Unallocated Corporate Expenses. Total unallocated corporate expenses include corporate items such as a portion of management and administration, legal, environmental, compensation, retiree benefits, other corporate expenses and eliminations and the FAS/Cost Accounting Standards (“CAS”) operating adjustment. Total unallocated corporate expenses also include the portion of corporate costs not included in management’s evaluation of segment operating performance, such as amortization of acquisition-related intangibles; additional cost of revenue related to the fair value step-up in inventory sold; merger, acquisition, and divestiture-related expenses; asset group and business divestiture-related (losses) gains, net and any related impairment of goodwill; impairment of other assets; LHX NeXt implementation costs; and other items.
FAS/CAS Operating Adjustment. In accordance with CAS, we allocate a portion of pension and OPEB plan costs to our U.S. Government contracts. However, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements require pension and OPEB plan income or expense to be calculated in accordance with FAS requirements under GAAP. The “FAS/CAS operating adjustment” line item in the table below represents the difference between the service cost component of net periodic benefit income under our pension and OPEB plans and total CAS pension and OPEB cost.
The table below is a reconciliation of the FAS/CAS operating adjustment:

Disaggregation of Revenue
We disaggregate revenue for all four business segments by customer relationship, contract type and geographical region. We believe these categories best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
