Derivative Instruments [Abstract]

Derivatives, Hedge Discontinuances

In limited cases due to unexpected changes in forecasted transactions, cash flow hedges may have ceased to meet the criteria to be designated as cash flow hedges. Depending on the type of exposure hedged, either a derivative contract in the opposite position of the undesignated hedge may have been purchased or the hedge may have been retained until it matured if the hedge had continued to provide an adequate offset in earnings against the currency revaluation impact of foreign currency denominated liabilities.

Derivatives, Reporting of Derivative Activity

the fair value of outstanding derivative instruments was recognized on the balance sheet as a derivative asset or liability. When derivatives were settled with the counterparty, the derivative asset or liability was relieved and cash flow was impacted for the net settlement. For derivative instruments that met the criteria of hedging instruments under FASB guidance, the effective portions of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument were initially recorded net of related tax effect in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), a component of Share Owners' Equity, and were subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period or periods during which the hedged transaction was recognized in earnings. The gain or loss associated with derivative instruments that were not designated as hedging instruments or that ceased to meet the criteria for hedging under FASB guidance was recognized in earnings.
