Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Derivative Financial Instruments [Text Block] | Financial Instruments We enter into derivative instruments primarily for risk management purposes, including derivatives designated as hedging instruments under the Derivatives and Hedging Topic of the FASB ASC and those utilized as economic hedges. We operate internationally and, in the normal course of business, are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. These fluctuations can increase the costs of financing, investing and operating the business. We have used derivative instruments, including swaps, forward contracts and options, to manage certain foreign currency, interest rate and commodity price exposures. The four quarter rolling average of the notional amount of foreign exchange contracts hedging foreign currency transactions was $18.5 billion and $20.1 billion at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The following table summarizes the fair value and presentation in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for derivative instruments as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

The effect of cash flow hedging relationships on Accumulated other comprehensive income and on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 are presented in the table below. The amounts of gain or (loss) are attributable to foreign exchange contract activity and are recorded as a component of Product sales when reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income.
| Quarter Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
(dollars in millions) | 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2018
Gain (loss) recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss | $ | (153 | ) |  | $ | 95 |  |  | $ | (125 | ) |  | $ | (105 | )
Loss (gain) reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss into Product sales | 20 |  |  | 2 |  |  | 40 |  |  | (26 | )
The Company utilizes the critical terms match method in assessing derivatives for hedge effectiveness. Accordingly, the hedged items and derivatives designated as hedging instruments are highly effective. We have €4.95 billion of euro-denominated long-term debt and €750 million of euro-denominated commercial paper borrowings outstanding, which qualify as a net investment hedge against our investments in European businesses. As of September 30, 2019, the net investment hedge is deemed to be effective. Assuming current market conditions continue, a $57 million pre-tax loss is expected to be reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss into Product sales to reflect the fixed prices obtained from foreign exchange hedging within the next 12 months. At September 30, 2019, all derivative contracts accounted for as cash flow hedges will mature by October 2023. The effect of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments within Other income, net, on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations was as follows:
| Quarter Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
(dollars in millions) | 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2018
Foreign exchange contracts | $ | 4 |  |  | $ | 16 |  |  | $ | 40 |  |  | $ | 86 |
