Guarantor Non-guarantor Subsidiary Financial Information [Abstract]  
Guarantor/Non-guarantor Subsidiary Financial Information
Guarantor/Non-guarantor Subsidiary Financial Information
The following information contains the condensed consolidating financial statements for the Company, the parent on a stand-alone basis (QVC, Inc.), the combined subsidiary guarantors (Affiliate Relations Holdings, Inc.; Affiliate Investment, Inc.; AMI 2, Inc.; ER Marks, Inc.; QVC International Ltd; QVC Rocky Mount, Inc.; and QVC San Antonio, LLC) and the combined non-guarantor subsidiaries pursuant to Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X. Certain non-guarantor subsidiaries are majority-owned by QVC International Ltd, which is a guarantor subsidiary.
These condensed consolidating financial statements have been prepared from the Company's financial information on the same basis of accounting as the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The principal elimination entries relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions, such as management fees, royalty revenue and expense, interest income and expense and gains on intercompany asset transfers. In the fourth quarter of 2014 the Company revised the presentation of intercompany management expense (income) and prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. Goodwill and other intangible assets have been allocated to the subsidiaries based on management’s estimates. Certain costs have been partially allocated to all of the subsidiaries of the Company.
During the three months ended June 30, 2014, an intangible asset held by certain non-guarantor subsidiaries was sold to QVC, Inc. resulting in a gain of $20 million reflected in intercompany interest and other income for the non-guarantor subsidiaries and also included in equity in earnings of subsidiaries for the subsidiary guarantors. The gain is eliminated in the eliminations column. The impact of these earnings has been eliminated in the presentation of intangible assets and equity in earnings of subsidiaries of the parent company.
The subsidiary guarantors are 100% owned by the Company. All guarantees are full and unconditional and are joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the Company to obtain funds from its U.S. subsidiaries, including the guarantors, by dividend or loan. The Company has not presented separate notes and other disclosures concerning the subsidiary guarantors as the Company has determined that such material information is available in the notes to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
