Increases (deductions) from the allowance for credit losses equal accounts receivable written off and increases related to acquired businesses, less recoveries, against the allowance. See Note 2 for additional information. Increases (deductions) to the valuation of deferred tax assets relate to the reversals due to changes in management’s judgments regarding the future realization of the underlying deferred tax assets. |
