Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Eaton Corporation plc (Eaton or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been made that are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Eaton’s 2022 Form 10-K. The interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date this Form 10-Q was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Adoption of New Accounting Standard | Adoption of New Accounting Standard Eaton adopted Accounting Standards Update 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations, in the first quarter of 2023. The standard requires disclosure of certain information about the Company's supply chain finance program, including key terms and a rollforward of confirmed amounts payable. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
