Immaterial Items
Investment in Equity Alliances
and Equity Alliances Gains/(Losses)
The investments in equity alliances and the resulting gains and
(losses) from these investments that are attributable to the segments
did not have a material effect on the financial position or the financial
results of the segments.
Segment Assets and Other Items
Global Technology Services assets are primarily plant, property and
equipment including the assets associated with the outsourcing
business, goodwill, accounts receivable, deferred services arrange-
ment transition costs, maintenance parts inventory and acquired
intangible assets. Global Business Services assets are primarily
goodwill and accounts receivable. Software assets are mainly good-
will, acquired intangible assets and accounts receivable. Systems
and Technology assets are primarily plant, property and equipment,
goodwill, manufacturing inventory and accounts receivable. Global
Financing assets are primarily financing receivables and fixed assets
under operating leases.
To ensure the efficient use of the company’s space and equip-
ment, several segments may share plant, property and equipment
assets. Where assets are shared, landlord ownership of the assets
is assigned to one segment and is not allocated to each user seg-
ment. This is consistent with the company’s management system
and is reflected accordingly in the table on page 144. In those cases,
there will not be a precise correlation between segment pre-tax
income and segment assets.
Similarly, the depreciation amounts reported by each segment
are based on the assigned landlord ownership and may not be con-
sistent with the amounts that are included in the segments’ pre-tax
income. The amounts that are included in pre-tax income reflect
occupancy charges from the landlord segment and are not specifi-
cally identified by the management reporting system. Capital
expenditures that are reported by each segment also are consistent
with the landlord ownership basis of asset assignment.
Global Financing amounts for interest income and interest
expense reflect the interest income and interest expense associated
with the Global Financing business, including the intercompany
financing activities discussed on pages 33 and 34, as well as
the income from investment in cash and marketable securities.
The explanation of the difference between cost of financing and
interest expense for segment presentation versus presentation in
the Consolidated Statement of Earnings is included on page 75 of
the Management Discussion.
