Short-Term and Long-Term Borrowings [Abstract] |
Debt Disclosure | Short-Term and Long-Term Borrowings Repurchase Facility In February 2016, the company entered into a committed receivable repurchase agreement of up to $1,000 (the Repurchase Facility). The Repurchase Facility is structured to account for the seasonality of the agricultural business and expires on November 30, 2016. Under the Repurchase Facility, the company may sell a portfolio of available and eligible outstanding customer notes receivables within the Agriculture segment to participating institutions and simultaneously must agree to repurchase such notes receivable at a future date. The Repurchase Facility is considered a secured borrowing with the customer notes receivables utilized as collateral. The amount of collateral required equals 105% of the outstanding borrowing amounts. Borrowings under the Repurchase Facility have an interest rate of the London interbank offered rate (LIBOR) plus 0.75%. As of March 31, 2016, $315 of notes receivable, recorded in accounts and notes receivable, net, were pledged as collateral against outstanding borrowings under the Repurchase Facility of $300, recorded in short-term borrowings and capital lease obligations. Term Loan Facility In March 2016, the company entered into a credit agreement that provides for a three-year, senior unsecured term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $4,500 (the Term Loan Facility). DuPont may make up to seven term loan borrowings within one year of the closing date and amounts repaid or prepaid are not available for subsequent borrowings. The Term Loan Facility matures in March 2019 at which time all outstanding borrowings, including accrued but unpaid interest, become immediately due and payable. Under the Term Loan Facility, DuPont can borrow funds at LIBOR plus a spread from 0.75% to 1.25% (LIBOR Loan Rate) depending on DuPont's long term credit rating. As of March 31, 2016, the company had borrowed $500 at the LIBOR Loan Rate and had unused commitments of $4,000 under the Term Loan Facility. DuPont has the option of obtaining a same day loan under the Term Loan Facility at an interest rate based on the higher of a) the LIBOR Loan Rate, b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% plus a margin from 0.00% to 0.25% depending on DuPont's long term credit rating (Margin) or c) the prime rate plus Margin.
