Restructuring charges

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, we incurred $2 million in restructuring charges related to our plans to phase out a manufacturing facility in Greenock, Scotland, through the end of 2018. These charges were comprised of severance and benefits costs, as well as accelerated depreciation. Total restructuring charges, primarily severance and related benefit costs, are estimated to be about $40 million, of which $19 million has been recognized through March 31, 2016. The remaining charges are expected to be recognized through the end of 2018. As of March 31, 2016, no payments have been made.

Restructuring balances

The restructuring accrual balances are primarily reported as a component of either Accrued expenses and other liabilities or Deferred credits and other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, depending on the expected timing of payment. The $32 million balance as of December 31, 2015, was composed of $17 million related to the Scotland facility and $15 million related to prior actions. The $29 million balance as of March 31, 2016, is composed of $17 million related to the Scotland facility and $12 million related to prior actions.
