Retirement Benefits, Description [Abstract] |
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Disclosure [Text Block] | Employee Benefit Plans We have two qualified defined contribution retirement plans, the GapShare 401(k) Plan and the GapShare Puerto Rico Plan (the “Plans”), which are available to employees who meet the eligibility requirements. The Plans permit eligible employees to make contributions up to the maximum limits allowable under the applicable Internal Revenue Codes. Under the Plans, we match, in cash, all or a portion of employees’ contributions under a predetermined formula. Our contributions vest immediately. Our matching contributions to the Plans were $46 million, $45 million, and $45 million in fiscal 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. We maintain the Gap, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (DCP), which allows eligible employees to defer base compensation and bonus up to a maximum percentage, and non-employee directors to defer receipt of a portion of their Board fees. 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. As of February 1, 2020 and February 2, 2019, the assets related to the DCP were $51 million and $48 million, respectively, and were recorded in other long-term assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of February 1, 2020 and February 2, 2019, the corresponding liabilities related to the DCP were $51 million and $48 million, respectively, and were recorded in lease incentives and other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We match all or a portion of employees’ contributions under a predetermined formula. Plan investments are elected by the participants, and investment returns are not guaranteed by the Company. Our matching contributions to the DCP in fiscal 2019, 2018, and 2017 were not material.
