Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Derivatives and Hedging Activity |
14. | Derivatives and Hedging Activity
We are exposed to market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To manage the risk related to these exposures, we enter into various derivative instruments that reduce these risks by creating offsetting exposures. We generally do not enter into derivative transactions for trading or speculative purposes. Foreign Exchange Risk Management We are exposed to foreign exchange risk when it earns revenues, pays expenses, or enters into monetary intercompany transfers denominated in a currency that differs from its functional currency, or other transactions that are denominated in a currency other than its functional currency. We use foreign exchange derivatives, typically forward contracts and options, to reduce our overall exposure to the effects of currency fluctuations on cash flows. These exposures are hedged, on average, for less than two years. Interest Rate Risk Management We enter into various long term debt agreements. We use interest rate derivatives, typically swaps, to reduce our exposure to the effects of interest rate fluctuations on the forecasted interest rates for up to two years into the future. We have not received or pledged any collateral related to derivative arrangements at December 31, 2017. The notional and fair values of derivative instruments are as follows at December 31, 2017 and 2016 (in millions):

We estimate that approximately $2.7 million of pretax gain currently included within accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings in the next twelve months. The amount of gain (loss) recognized in earnings on the ineffective portion of derivatives for 2017, 2016 and 2015 was $(0.2) million, $1.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively.
