Our financial statements and all amounts referenced in this section include results based on Brazilian Corporate Law. This differs from amounts reported by us in prior years. Brazilian Corporate Law is considered to be a comprehensive basis of GAAP and it is used as the primary basis of reporting in Brazil. The only material difference between Brazilian Corporate Law and the financial statements used in our previous annual reports is that Brazilian Corporate Law does not allow for price-level accounting for periods after December 31, 1995. It also prohibits discounting of fixed rate monetary assets and liabilities, while the "constant currency method" continues to require price-level accounting and requires discounting if the effect is material. Brazilian Corporate Law and "constant currency method" are the same in all other material respects. A complete reconciliation of Brazilian Corporate Law to "constant currency method" financial statements is included in our consolidated financial statements.
