The one-time items included in other operating expenses are explained in more detail under Note [29].

Allowances for receivables and the release of allowances for receivables included both trade accounts receivable as well as other receivables disclosed in the balance sheet under “other current assets” insofar as the expenses were not reported under one-time items.

Other operating expenses included, among other things, special environmental protection costs and non-allocatable personnel expenses. The breakdown of other operating expenses and income by division is presented in the Segment Reporting (see Note [53]).
