Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] |
CONTRACT ASSETS AND CONTRACT LIABILITIES | NOTE 7: CONTRACT ASSETS AND CONTRACT LIABILITIES Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from revenue recognized exceeding amounts billed to customers for contracts utilizing the POC cost-to-cost revenue recognition method. We bill customers as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals, upon achievement of contractual milestones or upon deliveries and, in certain arrangements, the customer may withhold payment of a small portion of the contract price until contract completion. Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized, including deferred revenue associated with extended product warranties. Contract assets and liabilities are reported on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Contract assets and liabilities in fiscal 2020 were impacted primarily by divestitures, reclassifications to assets and liabilities of disposal group held for sale, accelerated progress payments due to the U.S. Government's increase in the progress payment rate from 80 percent to 90 percent and the timing of contractual billing milestones. See Note 3: Business Divestitures and Asset Sales in these Notes for additional information regarding assets and liabilities held for sale. Contract assets and contract liabilities are summarized below:
(In millions) | January 1, 2021 |  | January 3, 2020 |  |
Contract assets | $ | 2,437 |  |  | $ | 2,459 |  |  |

Net contract assets | $ | 1,166 |  |  | $ | 1,158 |  |  |
_______________ (1)The non-current portion of contract liabilities is included as a component of the “Other long-term liabilities” line item in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The components of contract assets are summarized below:

Impairment losses related to our contract assets were not material in fiscal 2020, the two quarters ended January 3, 2020, or fiscal 2019 or 2018. In fiscal 2020, we recognized $961 million of revenue related to contract liabilities that were outstanding at January 3, 2020. In the two quarters ended January 3, 2020 and in fiscal 2019 and 2018, we recognized $776 million, $287 million and $204 million, respectively, of revenue related to contract liabilities that were outstanding at the end of the respective prior fiscal year. NOTE 24: BACKLOG Backlog, which is the equivalent of our remaining performance obligations, represents the future revenue we expect to recognize as we perform on our current contracts. Backlog comprises both funded backlog (i.e., firm orders for which funding is authorized and appropriated) and unfunded backlog. Backlog excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts, such as indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contracts. At January 1, 2021, our ending backlog was $21.7 billion. We expect to recognize approximately 54 percent of the revenue associated with this backlog by the end of 2021 and approximately 85 percent by the end of 2023, with the remainder to be recognized thereafter. At January 3, 2020, our ending backlog was $20.6 billion, including $380 million of backlog associated with the airport security and automation business, which was divested during the quarter ended July 3, 2020.
