Examples include service revenues earned but not yet billed, allowances for uncollectible accounts and sales returns, guarantee liabilities, tax liabilities, deferred income taxes, including valuation allowances, useful lives of long-lived assets, reasonably assured renewal terms for operating leases, stock-based compensation forfeiture rates, and fair value measurements related to goodwill, spectrum licenses, intangible assets, and derivatives. Estimates are based on historical experience, where applicable, and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates are inherently subject to judgment and actual results could differ from those estimates.</font></div></div>
