Financing Arrangements [Abstract]  
Debt Disclosure Financing Arrangements
Structured Accounts Payable Arrangements
In Brazil, we finance some of our potash-based fertilizer, sulfur, ammonia and other raw material product purchases through third-party financing arrangements. These arrangements provide that the third-party intermediary advance the amount of the scheduled payment to the vendor, less an appropriate discount, at a scheduled payment date and Mosaic makes payment to the third-party intermediary at a later date, stipulated in accordance with the commercial terms negotiated. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the total structured accounts payable arrangements were $797.5 million and $640.0 million, respectively.
Receivable Purchasing Arrangement
On March 4, 2020, we entered into a Receivable Purchasing Agreement (“RPA”), with a bank whereby, from time-to-time, we sell certain receivables. The net face value of the purchased receivables may not exceed $150 million at any point in time. The purchase price of the receivable sold under the RPA is the face value of the receivable less an agreed upon discount. As of December 31, 2020, there was no outstanding balance under this facility. In January 2021, we entered into a First Amendment to the RPA. This amendment made certain adjustments so that the receivables sold under the RPA will be accounted for as a true sale. Upon sale, these receivables are removed from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash received is presented as cash provided by operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Prior to the amendment, we recorded the purchase price as short-term debt, and recognized interest expense by accreting the liability through the due date of the underlying receivables.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company sold approximately $86.6 million and $101.5 million, respectively, of accounts receivable under this arrangement. Discounts on sold receivables were not material for any period presented. Following the sale to the bank, we continue to service the collection of the receivable on behalf of the bank without further consideration. As of March 31, 2021, $86.6 million had been collected but not yet remitted to the bank. This amount is classified in accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash collected and remitted are presented as financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
