Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Estimated Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
The following table provides information about assets and liabilities not carried at fair value. The table excludes finance leases, equity investments without readily determinable fair value and non-financial assets and liabilities. Substantially all of the assets discussed below are considered to be Level 3. The vast majority of our liabilities’ fair value can be determined based on significant observable inputs and thus considered Level 2. Few of the instruments are actively traded and their fair values must often be determined using financial models. Realization of the fair value of these instruments depends upon market forces beyond our control, including marketplace liquidity.

Fair Value of Derivative Assets
The table below provides additional information about how derivatives are reflected in our financial statements. Derivative assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value exclusive of interest earned or owed on interest rate derivatives, which is presented separately on our Statement of Financial Position. Cash collateral and securities held as collateral represent assets that have been provided by our derivative counterparties as security for amounts they owe us (derivatives that are in an asset position).

The amounts in the table above generally do not include associated derivative accruals in income or expense.

(a)
For cash flow and fair value hedges, the effect on earnings is primarily related to ineffectiveness. For net investment hedges, the effect on earnings is related to ineffectiveness and spot-forward differences.
(b)
Both non-derivatives and derivatives hedging instruments are included. The carrying value of non-derivative instruments designated as net investment hedges was $(20,750) million and $(24,232) million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Total pre-tax reclassifications from CTA to gain (loss) was zero and $59 million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Total pre-tax reclassifications from CTA to gain (loss) included zero and $59 million recorded in discontinued operations at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
(c)
Net effect is substantially offset by the change in fair value of the hedged item that will affect earnings in future periods.
