Estimated Development Liability |
Estimated Development Liability | Note 9 - Estimated Development Liability The estimated development liability consists primarily of utilities improvements in Poinciana, Florida and Rio Rico, Arizona for more than 8,000 home sites previously sold, in most cases prior to 1980. The estimated development liability is reduced by actual expenditures and is evaluated and adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect management’s estimate of potential completion costs. In addition, we obtain third-party engineer evaluations on an annual basis and adjust this liability as necessary to reflect changes in the estimated completion costs. During the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, cash expenditures associated with these obligations were each $0.5 million. Future increases or decreases of costs for construction, material and labor, as well as other land development and utilities infrastructure costs, may have a significant effect on the estimated development liability. The balance of the estimated development liability was $31.6 million and $32.1 million as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
