Accounts Receivable Factoring

From time to time we may participate in a factoring program to sell accounts receivable in Mexico to third party financial institutions. We did not sell any accounts receivable during 2014. In 2013, we sold $215 million under the program, received cash totaling $204 million and recognized a loss of $3 million on these sales. In 2012, we sold approximately $177 million under the program, received cash totaling $163 million and recognized a loss of $1 million on these sales. Our factoring transactions in 2013 and 2012 qualified for sale accounting under U.S. GAAP and all related proceeds are included as operating cash flows in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
