Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Income taxes included $10 million and $32 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2016, respectively, and $33 million and $71 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, related to changes in amounts of net deferred tax assets associated with MMJ and MMT. Income taxes for the first quarter of 2016 also included a benefit of $41 million related to a U.S. valuation allowance release resulting from the acquisition of Tidal Systems, Ltd. Remaining taxes for the second quarters and first six months of 2016 and 2015 primarily reflect taxes on our non-U.S. operations. We have a full valuation allowance for our net deferred tax asset associated with our U.S. operations. Management continues to evaluate future projected financial performance to determine whether such performance is sufficient evidence to support a reduction in or reversal of the valuation allowance. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could be adjusted if sufficient positive evidence exists. Income taxes on U.S. operations in the second quarters and first six months of 2016 and 2015 were substantially offset by changes in the valuation allowance. The resolution of tax audits or lapses of statute of limitations could reduce our unrecognized tax benefits. Although the timing of final resolution is uncertain, the estimated potential reduction in our unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months ranges from $0 to $62 million, including interest and penalties. We operate in tax jurisdictions, including Singapore and Taiwan, where our earnings are indefinitely reinvested and are taxed at lower effective tax rates than the U.S. statutory rate. We operate in a number of locations outside the U.S., including Singapore and, to a lesser extent, Taiwan, where we have tax incentive arrangements that are conditional, in part, upon meeting certain business operations and employment thresholds. The effect of tax incentive arrangements, which expire in whole or in part at various dates through 2030, were not significant to our tax provision for the second quarter or the first six months of 2016. These arrangements reduced our tax provision for the second quarter and first six months of 2015 by $97 million (benefitting our diluted earnings per share by $0.08), and $237 million ($0.20 per diluted share), respectively.
