Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information | 18. Segment Information The Company has three reportable operating segments: shopping centers, loan investments and Brazil equity investment. Each consolidated shopping center is considered a separate operating segment and follows the accounting policies described in Note 1; however, each shopping center on a stand-alone basis represents less than 10% of the revenues, profit or loss, and assets of the combined reported operating segment and meets the majority of the aggregation criteria under the applicable standard. The carrying value of the Brazil equity investment is not a measure used by executive management for purposes of decision making related to asset allocation or performance assessment of this segment. The following table summarizes the Company’s shopping centers and office properties (none remaining at December 31, 2013 or 2012). The table includes those assets located in Brazil:
