In addition, the reversal of accrued penalties and interest would also benefit the effective tax rate. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefit liabilities are recorded within income tax expense. During the years ended January&nbsp;29, 2011 and January&nbsp;30, 2010, we recorded a net benefit from the reversal of accrued penalties and interest of approximately $28&nbsp;million and $10&nbsp;million, respectively. During the year ended January&nbsp;31, 2009, we recorded a net expense for accrued penalties and interest of approximately $33&nbsp;million. We had accrued for the payment of interest and penalties of approximately $95&nbsp;million at January&nbsp;29, 2011 and $127&nbsp;million at January&nbsp;30, 2010.</font></p> <p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><font size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The January&nbsp;30, 2010 liability for uncertain tax positions included $133&nbsp;million for tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility was highly certain, but for which there was uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. During 2010, we filed a tax accounting method change that resolved the uncertainty surrounding the timing of deductions for these tax positions, resulting in a $133&nbsp;million decrease to our unrecognized tax benefit liability and no impact on income tax expense in 2010. </font></p> <p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><font size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, we resolved various state income tax matters in 2010, resulting in a reduction of approximately $80&nbsp;million to our unrecognized tax benefit liability, which also reduced tax expense in 2010. It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized tax benefit liabilities with respect to our other unrecognized tax positions will increase or decrease during the next twelve months; however an estimate of the amount or range of the change cannot be made at this time.</font></p> <p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><font size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During 2009, we filed income tax returns that included tax accounting method changes allowed under applicable tax regulations. These changes resulted in a substantial increase in tax deductions related to property and equipment, resulting in an increase in noncurrent deferred income tax liabilities of approximately $300&nbsp;million and a corresponding increase in current income taxes receivable, which is classified as other current assets in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. These changes did not affect income tax expense for 2009. </font></p></td></tr></table> 22.
