Accounting Comments
Accounting for Reworkable Service Parts
1. We have considered the information provided in your response. While we believe your previous accounting method is not an acceptable method under GAAP, no change would be required if the application of that method does not produce materially different results from the inventory accounting method. The quantified impact of the change on your historically reported operating cash flows raises concern as to whether the effect of changing to the inventory accounting method is indeed immaterial. However, considering the insignificant impact on your re ported cash flow trends and your previous
disclosure of the expenditures for the reworkable service parts, we will not object to your conclusion that the impact of the change is immaterial. In your next interim and annual
Mr. William Nuti
NCR Corp. October 26, 2006
reports filed with the Commission, please include footnote disclosure stating that the reason you are treating the change in method of accounting for reworkable service parts as a change in accounting principle under SFAS 154 is because the impact of the change is not material.
As appropriate, please amend your filing and respond to these comments within 10
business days or tell us when you will provide us with a response. Please submit all correspondence and supplemental materials on EDGAR as required by Rule 101 of Regulation S-T. You may wish to provide us with marked copies of any amendment to expedite our review. Please furnish a cover letter with any amendment that keys your responses to our comments and provides any requested information. Detailed cover letters greatly facilitate our review. Please understand that we may have additional comments after reviewing any amendment and your responses to our comments.
You may contact Marc Thomas, Senior Staff Accountant at (202) 551-3452 or me at
(202) 551-3226 if you have questions regarding comments on the financial statements and related matters.
Sincerely,
Craig Wilson
Senior Assistant Chief Accountant
