Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Interest Rate Derivatives – Cash Flow Hedges From time to time, the Company has entered into various interest rate lock agreements and forward starting interest rate swap agreements to hedge part of the Company's interest rate exposure associated with the variability in future cash flows attributable to changes in interest rates. During the fourth quarter of 2013 and first quarter of 2014, the Company entered into various forward starting interest rate swap agreements for an aggregate notional amount of $150 million which were accounted for as cash flow hedges. In connection with the issuance of the 2015 Senior Notes, all of these agreements were settled and the Company paid $17 million. These losses are deferred in stockholders’ equity, net of income taxes, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense, net over the term of the Senior Notes due 2025. In March 2015, the Company entered into interest rate lock agreements with several financial institutions for a total notional amount of $350 million which were accounted for as cash flow hedges. These agreements were entered into to hedge a portion of the Company’s interest rate exposure associated with variability in future cash flows attributable to changes in the five-year, ten-year and thirty-year treasury rates related to the planned issuance of the 2015 Senior Notes. In connection with the issuance of the 2015 Senior Notes, these agreements were settled and the Company received $3 million. These gains are deferred in stockholders’ equity, net of income taxes, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense, net over the term of the respective senior notes. The total net loss, net of taxes, recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss, related to the Company's cash flow hedges as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $12 million and $15 million, respectively. The loss recognized on the Company's cash flow hedges for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, as a result of ineffectiveness, was not material. The net amount of deferred losses on cash flow hedges that is expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings within the next twelve months is $3 million. Interest Rate Derivatives – Fair Value Hedges The Company maintains various fixed-to-variable interest rate swaps to convert a portion of the Company's long-term debt into variable interest rate debt. A summary of the notional amounts of interest rate derivatives – fair value hedges as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:
|  | Floating Rate |  | Notional Amount
Debt Instrument |  | Paid by the Company |  | 2015 |  | 2014
3.20% Senior Notes due April 2016 |  | Six-month LIBOR plus a 2.3% spread |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 200 |
4.75% Senior Notes due January 2020 |  | One-month LIBOR plus a 3.6% spread |  | 350 |  |  | 350 |
4.70% Senior Notes due April 2021 |  | One-month LIBOR plus a 2.45% to 3.39% spread |  | 400 |  |  | 400 |
4.25% Senior Notes due April 2024 |  | One-month LIBOR plus a 1.54% to 1.59% spread |  | 250 |  |  | 250 |
3.50% Senior Notes due March 2025 |  | One-month LIBOR plus a 1.44% spread |  | 200 |  |  | — |
|  |  |  | $ | 1,200 |  |  | $ | 1,200 |
In April 2015, the Company terminated the outstanding interest rate swaps associated with the Senior Notes due 2016. The value of these interest rate swaps at the date of termination was not material. The net amount of losses on fair value hedges related to the Senior Notes due 2016 reclassified into earnings upon redemption for the year ended December 31, 2015 was not material. In prior years, the Company entered into various fixed-to-variable interest rate swap agreements that were accounted for as fair value hedges of a portion of the Senior Notes due 2016 and a portion of the Senior Notes due 2020. In July 2012, the Company monetized the value of these interest rate swap assets by terminating the hedging instruments. The asset value, including accrued interest through the date of termination, was $72 million and the amount to be amortized as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining terms of the hedged debt instruments was $65 million, of which the remaining unamortized balance as of December 31, 2015 was $28 million. Since inception, the fair value hedges have been effective or highly effective; therefore, there is no impact on earnings for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 as a result of hedge ineffectiveness. Interest Rate Derivatives - Economic Hedges In March 2015, in connection with the retirement of debt (see Note 13), the Company entered into reverse interest rate lock agreements with several financial institutions which were not designated for hedge accounting. The Company entered into these agreements to hedge the variability in cash flows associated with $280 million of the $1.3 billion principal amount of debt that was retired in the first and second quarters of 2015. These agreements were settled during the first and second quarters of 2015 which resulted in a gain of $3 million which was recognized in other (expense) income, net.
