Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	McDonald’s Corporation, the registrant, together with its subsidiaries, is referred to herein as the "Company." The Company, its franchisees and suppliers, are referred to herein as the "System." Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s December 31, 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2024 do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for the full year. Change in Presentation In the first quarter of 2024, the Company changed its rounding presentation to the nearest whole number in millions of reported amounts, except per share data or as otherwise designated. The change in rounding presentation has been applied to all prior year amounts presented. In certain circumstances, this change adjusted previously reported balances, however, these changes were not significant, and no other changes were made to previously reported financial information. Additionally, certain columns and rows within the financial statements and tables presented may not add due to rounding. Percentages have been calculated from the underlying whole-dollar amounts for all periods presented.
