Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
DEBT | NOTE 12. DEBT Loans Payable and Commercial Paper Loans payable at December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $208 million and $169 million, respectively, and consisted primarily of notes payable to financial institutions. The weighted-average interest rate for notes payable, bank overdrafts and current maturities of long-term debt at December 31 was as follows:
|  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  |
Weighted-average interest rate |  | 2.71 | % |  | 2.53 | % |  |
We can issue up to $3.5 billion of unsecured, short-term promissory notes (commercial paper) pursuant to the Board of Directors (the Board) authorized commercial paper programs. The programs facilitate the private placement of unsecured short-term debt through third-party brokers. We intend to use the net proceeds from the commercial paper borrowings for general corporate purposes. We had $313 million and $323 million in outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper programs at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The weighted-average interest rate for commercial paper at December 31 was as follows:
|  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  |
Weighted-average interest rate |  | (0.01) | % | (1) | (0.01) | % | (2) |
(1) The weighted-average interest rate, inclusive of all brokerage fees, was negative 0.01 percent at December 31, 2021. This included $113 million of borrowings under the Europe program that were at a negative weighted-average interest rate of 0.39 percent and $200 million of borrowings under the U.S. program at a weighted-average interest rate of 0.21 percent.
(2) The weighted-average interest rate, inclusive of all brokerage fees, was negative 0.01 percent at December 31, 2020. This included $123 million of borrowings under the Europe program that were at a negative weighted-average interest rate of 0.34 percent and $200 million of borrowings under the U.S. program at a weighted-average interest rate of 0.19 percent.
Revolving Credit Facilities On August 18, 2021, we entered into an amended and restated 5-year revolving credit agreement, which allows us to borrow up to $2 billion of unsecured funds at any time prior to August 18, 2026. This credit agreement replaces the prior $2 billion 5-year credit agreement that would have matured on August 22, 2023. Amounts payable under our revolving credit facility will rank pro rata with all of our unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness. Up to $300 million under this credit facility is available for swingline loans. Based on our current long-term debt ratings, the applicable margin on LIBOR rate loans was 0.75 percent per annum as of December 31, 2021. Advances under the facility may be prepaid without premium or penalty, subject to customary breakage costs. On August 18, 2021, we also entered into an amended and restated 364-day credit agreement, which allows us to borrow up to $1.5 billion of unsecured funds at any time prior to August 17, 2022. This credit agreement amended and restated the prior $1.5 billion 364-day credit facility that matured on August 18, 2021. Both credit agreements include various covenants, including, among others, maintaining a net debt to total capital ratio of no more than 0.65 to 1.0. At December 31, 2021, we were in compliance with the financial debt covenants. We intend to maintain credit facilities at the current or higher aggregate amounts by renewing or replacing these facilities at or before expiration. These revolving credit facilities are maintained primarily to provide backup liquidity for our commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes. There were no outstanding borrowings under these facilities at December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2021, our $313 million of commercial paper outstanding effectively reduced the $3.5 billion available capacity under our revolving credit facilities to $3.2 billion. At December 31, 2021, we also had $234 million available for borrowings under our international and other domestic credit facilities. Long-term Debt A summary of long-term debt was as follows:

(1) In 2021 we entered into a series of interest rate swaps to effectively convert from a fixed rate to floating rate. See "Interest Rate Risk" below for additional information.
(2) The effective interest rate is 7.48%.
Principal payments required on long-term debt during the next five years are as follows:

On August 24, 2020, we issued $2 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes consisting of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 0.75 percent senior unsecured notes due in 2025, $850 million aggregate principal amount of 1.50 percent senior unsecured notes due in 2030 and $650 million aggregate principal amount of 2.60 percent senior unsecured notes due in 2050. We received net proceeds of $1.98 billion. The senior unsecured notes pay interest semi-annually on March 1 and September 1, commencing on March 1, 2021. The indenture governing the senior unsecured notes contains covenants that, among other matters, limit (i) our ability to consolidate or merge into, or sell, assign, convey, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our and our subsidiaries' assets to another person, (ii) our and certain of our subsidiaries' ability to create or assume liens and (iii) our and certain of our subsidiaries' ability to engage in sale and leaseback transactions. The $250 million 7.125 percent debentures and $165 million 5.65 percent debentures are unsecured and are not subject to any sinking fund requirements. We can redeem these debentures at any time prior to maturity at the greater of par plus accrued interest or an amount designed to ensure that the debenture holders are not penalized by the early redemption. Our debt agreements contain several restrictive covenants. The most restrictive of these covenants applies to our revolving credit facility which will upon default, among other things, limit our ability to incur additional debt or issue preferred stock, enter into sale-leaseback transactions, sell or create liens on our assets, make investments and merge or consolidate with any other entity. At December 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all of the financial debt covenants under our borrowing agreements. Shelf Registration As a well-known seasoned issuer, we filed an automatic shelf registration for an undetermined amount of debt and equity securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 13, 2019. Under this shelf registration we may offer, from time to time, debt securities, common stock, preferred and preference stock, depositary shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units. Our current shelf is scheduled to expire in February 2022. We have begun the renewal process and plan to file a new automatic shelf registration statement in the first quarter of 2022. Interest Expense For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, total interest incurred was $113 million, $102 million and $112 million, respectively, and interest capitalized was $2 million, $2 million and $3 million, respectively. Interest Rate Risk In the second half of 2021, we entered into a series of interest rate swaps to effectively convert our $500 million senior notes, due in 2025, from a fixed rate of 0.75 percent to a floating rate equal to the three-month LIBOR plus a spread. We also entered into a series of interest rate swaps to effectively convert $765 million of our $850 million senior notes, due in 2030, from a fixed rate of 1.50 percent to a floating rate equal to the three-month LIBOR plus a spread. The swaps were designated, and will be accounted for, as fair value hedges. The gain or loss on these derivative instruments, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in current income as "Interest expense." The net swap settlements that accrue each period are also reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements as "Interest expense." We had a series of interest rate swaps to effectively convert our September 2013, $500 million debt issue, due in 2023, from a fixed rate of 3.65 percent to a floating rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus a spread. The debt is included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as "Long-term debt." The terms of the swaps mirrored those of the debt, with interest paid semi-annually. The swaps were designated, and were accounted for, as fair value hedges. The gain or loss on these derivative instruments, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, were recognized in current income as "Interest expense." The net swap settlements that accrued each period were also reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements as "Interest expense." A basis adjustment related to credit risk, excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, was being amortized over the life of the hedge using a straight-line method and was considered de minimis. In June and July of 2020, we settled our February 2014 interest rate swaps, which previously converted our $500 million debt issue, due in 2023, from fixed rate to floating rate based on a LIBOR spread. The $24 million gain realized upon settlement is being amortized over the remaining three-year term of the related debt. The following table summarizes the gains and losses:
|  | Years ended December 31,
In millions |  | 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2019
Type of Swap |  | Gain (Loss) on Swaps |  | Gain (Loss) on Borrowings |  | Gain (Loss) on Swaps |  | Gain (Loss) on Borrowings |  | Gain (Loss) on Swaps |  | Gain (Loss) on Borrowings

(1) The difference between the gain (loss) on swaps and borrowings represented hedge ineffectiveness.
In 2019 we entered into $350 million of interest rate lock agreements, and in the first half of 2020 we entered into an additional $150 million of lock agreements to reduce the variability of the cash flows of the interest payments on a total of $500 million of fixed rate debt forecast to be issued in 2023 to replace our senior notes at maturity. The terms of the rate locks mirror the time period of the expected fixed rate debt issuance and the expected timing of interest payments on that debt. The gains and losses on these derivative instruments will be initially recorded in other comprehensive income and will be released to earnings in "Interest expense" in future periods to reflect the difference in (1) the fixed rates economically locked in at the inception of the hedge and (2) the actual fixed rates established in the debt instrument at issuance. The following table summarizes the interest rate lock activity in AOCL:

Fair Value of Debt Based on borrowing rates currently available to us for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities, considering our risk premium, the fair values and carrying values of total debt, including current maturities, were as follows:
|  | December 31,
In millions |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Fair values of total debt (1) |  | $ | 4,461 |  |  | $ | 4,665 |
Carrying value of total debt |  | 4,159 |  |  | 4,164 |
(1) The fair value of debt is derived from Level 2 input measures. |  |  |  |
