Minimum Volume Commitments. We have certain agreements that require counterparties to transport or throughput a minimum volume over an agreed upon period. The following table presents counterparty deficiencies associated with contracts with customers and buy/sell arrangements that include minimum volume commitments for which we had remaining performance obligations and the customers still had the ability to meet their obligations (in millions):

Remaining Performance Obligations. The information below includes the amount of consideration allocated to partially and wholly unsatisfied remaining performance obligations under contracts that existed as of the end of the periods and the timing of revenue recognition of those remaining performance obligations. Certain contracts meet the requirements for the presentation as remaining performance obligations. These contracts include a fixed minimum level of service, typically a set volume of service, and do not contain any variability other than expected timing within a limited range. The following table presents the amount of consideration associated with remaining performance obligations for the population of contracts with external customers meeting the presentation requirements as of March 31, 2024 (in millions):

Remainder of 202420252026202720282029 and Thereafter

Total$481$523$295$227$180$902

(1)Calculated as volumes committed under contracts multiplied by the current applicable tariff rate.

The presentation above does not include (i) expected revenues from legacy shippers not underpinned by minimum volume commitments, including pipelines where there are no or limited alternative pipeline transportation options, (ii) intersegment revenues and (iii) the amount of consideration associated with certain income generating contracts, which include a fixed minimum level of service, that are either not within the scope of ASC 606 or do not meet the requirements for presentation as remaining performance obligations. The following are examples of contracts that are not included in the table above because they are not within the scope of ASC 606 or do not meet the requirements for presentation:

Minimum volume commitments on certain of our joint venture pipeline systems;

Acreage dedications;

Buy/sell arrangements with future committed volumes;

Short-term contracts and those with variable consideration, due to the election of practical expedients;

Contracts within the scope of ASC Topic 842, Leases; and

Contracts within the scope of ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.

Trade Accounts Receivable and Other Receivables, Net

At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, substantially all of our trade accounts receivable were less than 30 days past their invoice date. Our expected credit losses are immaterial. Although we consider our credit procedures to be adequate to mitigate any significant credit losses, the actual amount of current and future credit losses could vary significantly from estimated amounts.

The following is a reconciliation of trade accounts receivable from revenues from contracts with customers to total Trade accounts receivable and other receivables, net as presented on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):

March 31,2024December 31,2023
Trade accounts receivable arising from revenues from contracts with customers$4,347$3,999
Other trade accounts receivables and other receivables (1)8,2847,535
Impact due to contractual rights of offset with counterparties(8,591)(7,774)
Trade accounts receivable and other receivables, net$4,040$3,760

(1)The balance is comprised primarily of accounts receivable associated with buy/sell arrangements that are not within the scope of ASC 606.
