The following is a reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 35% to our recorded income tax
expense/(benefit):
Years ended December 31, 2008 2007 2006
U.S. federal statutory tax 35.0% 35.0% 35.0%
Global Settlement with U.S. Department of Justice 6.7

Other provision adjustments 1.2 (0.5) (3.2)
Income tax expense 33.6% 33.7% 30.9%
Significant components of our deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, at December 31 were
as follows:
2008 2007
Retiree health care accruals $ 2,970 $ 2,581
Inventory and long-term contract methods of income recognition and other (net of
valuation allowance of $17 and $0) (604) 638
Partnerships and Joint Ventures (500) (429)
Other employee benefits accruals 1,367 1,476

Pension asset (liability) 3,026 (1,648)
Customer and commercial financing (1,604) (1,587)
Unremitted earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries (55) (48)
Other net unrealized losses (gains) 197 (18)
Net deferred tax assets1$5,160 $ 1,348
1Of the deferred tax asset for net operating loss and credit carryovers, $155 expires in years ending
from December 31, 2009 through December 31, 2028 and $115 may be carried over indefinitely.
Net deferred tax assets at December 31 were as follows:
2008 2007
Deferred tax assets $14,700 $ 9,640
Deferred tax liabilities (9,492) (8,272)
Valuation allowance (48) (20)
Net deferred tax assets $5,160 $ 1,348
We recorded net deferred tax liabilities of $73 and $11 in 2008 and 2007, which were primarily due to
acquisitions.
As required under SFAS 123R, deferred tax liabilities of $97 and $79 were reclassified to Additional
paid-in capital in 2008 and 2007. This represents the tax effect of the net excess tax pool created
during 2008 and 2007 due to share awards paid with a fair market value in excess of the book accrual
for those awards.
