Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
We operate in, and report financial information for, the following five business segments: Textron Aviation, Bell, Textron Systems, Industrial and Finance. Segment profit is an important measure used for evaluating performance and for decision-making purposes. Segment profit for the manufacturing segments excludes interest expense, certain corporate expenses, gains/losses on major business dispositions, special charges and an inventory charge related to the restructuring plan initiated in the second quarter of 2020, as discussed in Note 14. The measurement for the Finance segment includes interest income and expense along with intercompany interest income and expense.
Our revenues by segment, along with a reconciliation of Segment profit to Income before income taxes, are included in the table below:

* In connection with the restructuring plan initiated in the second quarter of 2020, we ceased manufacturing at the Montreal facility of the TRU Simulation + Training business, resulting in the production suspension of our commercial air transport simulators. As a result of this action and current market conditions, we recorded a $55 million charge to write-down the related inventory to its net realizable value.
