Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
SEGMENT INFORMATION | SEGMENT INFORMATION We define segment results as income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, other operating income, other (expense) income and income taxes, and include the results of non-consolidated affiliates. Consistent with the guidance in ASC 280, we have determined it is appropriate to include the operating results of non-consolidated affiliates in the relevant segment financial results. Intersegment sales of $81.3 million and $18.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, have been eliminated. These represent the sale of caustic soda, bleach, potassium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid between Chemical Distribution and Chlor Alkali Products, at prices that approximate market. Consistent with management’s monitoring of the operating segments, synergies realized of $11.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 have been transferred from the Chlor Alkali Products segment to the Chemical Distribution segment, representing incremental earnings on volumes sold of caustic soda, bleach, potassium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid.
