Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including derivatives and available-for-sale debt securities. The Company categorizes financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value based upon a three-level hierarchy that considers the related valuation techniques. There were no purchases, sales, issuances, or settlements related to recurring level 3 measurements during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2019 or November 3, 2018. There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities into or out of level 1, level 2, and level 3 during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2019 or November 3, 2018. Financial Assets and Liabilities Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and cash equivalents are as follows:

We have highly liquid investments classified as cash equivalents, which are placed primarily in time deposits, money market funds, and commercial paper. With the exception of our available-for-sale investments noted below, we value these investments at their original purchase prices plus interest that has accrued at the stated rate. Our available-for-sale securities are comprised of investments in debt securities. These securities are recorded at fair value using market prices. As of November 2, 2019 and November 3, 2018, the Company held $294 million and $296 million, respectively, of available-for-sale debt securities with maturity dates greater than three months and less than two years within short-term investments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, as of November 2, 2019 and November 3, 2018, the Company held $17 million and $6 million of available-for-sale debt securities with maturities of less than three months at the time of purchase within cash and cash equivalents on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities included within accumulated other comprehensive income were immaterial as of November 2, 2019 and November 3, 2018. The Company regularly reviews its available-for-sale debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment. For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2019 and November 3, 2018, the Company did not consider any of its securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired and, accordingly, did not recognize any impairment loss. Derivative financial instruments primarily include foreign exchange forward contracts. The fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments is determined using pricing models based on current market rates. See Note 5 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding currencies hedged against the U.S. dollar. We maintain the Gap Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (“DCP”), which allows eligible employees and non-employee directors to defer base compensation up to a maximum percentage. Plan investments are directed by participants and are recorded at market value and designated for the DCP. The fair value of the Company’s DCP assets is determined based on quoted market prices, and the assets are recorded in other long-term assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Nonfinancial Assets We review the carrying amount of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The fair value of the long-lived assets is determined using level 3 inputs and based on discounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group using a discount rate commensurate with the risk. The asset group is defined as the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available and largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets, which for our retail stores is primarily at the store level. There were no material impairment charges recorded for long-lived assets for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2019 or November 3, 2018. As discussed in Note 1, we recorded a decrease to fiscal 2019 opening retained earnings due to the adoption of ASC 842 related to impairments as of the effective date. We review the carrying amount of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. There were no material impairment charges recorded for goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2019 or November 3, 2018.
