This excerpt taken from the PBG 8-K filed Sep 16, 2009.
 Bottler Incentives and Other Arrangements – In order to promote PepsiCo beverages, PepsiCo, at its discretion, provides us with various forms of bottler incentives. These incentives cover a variety of initiatives, including direct marketplace support and advertising support. We record most of these incentives as an adjustment to cost of sales unless the incentive is for reimbursement of a specific, incremental and identifiable cost. Under these conditions, the incentive would be recorded as an offset against the related costs, either in net revenues or selling, delivery and administrative expenses. Changes in our bottler incentives and funding levels could materially affect our business and financial results.

Certain corrections were made to prior years’ disclosure of reported bottler incentives recognized in cost of sales. Total bottler incentives for 2006 and 2005 have been reduced by approximately $25 million and $15 million, respectively. The correction had no impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
