Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]  
UNIT-BASED COMPENSATION UNIT-BASED COMPENSATION
In connection with the Privatization, the partnership settled the BPY Unit Option Plan for cash and replaced certain other unit-based compensation plans with new plans for BAM shares. The cash payment and the incremental fair value granted under the new plans are accounted for as part of the consideration for Privatization, which resulted in $7 million of expense.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the partnership incurred $28 million (2020 - $27 million; 2019 - $25 million) of expense in connection with its unit-based compensation plans.
 
a)BPY Unit Option Plan
There were no BPY Awards granted during the year ended December 31, 2021. In connection with the Privatization, the awards provided for under the BPY Unit Option Plan, whether vested or unvested, were exchanged for a cash payment equal to the in-the-money value in accordance with their terms. The cash payment for the cancellation of these awards did not have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements of the partnership.

b)Restricted BPY LP Unit Plan
In connection with the Privatization, the unvested awards provided for under the Restricted BPY LP Unit Plan were transferred to BAM in exchange for BAM shares at a ratio of 0.4006 BAM share for each BPY Unit. Such new awards are subject to the same terms and conditions as the previous awards. The vested awards received the same consideration for their LP Units as the other unitholders.
 
As of December 31, 2021, the total number of Restricted Units outstanding was nil (December 31, 2020 - 523,573 with a weighted average exercise price of $19.87).
