Segment Reporting, Measurement Disclosures [Abstract] |
Reportable Business Segments | Reportable Business Segments: Description of Segments We operate in three reportable business segments of the heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (“HVACR”) industry. Our segments are organized primarily by the nature of the products and services we provide. The following table describes each segment:
Segment |  | Products or Services |  | Markets Served |  | Geographic Areas
Residential Heating & Cooling |  | Furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps, packaged heating and cooling systems, indoor air quality equipment, comfort control products, replacement parts and supplies |  | Residential Replacement; Residential New Construction |  | United States Canada
Commercial Heating & Cooling |  | Unitary heating and air conditioning equipment, applied systems, controls, installation and service of commercial heating and cooling equipment, variable refrigerant flow commercial products |  | Light Commercial |  | United States Canada Europe
Refrigeration |  | Condensing units, unit coolers, fluid coolers, air- cooled condensers, air handlers, process chillers, controls, compressorized racks, supermarket display cases and systems |  | Light Commercial; Food Preservation; Non-Food/Industrial |  | United States Canada Europe Asia Pacific South America
Segment Data We use segment profit or loss as the primary measure of profitability to evaluate operating performance and to allocate capital resources. We define segment profit or loss as a segment’s income or loss from continuing operations before income taxes included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, excluding certain items. The reconciliation below details the items excluded. Our corporate costs include those costs related to corporate functions such as legal, internal audit, treasury, human resources, tax compliance and senior executive staff. Corporate costs also include the long-term share-based incentive awards provided to employees throughout LII. We recorded these share-based awards as Corporate costs because they are determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors and based on the historical practice of doing so for internal reporting purposes. Any intercompany sales and associated profit (and any other intercompany items) are eliminated from segment results. There were no significant intercompany eliminations included in the results presented in the table below. Net sales and segment profit (loss) by segment, along with a reconciliation of segment profit (loss) to Operating income, are shown below (in millions):
