Paragraphs:
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in millions):
As of April 26, 2019, we had $296 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits, of which $252 million has been recorded in other long-term liabilities. Unrecognized tax benefits of $246 million, including penalties, interest and indirect benefits, would affect our provision for income taxes if recognized. As a result of U.S. tax reform, we recorded provisional gross unrecognized tax benefits of $114 million during fiscal 2018.
We recognized a benefit for adjustments to accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax provision of approximately $4 million in fiscal 2019 and expense of $5 million in each of fiscal 2018 and 2017. Accrued interest and penalties of $18 million and $22 million were recorded in the consolidated balance sheets as of April 26, 2019 and April 27, 2018, respectively.
