Property, Plant and Equipment [Abstract] |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net | Property, Plant and Equipment, Net Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation expense is calculated principally on the straight-line basis. Useful lives determined by the Company are as follows: buildings and improvements (20 - 40 years) and machinery and equipment (3 - 15 years). Property, plant and equipment, net, consisted of the following at December 31, (in millions):
| 2021 |  | 2020
Land | $ | 82 |  |  | $ | 86 |
Buildings and improvements | 678 |  |  | 664 |
Machinery and equipment | 2,387 |  |  | 2,314 |
| 3,147 |  |  | 3,064 |
Less: Accumulated depreciation | (1,943) |  |  | (1,888) |
| $ | 1,204 |  |  | $ | 1,176 |
Depreciation expense for continuing operations was $205 million, $200 million and $254 million in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. There was no depreciation expense for discontinued operations in 2019. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company concluded that a triggering event had occurred for all of its asset groups as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to the authoritative accounting literature, the Company compared the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset or group of assets (the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are available) to their respective carrying amount and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $1 million during the year ended December 31, 2020, in the Home Solutions segment associated with its Yankee Candle retail store business. The impairment charge was calculated by subtracting the estimated fair value of the asset group from its carrying value. See Footnote 1 for further information. During 2019, the Company decided not to sell the Commercial Business and reclassified the business from held for sale to held and used. The Company measured the business at the lower of its (i) carrying amount before it was classified as held for sale, adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense that would have been recognized had the Commercial Business been continuously classified as held and used, or (ii) fair value at the date the decision not to sell was made. The Company recorded a charge of $50 million in 2019 relating to the amount of depreciation expense that would have been recorded in prior periods had the Commercial Business been continuously classified as held and used.
