The Company decreased accumulated depreciation and facilities and equipment within total property, plant and equipment by approximately $1 billion, respectively, to adjust amounts previously presented as of December 31, 2015. This adjustment had no impact on net assets at December 31, 2015. Accordingly, the Company does not consider the adjustment to be material to the consolidated balance sheet. Consolidated operating income and net income for the year ended December 31, 2016 were not impacted by the adjustment.
The Company recorded long-lived asset impairments during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, as further described in Note 10, Asset Impairments.
