Corporate intersegment net sales represent intersegment net sales eliminations. Corporate unallocated costs include the costs of corporate staff functions not directly associated with the operating segments, certain legal and insurance costs and stock-based compensation expense.
(2)
Legacy items include current costs related to former operations of the Company, including certain environmental remediation, pension and other postretirement benefit costs, legal costs and certain charges which are considered to be non-recurring. The Legacy items for 2014, 2013, and 2012 include environmental remediation pre-tax charges of $138 million, $101 million, and $159 million, respectively. These charges relate to continued environmental remediation activities at legacy chemicals sites, primarily at PPG's former Jersey City, N.J. chromium manufacturing plant and associated sites (See Note 13). In 2014, Legacy items includes the gains from an equity affiliates sale of a business line and the sale of a flat glass plant(See Note 2). Legacy items also include equity earnings from PPG’s approximate 40% investment in the former automotive glass and services business.
(3)
Segment assets are the total assets used in the operation of each segment. Corporate assets are principally cash and cash equivalents, cash held in escrow, short term investments, deferred tax assets and the approximate 40% investment in the former automotive glass and services business. Non-segment items also includes the assets of businesses which have been reclassified as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Income. (See Note 2).
(4)
Net sales to external customers are attributed to geographic regions based upon the location of the operating unit shipping the product.
(5)
Transaction-related costs include advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees incurred to effect significant acquisitions, as well as similar fees and other costs to effect disposals not classified as discontinued operations. These costs also includes the flow-through cost of sales of the step up to fair value of inventory acquired in acquisitions.
