Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.

Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.

The condensed consolidated financial statements present the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of Marriott International, Inc. (“Marriott,” and together with its subsidiaries “we,” “us,” or the “Company”). In order to make this report easier to read, we refer throughout to (i) our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as our “Financial Statements,” (ii) our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as our “Income Statements,” our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as our “Balance Sheets,” (iii) our properties, brands, or markets in the United States and Canada as “North America” or “North American,” and (iv) our properties, brands, or markets outside of the United States and Canada as “international.” These condensed consolidated financial statements have not been audited. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Although we believe our disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, you should read the financial statements in this report in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes to those financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, (“2010 Form 10-K”). Certain terms not otherwise defined in this Form 10-Q have the meanings specified in our 2010 Form 10-K. Preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods, and the disclosures of contingent liabilities. Accordingly, ultimate results could differ from those estimates. Our 2011 first quarter ended on March 25, 2011; our 2010 fourth quarter ended on December 31, 2010; and our 2010 first quarter ended on March 26, 2010. In our opinion, our financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 25, 2011, and December 31, 2010, the results of our operations for the twelve weeks ended March 25, 2011, and March 26, 2010, and cash flows for the twelve weeks ended March 25, 2011, and March 26, 2010. Interim results may not be indicative of fiscal year performance because of seasonal and short-term variations. We have eliminated all material intercompany transactions and balances between entities consolidated in these financial statements. We have also reclassified certain prior year amounts to conform to our 2011 presentation. See Footnote No. 13, “Business Segments,” for additional information on the reclassification of segment revenues, segment financial results, and segment assets to reflect movement of Hawaii to our North American segments from our International segment. Restricted Cash Restricted cash in our Balance Sheets at the end of the 2011 first quarter and year-end 2010 is recorded as $43 million and $55 million, respectively, in the “Other current assets” line and $32 million and $30 million, respectively, in the “Other long-term assets” line. Restricted cash primarily consists of cash held in a reserve account related to Timeshare segment notes receivable securitizations; cash held internationally that we have not repatriated due to statutory, tax and currency risks; and deposits received, primarily associated with timeshare interval, fractional ownership, and residential sales that are held in escrow until the contract has closed. |

| Income Taxes |
We file income tax returns, including returns for our subsidiaries, in various jurisdictions around the world. We filed an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) refund claim relating to 2000 and 2001 for certain software development costs. The IRS disallowed the claims, and in July 2009, we protested the disallowance. This issue is pending in the IRS Appeals Division. With the exception of the refund claim for 2000 and 2001, the IRS has examined our federal income tax returns, and we have settled all issues for tax years through 2009. We participated in the IRS Compliance Assurance Program (“CAP”) for the 2010 tax year, and are participating in CAP for 2011. This program accelerates the examination of key transactions with the goal of resolving any issues before the tax return is filed. Various income tax returns are also under examination by foreign, state and local taxing authorities. For the first quarter of 2011, we decreased unrecognized tax benefits by $1 million from $39 million at year-end 2010, primarily due to the expiration of the statute of limitations. The unrecognized tax benefits balance of $38 million at the end of the 2011 first quarter included $25 million of tax positions that, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate. As a large taxpayer, the IRS and other taxing authorities continually audit us. Although we do not anticipate that a significant impact to our unrecognized tax benefit balance will occur during the next 52 weeks as a result of these audits, it remains possible that the amount of our liability for unrecognized tax benefits could change over that time period. |

| Share-Based Compensation |
Under our 2002 Comprehensive Stock and Cash Incentive Plan (the “Comprehensive Plan”), we award: (1) stock options to purchase our Class A Common Stock (“Stock Option Program”); (2) stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) for our Class A Common Stock (“SAR Program”); (3) restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of our Class A Common Stock; and (4) deferred stock units. We grant awards at exercise prices or strike prices equal to the market price of our Class A Common Stock on the date of grant. We recorded share-based compensation expense related to award grants of $21 million and $20 million for the twelve weeks ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, respectively. Deferred compensation costs related to unvested awards totaled $196 million and $113 million at March 25, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. RSUs We granted 2.5 million RSUs during the first quarter of 2011 to certain officers and key employees, and those units vest generally over four years in equal annual installments commencing one year after the date of grant. RSUs granted in the first quarter of 2011 had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $40. SARs We granted 0.7 million SARs to officers and key employees during the first quarter of 2011. These SARs expire 10 years after the date of grant and both vest and are exercisable in cumulative installments of one quarter at the end of each of the first four years following the date of grant. These SARs had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $16. We use a binomial method to estimate the fair value of each SAR granted, under which we calculate the weighted average expected SARs terms as the product of a lattice-based binomial valuation model that uses suboptimal exercise factors. We use historical data to estimate exercise behaviors and terms to retirement for separate groups of retirement eligible and non-retirement eligible employees.
We used the following assumptions to determine the fair value of the Employee SARs granted during the first quarter of 2011.
In making these assumptions, we based risk-free rates on the corresponding U.S. Treasury spot rates for the expected duration at the date of grant, which we converted to a continuously compounded rate. We based expected volatility on the weighted-average historical volatility, with periods with atypical stock movement given a lower weight to reflect stabilized long-term mean volatility. Other Information At the end of the 2011 first quarter, 54 million shares were reserved under the Comprehensive Plan, including 27 million shares under the Stock Option Program and the SAR Program. |

| Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
We believe that the fair values of our current assets and current liabilities approximate their reported carrying amounts. We show the carrying values and the fair values of non-current financial assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments, determined in accordance with current guidance for disclosures on the fair value of financial instruments, in the following table.
We estimate the fair value of both our securitized long-term loans to timeshare owners and a portion of our non-securitized long-term loans to timeshare owners using a discounted cash flow model. We believe this is comparable to the model that an independent third party would use in the current market. Our model uses default rates, prepayment rates, coupon rates and loan terms for our securitized note portfolio as key drivers of risk and relative value, that when applied in combination with pricing parameters, determines the fair value of the underlying notes receivable. We value certain non-securitized loans to timeshare owners at their carrying value, rather than using our pricing model. We believe that the carrying value of such loans approximates fair value because the stated interest rates of these loans are consistent with current market rates and the reserve for these loans appropriately accounts for risks in default rates, prepayment rates, and loan terms. We estimate the fair value of our senior, mezzanine, and other loans by discounting cash flows using risk-adjusted rates. We estimate the fair value of our cost method investments by applying a cap rate to stabilized earnings (a market approach). The carrying value of our restricted cash approximates its fair value.
We estimate the fair value of our non-recourse debt associated with securitized loans to timeshare owners by obtaining indicative bids from investment banks that actively issue and facilitate the secondary market for timeshare securities. As an additional measure, we internally generate cash flow estimates by modeling all bond tranches for our active securitization transactions, with consideration for the collateral specific to each tranche. The key drivers in this analysis include default rates, prepayment rates, bond interest rates and other structural factors, which we use to estimate the projected cash flows. In order to estimate market credit spreads by rating, we reviewed market spreads from timeshare note securitizations and other asset-backed transactions that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2011. We then applied those estimated market spreads to swap rates in order to estimate an underlying discount rate for calculating the fair value of the active bonds. We concluded that the fair value of the bonds reflects a marginal premium over the book value resulting from relatively low current swap rates and credit spreads. We estimate the fair value of our other long-term debt, excluding leases, using expected future payments discounted at risk-adjusted rates, and we determine the fair value of our senior notes using quoted market prices. At the end of the 2011 first quarter the carrying value of our commercial paper approximated its fair value due to the short maturity. Other long-term liabilities represent guarantee costs and reserves and deposit liabilities. The carrying values of our guarantee costs and reserves approximate their fair values. We estimate the fair value of our deposit liabilities primarily by discounting future payments at a risk-adjusted rate. We are required to carry our marketable securities at fair value. The carrying value of our marketable securities at the end of our 2011 first quarter was $19 million, which included debt securities of the U.S. Government, its sponsored agencies and other U.S. corporations invested for our self-insurance programs. We value these securities using directly observable Level 1 inputs. We are also required to carry our derivative assets and liabilities at fair value. As of the end of our 2011 first quarter, we had derivative instruments in a long-term liability position of $1 million valued using Level 3 inputs. We value our Level 3 input derivatives using valuations that we calibrate to the initial trade prices, with subsequent valuations based on unobservable inputs to the valuation model, including interest rates and volatilities. See the “Fair Value Measurements” caption of Footnote No. 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our 2010 Form 10-K for additional information. |

At the end of the 2011 first quarter, our recorded investment in impaired “Senior, mezzanine, and other loans” was $90 million. We had a $76 million notes receivable reserve representing an allowance for credit losses, leaving $14 million of our investment in impaired loans, for which we had no related allowance for credit losses. At year-end 2010, our recorded investment in impaired “Senior, mezzanine, and other loans” was $83 million, and we had a $74 million notes receivable reserve representing an allowance for credit losses, leaving $9 million of our investment in impaired loans, for which we had no related allowance for credit losses. During the 2011 and 2010 first quarters, our average investment in impaired “Senior, mezzanine, and other loans” totaled $86 million and $139 million, respectively.
The following table summarizes the activity related to our “Senior, mezzanine, and other loans” notes receivable reserve for the 2011 first quarter:
At the end of the 2011 first quarter, past due senior, mezzanine, and other loans totaled $6 million. Loans to Timeshare Owners We reflect interest income associated with “Loans to timeshare owners” of $39 million and $45 million for the 2011 and 2010 first quarters, respectively, in our Income Statements in the “Timeshare sales and services” revenue caption. Of the $39 million of interest income we recognized from these loans in the 2011 first quarter, $32 million was associated with securitized loans and $7 million was associated with non-securitized loans, compared with the $36 million associated with securitized loans and $9 million associated with non-securitized loans recognized in the 2010 first quarter. The following table summarizes the activity related to our “Loans to timeshare owners” notes receivable reserve for the 2011 first quarter:
As of March 25, 2011 and year-end 2010, we estimated average remaining default rates of 8.61 percent and 9.25 percent, respectively, for both non-securitized and securitized timeshare notes receivable. We show our recorded investment in nonaccrual “Loans to timeshare owners” loans in the following table:

| Long-term Debt |
We provide detail on our long-term debt balances in the following table:
The non-recourse debt associated with securitized notes receivable was, and to the extent currently outstanding is, secured by the related notes receivable. All of our other long-term debt was, and to the extent currently outstanding is, recourse to us but unsecured. Other debt in the preceding table includes capital leases. We are party to a multicurrency revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) that provides for $2.404 billion of aggregate effective borrowings to support general corporate needs, including working capital, capital expenditures, and letters of credit. The availability of the Credit Facility also supports our commercial paper program. The Credit Facility expires on May 14, 2012. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus a fixed spread. We also pay quarterly fees on the Credit Facility at a rate based on our public debt rating. While any outstanding commercial paper borrowings and/or borrowings under our Credit Facility generally have short-term maturities, we classify the outstanding borrowings as long-term based on our ability and intent to refinance the outstanding borrowings on a long-term basis. See the “Cash Requirements and Our Credit Facilities” caption later in this report in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section for information on our available borrowing capacity at March 25, 2011. Each of our securitized notes receivable pools contains various triggers relating to the performance of the underlying notes receivable. If a pool of securitized notes receivable fails to perform within the pool’s established parameters (default or delinquency thresholds by deal) transaction provisions effectively redirect the monthly excess spread we typically receive from that pool (related to the interests we retained), to accelerate the principal payments to investors based on the subordination of the different tranches until the performance trigger is cured. During the first quarter of 2011, one pool that reached a performance trigger at year-end 2010 returned to compliance while one other reached a performance trigger. At the end of the first quarter of 2011, this was the only pool that was still out of compliance with applicable triggers. As a result of performance triggers, a total of $2 million in cash of excess spread was used to pay down debt during the 2011 first quarter. At March 25, 2011, we had 13 securitized notes receivable pools outstanding. We show future principal payments (net of unamortized discounts) and unamortized discounts for our securitized and non-securitized debt in the following tables: Debt Principal Payments (net of unamortized discounts)
As the contractual terms of the underlying securitized notes receivable determine the maturities of the non-recourse debt associated with them, actual maturities may occur earlier due to prepayments by the notes receivable obligors. Unamortized Debt Discounts
We paid cash for interest, net of amounts capitalized, of $24 million in the 2011 first quarter and $27 million in the 2010 first quarter. |

| Contingencies |
Guarantees We issue guarantees to certain lenders and hotel owners, primarily to obtain long-term management contracts. The guarantees generally have a stated maximum amount of funding and a term of three to ten years. The terms of guarantees to lenders generally require us to fund if cash flows from hotel operations are inadequate to cover annual debt service or to repay the loan at the end of the term. The terms of the guarantees to hotel owners generally require us to fund if the hotels do not attain specified levels of operating profit. Guarantee fundings to lenders and hotel owners are generally recoverable as loans repayable to us out of future hotel cash flows and/or proceeds from the sale of hotels. We also enter into project completion guarantees with certain lenders in conjunction with hotels and Timeshare segment properties that we or our joint venture partners are building. We show the maximum potential amount of future fundings for guarantees where we are the primary obligor and the carrying amount of the liability for expected future fundings in the following table.
We included our liability for expected future fundings at March 25, 2011, in our Balance Sheet as follows: $4 million in the “Other current liabilities” and $23 million in the “Other long-term liabilities.” Our guarantees listed in the preceding table include $35 million of operating profit guarantees that will not be in effect until the underlying properties open and we begin to operate the properties. The guarantees in the preceding table do not include the following:
In addition to the guarantees described in the preceding paragraphs, in conjunction with financing obtained for specific projects or properties owned by joint ventures in which we are a party, we may provide industry standard indemnifications to the lender for loss, liability, or damage occurring as a result of the actions of the other joint venture owner or our own actions. Commitments and Letters of Credit In addition to the guarantees noted in the preceding paragraphs, as of March 25, 2011, we had the following commitments outstanding:
At March 25, 2011, we had $79 million of letters of credit outstanding ($76 million under our Credit Facility and $3 million outside the Credit Facility), the majority of which related to our self-insurance programs. Surety bonds issued as of March 25, 2011, totaled $212 million, the majority of which federal, state and local governments requested in connection with our lodging operations, Timeshare segment operations, and self-insurance programs. |

| Business Segments |
We are a diversified hospitality company with operations in five business segments:
In 2011, we changed the management reporting structure for properties located in Hawaii. In conjunction with that change, we now report revenues and financial results for properties located in Hawaii in our North American segments rather than in our International segment. In addition, we now recognize in our Timeshare segment some base management fees we previously recognized in our International segment. For comparability, we have reclassified prior year segment revenues, segment financial results, and segment assets to reflect these changes. These reclassifications only affect our segment reporting, and do not change our total consolidated revenue, operating income, or net income or our total segment revenues or total segment financial results. We evaluate the performance of our segments based primarily on the results of the segment without allocating corporate expenses, income taxes, or indirect general, administrative, and other expenses. With the exception of our Timeshare segment, we do not allocate interest income or interest expense to our segments. We include interest income and interest expense associated with our Timeshare segment notes in our Timeshare segment results because financing sales and securitization transactions are an integral part of that segment’s business. In addition, we allocate other gains and losses, equity in earnings or losses from our joint ventures, divisional general, administrative, and other expenses, and income or losses attributable to noncontrolling interests to each of our segments. “Other unallocated corporate” represents that portion of our revenues, general, administrative, and other expenses, equity in earnings or losses, and other gains or losses that we do not allocate to our segments. We aggregate the brands presented within our North American Full-Service, North American Limited-Service, International, Luxury, and Timeshare segments considering their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, distribution channels, the regulatory business environment of the brands and operations within each segment and our organizational and management reporting structure.

We estimate that, for the 20-year period from 2011 through 2030, the cash outflow associated with completing all phases of our existing portfolio of owned timeshare properties will be approximately $2.2 billion. This estimate is based on our current development plans, which remain subject to change. |

In the first quarter of 2011, we contributed approximately $51 million (€37 million) in cash for the intellectual property and associated 50 percent interests in two new joint ventures formed for the operation, management and development of AC Hotels by Marriott, initially in Europe but eventually in other parts of the world. The hotels will be managed by the joint ventures or franchised at the direction of the joint ventures. As noted in Footnote No. 12, “Contingencies,” we have a right and, in some circumstances, an obligation to acquire the remaining interest in the joint ventures over the next ten years. In the first quarter of 2011, we acquired certain assets and a leasehold on a hotel for an initial payment of $34 million (€25 million) in cash plus fixed annual rent. See Footnote No. 17, “Leases,” for additional information. As noted in Footnote No. 12, “Contingencies,” we also have a right and, in some circumstances, an obligation to acquire the landlord’s interest in the real estate property and attached assets of this hotel for $62 million (€45 million) during the next three years. |

| Variable Interest Entities |
In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the consolidation of variable interest entities, we analyze our variable interests, including loans, guarantees, and equity investments, to determine if an entity in which we have a variable interest is a variable interest entity. Our analysis includes both quantitative and qualitative reviews. We base our quantitative analysis on the forecasted cash flows of the entity, and our qualitative analysis on our review of the design of the entity, its organizational structure including decision-making ability, and relevant financial agreements. We also use our qualitative analyses to determine if we must consolidate a variable interest entity as its primary beneficiary. Variable interest entities related to our timeshare note securitizations We periodically securitize, without recourse, through special purpose entities, notes receivable originated by our Timeshare segment in connection with the sale of timeshare interval and fractional products. These securitizations provide funding for us and transfer the economic risks and substantially all the benefits of the loans to third parties. In a securitization, various classes of debt securities that the special purpose entities issue are generally collateralized by a single tranche of transferred assets, which consist of timeshare notes receivable. We service the notes receivable. With each securitization, we may retain a portion of the securities, subordinated tranches, interest-only strips, subordinated interests in accrued interest and fees on the securitized receivables or, in some cases, overcollateralization and cash reserve accounts. Under GAAP as it existed prior to 2010, those entities met the definition of QSPEs, and we were not required to evaluate them for consolidation. We began evaluating those entities for consolidation when we implemented the new Transfers of Financial Assets and Consolidation standards in the 2010 first quarter. We created those entities to serve as a mechanism for holding assets and related liabilities, and the entities have no equity investment at risk, making them variable interest entities. We continue to service the notes, transfer all proceeds collected to those special purpose entities, and retain rights to receive potentially significant benefits. Accordingly, we concluded under the new Transfers of Financial Assets and Consolidation standards that we are the entities’ primary beneficiary and, therefore, consolidate them. At March 25, 2011, consolidated assets on our Balance Sheet included collateral for the obligations of those variable interest entities with a carrying amount of $1,011 million, comprised of $115 million of current notes receivable and $849 million of long-term notes receivable (each net of reserves), $6 million of interest receivable and $27 million and $14 million, respectively, of current and long-term restricted cash. Further, at March 25, 2011, consolidated liabilities on our Balance Sheet included liabilities for those variable interest entities with a carrying amount of $946 million, comprised of $2 million of interest payable, $125 million of current portion of long-term debt, and $819 million of long-term debt. The noncontrolling interest balance for those entities was zero. The creditors of those entities do not have general recourse to us. As a result of our involvement with these entities, we recognized $32 million of interest income, offset by $12 million of interest expense to investors.
We show our cash flows to and from the timeshare notes securitization variable interest entities in the following table:
Under the terms of our timeshare note securitizations, we have the right at our option to repurchase defaulted mortgage notes at the outstanding principal balance. The transaction documents typically limit such repurchases to 10 to 15 percent of the transaction’s initial mortgage balance. We made voluntary repurchases of defaulted notes of $12 million during the first quarter of 2011 and $17 million during the first quarter of 2010. Our maximum exposure to loss relating to the entities that own these notes is the overcollateralization amount (the difference between the loan collateral balance and the balance on the outstanding notes), plus cash reserves and any residual interest in future cash flows from collateral. Other variable interest entities We have an equity investment in and a loan receivable due from a variable interest entity that develops and markets fractional ownership and residential interests. We concluded that the entity is a variable interest entity because the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional support from other parties. We have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary as power to direct the activities that most significantly impact economic performance of the entity is shared among the variable interest holders, and therefore do not consolidate the entity. In 2009, we fully impaired our equity investment and certain loans receivable due from the entity. In 2010, the continued application of equity losses to our outstanding loan receivable balance reduced its carrying value to zero. We may fund up to an additional $16 million and do not expect to recover this amount, which we have accrued and included in current liabilities. We do not have any remaining exposure to loss related to this entity. In conjunction with the transaction with CTF described more fully in Footnote No. 8, “Acquisitions and Dispositions,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2007, under the caption “2005 Acquisitions,” we manage hotels on behalf of tenant entities 100 percent owned by CTF, which lease the hotels from third-party owners. Due to certain provisions in the management agreements, we account for these contracts as operating leases. At March 25, 2011, we managed ten hotels on behalf of three tenant entities. The entities have minimal equity and minimal assets comprised of hotel working capital and furniture, fixtures, and equipment. In conjunction with the 2005 transaction, CTF had placed money in a trust account to cover cash flow shortfalls and to meet rent payments. In turn, we released CTF from its guarantees fully in connection with seven of these properties and partially in connection with the other three properties. At March 25, 2011, the trust account has been fully depleted. The tenant entities are variable interest entities because the holder of the equity investment at risk, CTF, lacks the ability through voting rights to make key decisions about the entities’ activities that have a significant effect on the success of the entities. We do not consolidate the entities because we do not bear the majority of the expected losses. We are liable for rent payments for seven of the ten hotels if there are cash flow shortfalls. Future minimum lease payments through the end of the lease term for these hotels totaled approximately $36 million. In addition, we are liable for rent payments of up to an aggregate cap of $15 million for the three other hotels if there are cash flow shortfalls. Our maximum exposure to loss is limited to the rent payments and certain other tenant obligations under the lease, for which we are secondarily liable. |

| Planned Spin-off |
On February 14, 2011, we announced a plan to separate the company’s businesses into two separate, publicly traded companies. Under the plan, we expect to spin-off our timeshare operations and timeshare development business as a new independent company through a special tax-free dividend to our shareholders in late 2011. The new company will focus on the timeshare business as the exclusive developer and operator of timeshare, fractional, and related products under the Marriott brand and the exclusive developer of fractional and related products under The Ritz-Carlton brand. In the separation, we will retain the lodging management and franchise businesses. We expect to receive franchise fees totaling approximately two percent of developer contract sales plus $50 million annually for the new timeshare company’s use of the Marriott timeshare and Ritz-Carlton fractional brands. The franchise fee is also expected to include a periodic inflation adjustment. We anticipate that the new timeshare company will file a Form 10 registration statement with the SEC in the second quarter 2011. We expect that the common stock of the new timeshare company will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. We do not expect that the new timeshare company will pay a quarterly cash dividend or be investment grade in the near term. The transaction is subject to final approval of our Board, the receipt of normal and customary regulatory approvals and third-party consents, the execution of inter-company agreements, receipt of a favorable ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, arrangement of adequate financing facilities, final approval by our board of directors, and other related matters. The transaction will not require shareholder approval and will have no impact on Marriott’s contractual obligations to the existing securitizations. While we expect that the spin-off will be completed before year-end 2011, we cannot assure you that it will be completed on the anticipated schedule or that its terms will not change. See “Part II, Item 1A – Risk Factors” for certain risk factors relating to the Planned Spin-off Risks. Because of the anticipated continuing involvement between the companies, we do not expect the spin-off of the timeshare operations and timeshare development business to qualify under GAAP for discontinued operations presentation in our financial statements. |

Restricted cash primarily consists of cash held in a reserve account related to Timeshare segment notes receivable securitizations; cash held internationally that we have not repatriated due to statutory, tax and currency risks; and deposits received, primarily associated with timeshare interval, fractional ownership, and residential sales that are held in escrow until the contract has closed. |
| Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 - Provisions Effective in the 2011 First Quarter ("ASU No. 2010-06") | Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 – Provisions Effective in the 2011 First Quarter (“ASU No. 2010-06”) Certain provisions of ASU No. 2010-06 became effective during our 2011 first quarter. Those provisions, which amended Subtopic 820-10, require us to present as separate line items all purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements of financial instruments valued using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in the reconciliation of fair value measurements, in contrast to the current aggregate presentation as a single line item. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements or disclosures. |
| Cost Method Investments, Valuation Policy | We estimate the fair value of our cost method investments by
applying a cap rate to stabilized earnings (a market
approach). |
| Earnings Per Share, Dilutive Securities Policy |
We compute the effect of dilutive securities using the treasury
stock method and average market prices during the period. We
determine dilution based on earnings.
|
| Inventory Valuation Policy |
We primarily record Timeshare segment interval, fractional
ownership, and residential products at the lower of cost or fair
market value, in accordance with applicable accounting guidance,
and we generally value operating supplies at the lower of cost
(using the first-in, first-out method) or market. Consistent with
recognized industry practice, we classify Timeshare segment
interval, fractional ownership, and residential products inventory,
which has an operating cycle that exceeds 12 months, as a current
asset.

The original cost of the investments may differ from the aggregate carrying amount disclosed due to various adjustments such as: (i) dividends received in excess of earnings after the date of investment that are considered a return of investment and therefore recorded as reductions to cost of the investment, or (ii) a series of operating losses of an investee or other factors which may indicate that a decrease in value of the investment has occurred which is other than temporary and should accordingly be recognized.
