Disclosure of operating segments [abstract]  
SEGMENT INFORMATION SEGMENT INFORMATION
The partnership’s operations are organized into four operating segments which are regularly reviewed by the CODM for the purpose of allocating resources to the segment and to assess its performance. The CODM uses adjusted earnings from operations (“Adjusted EFO”) to assess performance and make resource allocation decisions. Adjusted EFO allows the CODM to evaluate the partnership’s segments on the basis of return on invested capital generated by its operations and to evaluate the performance of its segments on a levered basis. Adjusted EFO is calculated as net income and equity accounted income at the partnership’s economic ownership interest in consolidated subsidiaries and equity accounted investments, respectively, excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization expense, deferred income taxes, transaction costs, restructuring charges, unrealized revaluation gains or losses, impairment expenses or reversals and other income or expense items that are not directly related to revenue generating activities. The partnership’s economic ownership interest in consolidated subsidiaries excludes amounts attributable to non-controlling interests consistent with how the partnership determines net income attributable to non-controlling interests in its consolidated statements of operating results. In order to provide additional insight regarding the partnership’s operating performance over the lifecycle of an investment, Adjusted EFO includes the impact of preferred equity distributions and realized disposition gains or losses recorded in net income, other comprehensive income, or directly in equity, such as ownership changes. Adjusted EFO does not include legal and other provisions that may occur from time to time in the partnership’s operations and that are one-time or non-recurring and not directly tied to the partnership’s operations, such as those for litigation or contingencies. Adjusted EFO includes expected credit losses and bad debt allowances recorded in the normal course of the partnership’s operations.
Other income (expense), net in the partnership’s consolidated statements of operating results includes amounts that are not related to revenue generating activities, and are not normal, recurring operating income and expenses necessary for business operations. These include revaluation gains and losses, transaction costs, restructuring charges, stand-up costs and business separation expenses, gains or losses on debt extinguishments or modifications, gains or losses on dispositions of property, plant and equipment, employee incentive payments linked to the realization of value at the partnership’s operations, non-recurring and one-time provisions that may occur from time to time at one of the partnership’s operations that are not reflective of normal operations, and other items. Other income (expense), net included within Adjusted EFO in the tables below corresponds to items of other income (expense), net at the partnership’s economic ownership interest that are considered by the partnership when evaluating operating performance and returns on invested capital generated by its businesses and may include realized revaluation gains and losses, realized gains or losses on the disposition of property, plant and equipment, and other items. Refer to the footnotes to the tables below for additional details on items included therein.
Gain (loss) on dispositions, net in Adjusted EFO reflects the partnership’s economic ownership interest in the gains or losses on acquisitions/dispositions recognized during the period in the consolidated statements of operating results that are considered by the partnership when evaluating the performance and returns on invested capital generated by its businesses.
Gain (loss) on dispositions, net recorded in equity in Adjusted EFO corresponds to the partnership’s economic ownership interest in gains and losses recorded in the consolidated statements of changes in equity that have been realized through a completed disposition, including material realized disposition gains or losses that may be recorded in equity on the partial disposition of a subsidiary where the partnership retains control and through the sale of an investment in securities accounted for as financial assets measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income.
The following tables provide each segment’s results at the partnership’s economic ownership interest, in the format that the CODM organizes reporting segments to make resource allocation decisions and assess performance. Amounts attributable to non-controlling interests are calculated based on the economic ownership interests held by non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries. The tables below reconcile the partnership’s economic ownership interest in its consolidated results to the partnership’s consolidated statements of operating results.
