Guarantees [Abstract] |
Guarantees [Text Block] | NOTE 6: GUARANTEES EKC guarantees obligations to third parties for some of its consolidated subsidiaries. The maximum amount guaranteed is $49 million and the outstanding amount for those guarantees is $19 million. In connection with the settlement of certain of the Company’s historical environmental liabilities at Eastman Business Park, in the event the historical liabilities exceed $99 million, the Company will become liable for 50% of the portion above $99 million with no limitation to the maximum potential future payments. There is no liability recorded for this guarantee. Warranty Costs Kodak has warranty obligations in connection with the sale of its products and equipment. The original warranty period is generally three months or less. In limited cases it may be longer but never exceeding one year. The costs incurred to provide for these warranty obligations are estimated and recorded as an accrued liability at the time of sale. Kodak estimates its warranty cost at the point of sale for a given product based on historical failure rates and related costs to repair. The change in Kodak’s accrued warranty obligations balance, which is reflected in Other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, was as follows: (in millions)
Accrued warranty obligations as of December 31, 2014 |  | $ | 5 |
Actual warranty experience during 2015 |  |  | 2 |
2015 warranty provisions |  |  | (2 | )
Accrued warranty obligations as of March 31, 2015 |  | $ | 5 |
Kodak also offers its customers extended warranty arrangements that are generally one year, but may range from three months to five years after the original warranty period. Kodak provides repair services and routine maintenance under these arrangements. Kodak has not separated the extended warranty revenues and costs from the routine maintenance service revenues and costs, as it is not practicable to do so. Therefore, these revenues and costs have been aggregated in the discussion that follows. The change in Kodak’s deferred revenue balance in relation to these extended warranty and maintenance arrangements from December 31, 2014 to March 31, 2015, which is reflected in Other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, was as follows: (in millions)
Deferred revenue on extended warranties as of December 31, 2014 |  | $ | 27 |
New extended warranty and maintenance arrangements in 2015 |  |  | 44 |
Recognition of extended warranty and maintenance arrangement revenue in 2015 |  |  | (45 | )
Deferred revenue on extended warranties as of March 31, 2015 |  | $ | 26 |
