Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES Cash Flow Hedges The Company has global operations and participates in foreign exchange markets to minimize its risk of loss from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company selectively hedges anticipated transactions that are subject to foreign exchange rate risk primarily using foreign currency exchange forward contracts. The Company hedges 70% to 90% of the notional amount of each of its known foreign exchange transactional exposures. The Company selectively hedges anticipated transactions that are subject to commodity price risk, primarily using commodity hedge contracts, to minimize overall price risk associated with the Company’s purchases of copper and aluminum in cases where commodity price risk cannot be naturally offset or hedged through supply base fixed price contracts. Commodity risks are systematically managed pursuant to policy guidelines. The maturities of the commodity hedge contracts coincide with the expected purchase of the commodities. As cash flow hedges under ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging," the hedge gains or losses due to changes in fair value are initially recorded as a component of AOCI and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged transactions occur and affect earnings. These contracts were highly effective in hedging the variability in future cash flows attributable to changes in currency exchange rates during the years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company had the following outstanding contracts to hedge forecasted commodity purchases (in metric tons):
|  | Volume Outstanding as of September 30,
Commodity |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Copper |  | 3,629 |  |  | 2,656 |
Aluminum |  | 6,758 |  |  | 5,159 |
The Company enters into forward-starting interest rate swaps in conjunction with anticipated note issuances. The following table summarizes forward-starting interest rate swaps and the related anticipated note issuances (in millions):
|  | Year Ended September 30,
| 2022 |  | 2021
US dollar denominated |  |  |  |
Forward-starting interest swaps |  | $ | 300 |  |  | $ | 500 |
Anticipated note issuance |  | 400 |  |  | 500 |
Euro denominated |  |  |  |
Forward-starting interest swap |  | € | 200 |  |  | — |
Anticipated note issuance |  | 600 |  |  | — |
All of the forward-starting interest swaps were terminated when the anticipated notes were issued and none were outstanding at September 30, 2022. Accumulated amounts recorded in AOCI as of the date of the note issuance are amortized to interest expense over the life of the related note to reflect the difference between the swap's reference rate and the fixed rate of the note. Net Investment Hedges The Company enters into foreign currency denominated debt obligations to selectively hedge portions of its net investment in non-U.S. subsidiaries. The currency effects of the debt obligations are reflected in the AOCI account within shareholders’ equity attributable to Johnson Controls ordinary shareholders where they offset currency gains and losses recorded on the Company’s net investments globally. The following table summarizes net investment hedges (in billions):
|  | September 30,
| 2022 |  | 2021
Euro-denominated bonds designated as net investment hedges in Europe |  | € | 2.9 |  |  | € | 2.3 |
Yen-denominated debt designated as a net investment hedge in Japan |  | ¥ | 30 |  |  | ¥ | 25 |
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments The Company selectively uses equity swaps to reduce market risk associated with certain of its stock-based compensation plans, such as its deferred compensation plans. These equity compensation liabilities increase as the Company’s stock price increases and decrease as the Company’s stock price decreases. In contrast, the value of the swap agreement moves in the opposite direction of these liabilities, allowing the Company to fix a portion of the liabilities at a stated amount. The Company hedged approximately 0.3 million ordinary shares, which had a cost basis of $23 million, as of September 30, 2021. No shares were hedged as of September 30, 2022. The Company also holds certain foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815 to hedge foreign currency exposure resulting from monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies. The changes in fair value of these foreign currency exchange derivatives are recorded in the consolidated statements of income where they offset foreign currency transactional gains and losses on the nonfunctional currency denominated assets and liabilities being hedged. Fair Value of Derivative Instruments The following table presents the location and fair values of derivative instruments and hedging activities included in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position (in millions):
| Designated as Hedging Instruments |  | Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Counterparty Credit Risk The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company to counterparty credit risk. The Company has established policies and procedures to limit the potential for counterparty credit risk, including establishing limits for credit exposure and continually assessing the creditworthiness of counterparties. As a matter of practice, the Company deals with major banks worldwide having strong investment grade long-term credit ratings. To further reduce the risk of loss, the Company generally enters into International Swaps and Derivatives Association ("ISDA") master netting agreements with substantially all of its counterparties. The Company enters into ISDA master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the net settlement of amounts owed under the derivative contracts. The master netting agreements generally provide for net settlement of all outstanding contracts with a counterparty in the case of an event of default or a termination event. The Company has not elected to offset the fair value positions of the derivative contracts recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position. The Company's derivative contracts do not contain any credit risk related contingent features and do not require collateral or other security to be furnished by the Company or the counterparties. The Company's exposure to credit risk associated with its derivative instruments is measured on an individual counterparty basis, as well as by groups of counterparties that share similar attributes. The Company does not anticipate any non-performance by any of its counterparties, and the concentration of risk with financial institutions does not present significant credit risk to the Company. The gross and net amounts of derivative assets and liabilities were as follows (in millions):
| Fair Value of Assets |  | Fair Value of Liabilities
| September 30, 2022 |  | September 30, 2021 |  | September 30, 2022 |  | September 30, 2021 |
Gross amount recognized | $ | 54 |  |  | $ | 57 |  |  | $ | 3,138 |  |  | $ | 2,936 |  |

Net amount | $ | 12 |  |  | $ | 41 |  |  | $ | 3,096 |  |  | $ | 2,920 |  |
