These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses we report. Such estimates include the value of goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, accounts receivable, investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, retirement and other post-employment benefits, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best judgment, and are evaluated on an ongoing basis and adjusted, as needed, using historical experience and other factors, including consideration of the macroeconomic environment. As future events and their effects cannot be forecast with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.</p>

For income statement recognition purposes, leases will be classified as either a finance or operating lease in a manner similar to the requirements under the previous lease accounting literature, but without relying upon the bright-line tests. The amendments in ASU 2018-01 specify how land easements are within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842 and permit a practical expedient to not assess whether expired or existing land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases are leases under ASC 842. The amendments in ASU 2018-10 affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in the amendments in ASU 2016-02. The amendments in ASU 2018-11 provide an optional method for adopting the new leasing guidance and provide lessors with a practical expedient to combine lease and associated non-lease components by class of underlying asset in contracts that meet certain criteria. The amendments in ASU 2018-20 provide an accounting policy election permitting lessors to treat certain sales and other similar taxes incurred as lessee costs, guidance on the treatment of certain lessor costs and guidance on recognizing variable payments for contracts with a lease and non-lease component. The amendments in ASU 2019-01 affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in the amendments in ASU 2016-02. These ASUs are effective for annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018.</p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:5.24%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">We adopted these ASUs in the first quarter of 2019 by using the optional transitional method associated with <span style="color:#000000;">no adjustment to comparative period financial statements presented for prior periods</span>. We elected certain practical expedients, including the package of transition practical expedients and the practical expedient to forego separating lease and non-lease components in our lessee contracts. We also made an accounting policy election to exempt short-term leases of 12 months or less from balance sheet recognition requirements associated with the new standard; fixed rental payments for short-term leases will be recognized as a straight-line expense over the lease term.</p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:5.24%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">As a result of the adoption of the leasing guidance, the consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 reflected $1.2 billion of additional lease liabilities, along with corresponding right-of-use assets of $1.0 billion, reflecting adjustments for items such as prepaid and deferred rent, unamortized initial direct costs, and unamortized </p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">lease incentive balances.

The present value of lease payments, which are either fixed payments, in-substance fixed payments, or variable payments tied to an index or rate are recognized on the balance sheet with corresponding lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon the commencement of the lease. These lease costs are expensed over the respective lease term in accordance with the classification of the lease (i.e. operating versus finance classification). Variable lease payments not tied to an index or rate are expensed as incurred and not subject to capitalization<span style="color:#000000;">.</span></p> <p style="margin-top:18pt;text-align:justify;margin-bottom:0pt;margin-left:5.24%;text-indent:0%;;font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">Recent Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption</p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:6pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:5.24%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">The FASB issued four ASUs related to financial instruments – credit losses. The ASUs issued were: (1) in June 2016, ASU 2016-13, <span style="font-style:italic;">“Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”</span>, (2) in November 2018, ASU 2018-19 <span style="font-style:italic;">“Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses”</span>, (3) in May 2019, ASU 2019-05, “<span style="font-style:italic;">Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief”</span> and (4) in November 2019, ASU 2019-11, <span style="font-style:italic;">“Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses.” </span>ASU 2016-13 is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. Additionally, ASU 2019-04, discussed further below, also includes amendments to ASU 2016-13. ASU 2018-19 clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the leasing standard. ASU 2019-05 provide entities that have certain instruments within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, <span style="font-style:italic;">Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized Cost</span>, with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825-10, <span style="font-style:italic;">Financial Instruments—Overall</span>. ASU 2019-11 clarifies guidance around how to report expected recoveries and reinforces existing guidance that prohibits organizations from recording negative allowances for available-for-sale debt securities, among other narrow scope and technical improvements. These ASUs are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. We have completed our evaluation of ASU 2016-13, ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-11 and concluded they will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.</p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:5.24%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018‑14, <span style="font-style:italic;">“Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.”</span> This ASU makes minor changes to the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. This ASU is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. As ASU 2018-14 only revises disclosure requirements, it will not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements. We are evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018‑14 will have on our disclosures, but do not expect it to have a material impact.</p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:5.24%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018‑18, <span style="font-style:italic;">“Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction Between Topic 808 and Topic 606.”</span> This ASU provides guidance on how to assess whether certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for within the revenue recognition standard and provides more comparability in the presentation of revenue for certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. We have completed our evaluation of ASU 2018‑18 and concluded it will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.</p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:5.24%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019‑04, <span style="font-style:italic;">“Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments.”</span> The amendments in ASU 2019-04 clarify and improve areas of guidance related to the recently issued standards on financial instruments – credit losses, derivatives and hedging, and financial instruments. The amendments in this ASU that are related to financial instruments – credit losses are effective at the same time as the effective date of ASU 2016-13. We elected to early adopt the amendments in this ASU that are related to derivatives and hedging and financial instruments in the second quarter of 2019 and the adoption of these amendments did not have any impact </p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">We </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">have completed our evaluation of </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">the amendments in this ASU that are related to </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">financial instruments – credit losses</span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;"> and concluded they</span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;"> will </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">not </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">have </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">a material impact </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.</span></p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:5.24%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019‑12, <span style="font-style:italic;">“Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.”</span> This ASU removes specific exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and improves and simplifies financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2019‑12 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, but do not expect it to have a material impact.</p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:5.24%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020‑01, <span style="font-style:italic;">“Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815.”</span> This ASU, among other things, clarifies that a company should consider observable transactions that require a company to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting under Topic 323 and clarifies that, when determining the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options a company should not consider, whether upon settlement or exercise, if the underlying securities would be accounted for under the equity method or fair value option. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2020‑01 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.</p>
