 million. The Korean won to U.S. dollar exchange rates were 1,055.3:1, 1,071.1:1 and 1,153.3:1 using the first base rate as of December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, as quoted by the Korea Exchange Bank.
