Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] |
ASSETS HELD FOR SALE | ASSETS HELD FOR SALE As previously disclosed, on January 24, 2021, we entered into an agreement to divest our UPS Freight business to TFI International Inc. for $800 million, subject to working capital and other adjustments. As of December 31, 2020, we classified UPS Freight as held for sale and, as a result, recognized a total pre-tax impairment charge of $686 million ($629 million after tax), comprised of a goodwill impairment charge of $494 million and a valuation allowance of $192 million to adjust the carrying value of the disposal group to fair value less cost to sell. As of March 31, 2021, we increased the valuation allowance by $66 million ($50 million after tax) to adjust the carrying value of the disposal group to our revised estimate of fair value less cost to sell. On April 30, 2021, we completed the divestiture for cash proceeds of $848 million, which included our estimate of working capital and other adjustments. Self-insurance reserves for UPS Freight and obligations for benefits earned within UPS-sponsored pension and postretirement medical benefit plans were retained by us. In connection with the completion of the divestiture, we remeasured and amended certain of our company-sponsored U.S. pension and postretirement medical benefit plans, resulting in a $2.1 billion reduction in the obligations included in our consolidated balance sheet. Also in connection with the completion of the divestiture, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $101 million ($77 million after tax), which included the impact of the plan remeasurements and plan amendments. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, we recorded a net pre-tax gain of $46 million ($35 million after tax). The activity was recognized within Other expenses in the statements of consolidated income. UPS and TFI also entered into an agreement for UPS Freight to continue to utilize our U.S. Domestic Package network to fulfill shipments for an initial period of five years. UPS also agreed to provide certain other services to TFI for a transitional period. We recognize our performance under commercial agreements as revenue in the statements of consolidated income, with the associated expenses presented in the respective line items of operating expenses. The following table summarizes the carrying values of the assets and liabilities classified as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 (in millions):
