ASU 2018-12 Transition [Abstract]  
ASU 2018-12 Transition ASU 2018-12 Transition
The Company adopted ASU 2018-12 for LFPBs, DAC and other balances amortized on a basis consistent with DAC by applying the guidance to contracts in-force on the basis of their existing carrying amounts at the transition date. The Company adopted ASU 2018-12 for MRBs on a fully retrospective basis.
The effect of transition adjustments on stockholders’ equity at January 1, 2021 due to the adoption of ASU 2018-12 was as follows:
Retained Earnings (Deficit)AOCI
(In millions)
Liability for future policy benefits$(436)$(2,073)
Market risk benefits and related adjustments(6,237)(3,454)
DAC and VOBA— 520 
Reinsurance recoverables(141)34 
Deferred income tax asset1,431 1,044 
Total$(5,383)$(3,929)
For LFPBs, the transition adjustment to retained earnings relates to instances where net premiums exceed gross premiums resulting in LFPBs being increased to eliminate the premium deficiency. The premium deficiency primarily relates to structured settlement annuities. The transition adjustment related to AOCI represents the effect of the requirement to discount LFPBs based on an upper-medium grade fixed income rate as well as the removal of amounts previously recorded in AOCI for the effects of unrealized investment gains and losses.
For MRBs, the transition adjustment to AOCI relates to the cumulative effect of changes in the nonperformance risk between contract issue date and transition date. The remaining difference between the estimated fair value and carrying amount of MRBs at transition, excluding the amounts recorded in AOCI, was recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings as of the transition date.
For DAC and VOBA, the Company removed amounts previously recorded in AOCI for the effect of unrealized investment gains and losses.
For reinsurance, the adjustments to both retained earnings and AOCI were made to align the measurement of reinsurance recoverables with the related LFPBs.
