[1] As described in Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies, in 2016, we reclassified estimated probable insurance and other recoveries from our self-insurance liability to receivables for all years presented.
[2] Represents liabilities for inventory not owned associated with financing arrangements discussed in Note 8 – Variable Interest Entities, as well as liabilities for fixed or determinable amounts associated with TIFE assessments. As homes are delivered, the obligation to pay the remaining TIFE assessments associated with each underlying lot is transferred to the homebuyer. As such, these assessment obligations will be paid by us only to the extent we do not deliver homes on applicable lots before the related TIFE obligations mature.
