Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Business and Principles of Consolidation . The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Crown Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and its consolidated subsidiary companies (where the context requires, the “Company” shall include reference to the Company and its consolidated subsidiary companies). The Company is a worldwide leader in the design, manufacture and sale of packaging products and equipment for consumer goods and industrial products. The Company’s packaging for consumer goods include steel and aluminum cans for beverage, food, household and other consumer products, glass bottles for beverage products and metal vacuum closures and steel crowns sold through the Company's sales organization to the soft drink, food, citrus, brewing, household products, personal care and various other industries. The Company's packaging for industrial products includes steel and plastic strap consumables and equipment, paper-based protective packaging, and plastic film consumables and equipment, which are sold into the metals, food and beverage, construction, agricultural, corrugated and general industries. The financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and reflect management’s estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates, impacting reported results of operations and financial position. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In deciding which entities should be reported on a consolidated basis, the Company first determines whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). If an entity is a VIE, the Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary and therefore, should consolidate the VIE. If an entity is not a VIE, the Company consolidates those entities in which it has control, including certain subsidiaries that are not majority-owned. Certain of the Company’s agreements with noncontrolling interests contain provisions in which the Company would surrender certain decision-making rights upon a change in control of the Company. Accordingly, consolidation of these operations may no longer be appropriate subsequent to a change in control of the Company, as defined in the agreements. Investments in companies in which the Company does not have control, but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for by the equity method. Other investments are carried at cost. Foreign Currency Translation . For non-U.S. subsidiaries which operate in a local currency environment, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Income, expense and cash flow items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments for these subsidiaries are accumulated as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in equity. For non-U.S. subsidiaries that use a U.S. dollar functional currency, local currency inventories and property, plant and equipment are translated into U.S. dollars at rates prevailing when acquired; all other assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates. Inventories charged to cost of sales and depreciation are remeasured at historical rates; all other income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Gains and losses which result from remeasurement are included in earnings. Revenue Recognition . On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted new accounting guidance which outlined a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and superseded previous revenue recognition guidance. Under previous guidance, the Company generally recognized revenue from product sales when the goods were shipped and title and risk of loss passed to the customer. Under the new guidance, revenues are recognized when control of the promised product is transferred to customers. The majority of the Company’s revenues from metal packaging products are derived from multi-year requirement contracts with leading manufacturers and marketers of packaged consumer products for can sets, comprising a can and an end. As requirement contracts do not typically include fixed volumes, customers often purchase products pursuant to purchase orders or other communications which are short-term in nature. The can and the end are considered separate performance obligations because they are distinct and separately identifiable. Revenues from the Company's transit packaging segment are generally derived from individual purchase orders which may include multiple goods and services which are separate performance obligations because they are distinct and separately identifiable. The Company manufactures certain products that have no alternative use to the Company once they are printed or manufactured to customer specifications. If the Company has an enforceable right to payment for custom products at all times in the manufacturing process, revenue is recognized over time. In each of the Company’s geographic markets, revenue from beverage cans is primarily recognized over time using the units produced output method as beverage cans are generally printed for a specific customer in a continuous production process. The timing of revenue recognition for the Company’s other products, including beverage ends and three-piece products, which includes food cans and ends and aerosol cans and ends, may vary as these products may be printed or customized depending upon customer preferences which can vary by geographic market. Revenue that is recognized over time for the Company’s three-piece products and equipment business is generally recognized using the cost-to-cost input method as these products involve an intermediary step that results in customized work-in-process inventory. For products that follow a point in time model, revenue is generally recognized when title and risk of loss transfer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Standalone selling prices for each performance obligation are generally stated in the contract. When the Company offers variable consideration in the form of volume rebates to customers, it estimates the most likely amount of revenue to which it is expected to be entitled and includes the estimate in the transaction price, limited to the amount which is probable will not result in reversal of cumulative revenue recognized when the variable consideration is resolved. When the Company offers customers options to purchase additional product at discounted prices, judgment is required to determine if the discounted prices represent material rights. If so, the transaction price allocated to the discount is based on its relative standalone price and is recognized upon purchase of the additional product. Customer payment terms are typically less than one year and as such, the Company has applied the practical expedient to exclude consideration of significant financing components from the determination of transaction price. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from net sales. Shipping and handling fees and costs from product sales are reported as cost of products sold and are accrued when the Company recognizes revenue over time before the shipping and handling activities occur. Costs to obtain a contract are generally immaterial but the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense these costs as incurred if the duration of the contract is one year or less. Unbilled receivables are recorded for revenue recognized over time when the Company has determined that control has passed to the customer but the customer has not yet been invoiced because the Company does not have present right to payment. The Company generally has a present right to payment when title of product transfers. Unbilled receivables are included in receivables in the Consolidated Balance Sheet with a corresponding decrease to inventory. Contract assets are recorded for revenue recognized over time when the Company has determined that control for a performance obligation has passed to the customer, but the right to invoice the customer is contingent upon the completion of the performance obligations included in the contract. Contract assets are classified as current as they are expected to be invoiced within one year and may not exceed their net realizable value. Contract liabilities are established if the Company must defer the recognition of a portion of consideration received because it has to satisfy a future obligation. Contract liabilities are classified as current or noncurrent based on when the Company expects to recognize revenue. Stock-Based Compensation . For awards with a service or market condition, compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis using the grant date fair value of the award and the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. For awards with a performance condition, the Company assesses the probability of vesting at each reporting period and adjust compensation cost based on its probability assessment. The Company’s plans provide for stock awards which may include accelerated vesting upon retirement, disability, or death of eligible employees. The Company considers a stock-based award to be vested when the service period is no longer contingent on the employee providing future service. Accordingly, the related compensation cost is recognized immediately for awards granted to retirement-eligible individuals, or over the period from the grant date to the date that retirement eligibility is achieved if less than the stated vesting period. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash . Cash equivalents represent investments with maturities of three months or less from the time of purchase and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are included in accounts payable. The Company generally classifies any cash that is legally restricted as to withdrawal or usage as restricted cash. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts . Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable. The allowance is determined based on a review of individual accounts for collectability, generally focusing on those accounts that are past due or experiencing financial difficulties. The current year expense to adjust the allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded within selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Inventory Valuation . Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost principally determined under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) or average cost method. Property, Plant and Equipment . Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and includes expenditures for new facilities and equipment and those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. Cost of constructed assets includes capitalized interest incurred during the construction and development period. Maintenance and repairs, including labor and material costs for planned major maintenance such as annual production line overhauls, are expensed as incurred. When PP&E is retired or otherwise disposed, the net carrying amount is eliminated with any gain or loss on disposition recognized in earnings at that time. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets described below (in years). The Company periodically reviews the estimated useful lives of its PP&E and, where appropriate, changes are made prospectively. Land improvements 25 Buildings and building improvements 25 – 40 Machinery and equipment 3 – 18 Goodwill and Intangible Assets . Assets and liabilities of acquired businesses are recorded under the acquisition method of accounting at their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition. Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying identifiable net assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill is carried at cost and reviewed for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of each year or when facts and circumstances indicate goodwill may be impaired. Goodwill was allocated to the reporting units at the time of each acquisition based on the relative fair values of the reporting units. In assessing goodwill for impairment, the Company may first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Further quantitative assessment may then be required. The quantitative assessment involves a number of assumptions and judgments, including the calculation of fair value for the Company’s identified reporting units. The Company determines the estimated fair value of each reporting unit based on an average of the estimated fair values using an income and a market approach. The income approach utilizes significant assumptions, including revenue and Adjusted EBITDA margin growth rates and discount rate. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, any impairment loss is measured by comparing the carrying value of the reporting unit to its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Definite-lived intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Definite-lived intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives described below (in years). Definite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable from their undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. Customer relationships 11 - 18 Trade names 8 - 27 Technology 6 - 8 Long-term supply contracts 15 Patents 8 Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets . In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived assets, primarily PP&E and certain identifiable intangible assets with finite lives, may be impaired, the Company performs a recoverability evaluation. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying value of an asset is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is measured by comparing the carrying value of the asset to its fair value, based on discounted cash flows. Long-lived assets classified as held for sale are presented in the balance sheet at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less cost to sell. Leases. The Company has operating and finance leases for land and buildings related to certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses and corporate offices, vehicle fleets and certain office and manufacturing equipment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company's lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Variable lease payment amounts that cannot be determined at commencement of the lease, such as increases in index rates, are not included in the measurement of the lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets and are recognized in the period those payments are incurred. The Company separates lease and non-lease components of lease arrangements and allocates contract consideration based on standalone selling prices. Variable consideration is allocated to the lease and non-lease components to which the variable payments specifically relates. The discount rate implicit within the Company's leases is often not determinable and therefore the Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of the lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is determined based on lease term and the currency in which lease payments are made. The Company's leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Taxes on Income . The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach. Deferred taxes represent the future expected tax consequences of differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities based upon enacted tax rates and laws. The Tax Act created a requirement that certain intangible income of foreign subsidiaries must be included currently in the gross income of the U.S. shareholder. The Company has made an accounting policy election to treat taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to this intangible income as a current period expense when incurred. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. Investment tax credits are accounted for using the deferral method. Income tax-related interest and penalties are reported as income tax expense. Derivatives and Hedging . All outstanding derivative financial instruments are recognized in the balance sheet at their fair values. The impact on earnings from recognizing the fair values of these instruments depends on their intended use, their hedge designation and their effectiveness in offsetting changes in the fair values of the exposures they are hedging. Changes in the fair values of instruments designated to reduce or eliminate adverse fluctuations in the fair values of recognized assets and liabilities are reported currently in earnings along with changes in the fair values of the hedged items. Changes in the effective portions of the fair values of instruments used to reduce or eliminate adverse fluctuations in cash flows of anticipated or forecasted transactions are reported in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income are reclassified to earnings when the related hedged items impact earnings or the anticipated transactions are no longer probable. Changes in the fair values of derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges or do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment are reported currently in earnings. Amounts reported in earnings are classified consistent with the item being hedged. The effectiveness of derivative instruments in reducing risks associated with the hedged exposures is assessed at inception and on an ongoing basis. Time value, a component of an instrument’s fair value, is excluded in assessing effectiveness for fair value hedges, except hedges of firm commitments, and included for cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively when (i) the instrument is no longer effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the underlying hedged item, (ii) the instrument expires, is sold, terminated or exercised, or (iii) designating the instrument as a hedge is no longer appropriate. The Company formally documents all relationships between its hedging instruments and hedged items at inception, including its risk management objective and strategy for establishing various hedge relationships. Cash flows from hedging instruments are classified in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows consistent with the items being hedged. Treasury Stock . Treasury stock is reported at par value. The excess of fair value over par value is first charged to paid-in capital, if any, and then to retained earnings. Research and Development . Research, development and engineering costs of $55 in 2019, $51 in 2018, and $39 in 2017 were expensed as incurred and reported in selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Substantially all engineering and development costs are related to developing new products or designing significant improvements to existing products or processes. Costs primarily include employee salaries and benefits and facility costs. Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications of prior years’ data have been made to conform to the current year presentation. Recent Accounting and Reporting Pronouncements. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on lease accounting. Under the new guidance, lease classification criteria and income statement recognition are similar to previous guidance; however, all leases with a term longer than one year are recorded on the balance sheet through a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability. The Company adopted the standard on a modified retrospective basis on January 1, 2019. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients, which allowed the Company to carry forward its historical assessments of whether contracts are or contain leases, lease classification and initial direct costs. Adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of operating right-of-use assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities of approximately $220 . Finance leases were already recorded on the balance sheet under the previous guidance in current and long-term maturities of long-term debt. Upon adoption of this standard $5 was reclassified to accrued liabilities and $24 was reclassified to other non-current liabilities. The Company reclassified prior period amounts to conform to the current year presentation. See Note B for further information on the Company's lease arrangements. In February 2018, the FASB issued new accounting guidance to permit the reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive earnings to retained earnings of stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2019 and elected not to reclassify stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments. The new standard introduces an approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. The new approach to estimating credit losses (referred to as the current expected credit losses model) applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in operating leases and off-balance-sheet credit exposures. This guidance is effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard and does not expect the guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance which aligns the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service arrangement (i.e. hosting arrangement) with the guidance on capitalizing costs for internal use software. The Company will adopt this standard on a prospective basis on January 1, 2020 and does not expect the guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. ​ In December 2019, the FASB issued new guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes by, among other things, reducing complexity in the interim-period accounting for year-to-date loss limitations and changes in tax laws. The guidance is effective for the Company on January 1, 2021. The Company does not expect the guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The Company accounts for transfers under its securitization facilities as sales because the Company sells full title and ownership in the underlying receivables and has met the criteria for control of the receivables to be considered transferred. The Company accounts for its factoring arrangements as either sales or secured borrowing based on whether it has transferred control over the factored receivables. The Company’s continuing involvement in factored receivables accounted for as sales is limited to servicing the receivables. The Company receives adequate compensation for servicing the receivables and no servicing asset or liability is recorded. At December 31, amounts securitized or factored were as follows: 2019 2018 Accounted for as secured borrowings $ 14 $ 9 Accounted for as sales 1,318 1,097 In July 2018, the Company terminated its $200 North American securitization facility, which included a deferred purchase price component, and entered into a new securitization facility to sell, on a revolving basis, certain trade accounts receivable balances up to a maximum of $375 . The new facility, which matures in 2020, removed the deferred purchase price component but requires the Company to maintain a deposit in a restricted cash account. The Company received net proceeds of $106 from the termination of the securitization facility and resale of receivables under the new agreement. These proceeds are included in the beneficial interest in securitized receivables line in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The Company recorded expenses related to securitization and factoring facilities of $23 in 2019, $21 in 2018, and $15 in 2017 as interest expense.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative and Other Financial Instruments	Derivative and Other Financial Instruments Fair Value Measurements Under U.S. GAAP a framework exists for measuring fair value, providing a three-tier hierarchy of pricing inputs used to report assets and liabilities that are adjusted to fair value. Level 1 includes inputs such as quoted prices which are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 3 includes unobservable pricing inputs that are not corroborated by market data or other objective sources. The Company has no items valued using Level 3 inputs other than certain pension plan assets. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of assets and liabilities measured at fair value and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company applies a market approach to value its commodity price hedge contracts. Prices from observable markets are used to develop the fair value of these financial instruments and they are reported under Level 2. The Company uses an income approach to value its foreign exchange forward contracts. These contracts are valued using a discounted cash flow model that calculates the present value of future cash flows under the terms of the contracts using market information as of the reporting date, such as foreign exchange spot and forward rates, and are reported under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair value disclosures for financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis are provided later in this note. In addition, see Note M for fair value disclosures related to debt. Derivative Financial Instruments In the normal course of business the Company is subject to risk from adverse fluctuations in currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. The Company manages these risks through a program that includes the use of derivative financial instruments, primarily swaps and forwards. Counterparties to these contracts are major financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these counterparties. The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company’s objective in managing exposure to market risk is to limit the impact on earnings and cash flow. The extent to which the Company uses such instruments is dependent upon its access to these contracts in the financial markets and its success using other methods, such as netting exposures in the same currencies to mitigate foreign exchange risk and using sales agreements that permit the pass-through of commodity price and foreign exchange rate risk to customers. For derivative financial instruments accounted for in hedging relationships, the Company formally designates and documents, at inception, the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure, the risk management objective and the manner in which effectiveness will be assessed. The Company formally assesses, both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the hedging relationships are effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the related underlying exposures. When a hedge no longer qualifies for hedge accounting, the change in fair value from the date of the last effectiveness test is recognized in earnings. Any gain or loss which has accumulated in other comprehensive income at the date of the last effectiveness test is reclassified into earnings at the same time as the underlying exposure. Cash Flow Hedges The Company designates certain derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges. No components of the hedging instruments are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Changes in fair value of outstanding derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income until earnings are impacted by the hedged transaction. Classification of the gain or loss in the Consolidated Statements of Operations upon release from accumulated other comprehensive income is the same as that of the underlying exposure. Contracts outstanding at December 31, 2019 mature between one and twenty-seven months . When the Company discontinues hedge accounting because it is no longer probable that an anticipated transaction will occur in the originally specified period, changes to fair value accumulated in other comprehensive income are recognized immediately in earnings. The Company uses commodity forwards to hedge anticipated purchases of various commodities, including aluminum, fuel oil and natural gas and these exposures are hedged by a central treasury unit. The Company also designates certain foreign exchange contracts as cash flow hedges of anticipated foreign currency denominated sales or purchases. The Company manages these risks at the operating unit level. Often, foreign currency risk is hedged together with the related commodity price risk. In June 2019, the Company entered into interest rate swaps to convert $200 of its U.S. dollar term loan facility from floating-rate to a fixed-rate of 1.82% . These interest rate swaps mature in June 2021. The following tables set forth financial information about the impact on accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") and earnings from changes in fair value related to derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges. Amount of gain/(loss) recognized in AOCI Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges 2019 2018 Foreign exchange $ (8 ) $ (3 ) Interest rate (1 ) — Commodities (13 ) (32 ) $ (22 ) $ (35 ) Amount of gain/ (loss) reclassified from AOCI into income Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges 2019 2018 Affected line item in the Statement of Operations Foreign exchange $ (4 ) $ (11 ) Net sales Commodities 14 (5 ) Net sales Foreign exchange (1 ) 6 Cost of products sold Commodities (52 ) 31 Cost of products sold (43 ) 21 Income before taxes 11 (6 ) Provision for income taxes $ (32 ) $ 15 Net Income For the year ended December 31, 2020, a net loss of $9 ( $7 , net of tax) is expected to be reclassified to earnings. No amounts were reclassified during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 in connection with anticipated transactions that were no longer considered probable. Fair Value Hedges and Contracts Not Designated as Hedges The Company designates certain derivative financial instruments as fair value hedges of recognized foreign-denominated assets and liabilities, generally trade accounts receivable and payable and unrecognized firm commitments. The notional values and maturity dates of the derivative instruments coincide with those of the hedged items. Changes in fair value of the derivative financial instruments, excluding time value, are offset by changes in fair value of the related hedged items. Certain derivative financial instruments, including foreign exchange contracts related to intercompany debt, were not designated or did not qualify for hedge accounting; however, they are effective economic hedges as the changes in their fair value, except for time value, are offset by changes from re-measurement of the related hedged items. The Company’s primary use of these derivative instruments is to offset the earnings impact that fluctuations in foreign exchange rates have on certain monetary assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies. Changes in fair value of these derivative instruments are immediately recognized in earnings as foreign exchange adjustments. The impact on earnings from foreign exchange contracts designated as fair value hedges was a gain of $1 for the year ended December 31, 2019 and a loss of $2 for the year ended December 31, 2018 . These adjustments were reported within foreign exchange in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and were offset by changes in the fair values of the related hedged items. The following table sets forth the impact on earnings from derivatives not designated as hedges. Pre-tax amount of gain/(loss) recognized in earnings Derivatives not designated as hedges 2019 2018 Affected line item in the Statement of Operations Foreign exchange $ (3 ) $ 4 Net sales Foreign exchange 3 (6 ) Cost of products sold Foreign exchange (26 ) (26 ) Foreign exchange $ (26 ) $ (28 ) Net Investment Hedges The Company designates certain debt and derivative instruments as net investment hedges to manage foreign currency risk relating to net investments in subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded gains of $27 ( $27 , net of tax) and $47 ( $43 , net of tax) in other comprehensive income for certain debt instruments that are designated as hedges of its net investment in a euro-based subsidiary. As of December 31, 2019, cumulative losses of $32 ( $9 , net of tax) were recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income related to these net investment hedges and the carrying amount of the hedged net investment was approximately €1,207 ( $1,354 at December 31, 2019). In November 2018, the Company entered into a series of cross-currency swaps with an aggregate notional value of $875 ( €768 ). The swaps are designated as hedges of the Company's net investment in a euro-based subsidiary. Under the cross-currency contracts, the Company will receive semi-annual fixed U.S. dollar payments at a rate of 4.75% of the U.S. notional value and pay 1.84% on the euro notional value. In May 2019, the Company entered into a cross-currency swap with an aggregate notional value of $200 ( €179 ). The swap is designated as a hedge of the Company's net investment in a euro-based subsidiary. Under the cross-currency contract, the Company receives quarterly variable U.S. dollar payments at a rate of LIBOR plus a floating rate spread on the dollar notional value and pays EURIBOR plus a floating rate spread on the euro notional value. Gains or losses on net investment hedges remain in accumulated other comprehensive income until disposal of the underlying assets. The following tables set forth financial information about the impact on other comprehensive income ("OCI") from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments designated as net investment hedges. Amount of gain/(loss) recognized in OCI Derivatives designated as net investment hedges 2019 2018 Foreign exchange $ 26 $ 11 Gains and losses representing components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness on derivatives designated as net investment hedges are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. Fair Values of Derivative Financial Instruments The following table sets forth the Company's financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. Balance Sheet classification December 31, December 31, 2018 Balance Sheet classification December 31, December 31, 2018 Derivatives designated as hedging instruments Foreign exchange contracts cash flow Other current assets $ 10 $ 6 Accrued liabilities $ 15 $ 5 Other non-current assets 1 3 Other non-current liabilities 1 1 Foreign exchange contracts fair value Other current assets 1 1 Accrued liabilities 3 1 Commodities contracts cash flow Other current assets 11 16 Accrued liabilities 21 42 Other non-current assets — 2 Other non-current liabilities — 6 Interest rate contracts cash flow Other non-current assets — — Other non-current liabilities 1 — Net investment hedge Other non-current assets 51 15 Other non-current liabilities 2 — $ 74 $ 43 $ 43 $ 55 Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments Foreign exchange contracts Other current assets $ 7 $ 4 Accrued liabilities $ 5 $ 4 Other non-current assets 2 — Other non-current liabilities 1 — $ 9 $ 4 $ 6 $ 4 Total derivatives $ 83 $ 47 $ 49 $ 59 Fair Value Hedge Carrying Amounts Carrying amount of the hedged assets/(liabilities) Line item in the Balance Sheet in which the hedged item is included December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Receivables, net 12 15 Accrued liabilities (83 ) (13 ) As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the cumulative amounts of fair value hedging adjustments included in the carrying amount of the hedge assets and liabilities were losses of $2 and less than $1 . Offsetting of Derivative Assets and Liabilities Certain derivative financial instruments are subject to agreements with counterparties similar to master netting arrangements and are eligible for offset. The Company has made an accounting policy election not to offset the fair values of these instruments. In the table below, the aggregate fair values of the Company's derivative assets and liabilities are presented on both a gross and net basis, where appropriate. Gross amounts recognized in the Balance Sheet Gross amounts not offset in the Balance Sheet Net amount Balance at December 31, 2019 Derivative assets $ 83 $ 16 $ 67 Derivative liabilities 49 16 33 Balance at December 31, 2018 Derivative assets $ 47 $ 19 $ 28 Derivative liabilities 59 19 40 Notional Values of Outstanding Derivative Instruments The aggregate U.S. dollar-equivalent notional values of outstanding derivative instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets were: December 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges: Foreign exchange $ 1,030 $ 820 Commodities 334 428 Interest rate 200 — Derivatives designated as fair value hedges: Foreign exchange 142 74 Derivatives designated as net investment hedges: Foreign exchange 1,075 875 Derivatives not designated as hedges: Foreign exchange 1,017 796

Asbestos-Related Liabilities

Asbestos-Related Liabilities	12 Months Ended

Liability for Asbestos and Environmental Claims [Abstract]
Asbestos-Related Liabilities	Asbestos-Related Liabilities Crown Cork & Seal Company, Inc. (“Crown Cork”) is one of many defendants in a substantial number of lawsuits filed throughout the United States by persons alleging bodily injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. These claims arose from the insulation operations of a U.S. company, the majority of whose stock Crown Cork purchased in 1963. Approximately ninety days after the stock purchase, this U.S. company sold its insulation assets and was later merged into Crown Cork. Prior to 1998, amounts paid to asbestos claimants were covered by a fund made available to Crown Cork under a 1985 settlement with carriers insuring Crown Cork through 1976, when Crown Cork became self-insured. The fund was depleted in 1998 and the Company has no remaining coverage for asbestos-related costs. The states of Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Mississippi, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming enacted legislation that limits asbestos-related liabilities under state law of companies such as Crown Cork that allegedly incurred these liabilities because they are successors by corporate merger to companies that had been involved with asbestos. The legislation, which applies to future and, with the exception of Arkansas, Georgia, South Carolina, South Dakota, West Virginia and Wyoming, pending claims at the time of enactment, caps asbestos-related liabilities at the fair market value of the predecessor's total gross assets adjusted for inflation. Crown Cork has paid significantly more for asbestos-related claims than the total value of its predecessor's assets adjusted for inflation. Crown Cork has integrated the legislation into its claims defense strategy. The Company cautions, however, that the legislation may be challenged and there can be no assurance regarding the ultimate effect of the legislation on Crown Cork. In June 2003, the State of Texas enacted legislation that limits the asbestos-related liabilities in Texas courts of companies such as Crown Cork that allegedly incurred these liabilities because they are successors by corporate merger to companies that had been involved with asbestos. The Texas legislation, which applies to future and pending claims, caps asbestos-related liabilities at the total gross value of the predecessor’s assets adjusted for inflation. Crown Cork has paid significantly more for asbestos-related claims than the total adjusted value of its predecessor’s assets. In October 2010, the Texas Supreme Court reversed a lower court decision, Barbara Robinson v. Crown Cork & Seal Company, Inc., No. 14-04-00658-CV, Fourteenth Court of Appeals, Texas, which had upheld the dismissal of an asbestos-related case against Crown Cork. The Texas Supreme Court held that the Texas legislation was unconstitutional under the Texas Constitution when applied to asbestos-related claims pending against Crown Cork when the legislation was enacted in June of 2003. The Company believes that the decision of the Texas Supreme Court is limited to retroactive application of the Texas legislation to asbestos-related cases that were pending against Crown Cork in Texas on June 11, 2003 and therefore, in its accrual, continues to assign no value to claims filed after June 11, 2003. In December 2001, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania enacted legislation that limits the asbestos-related liabilities of Pennsylvania corporations that are successors by corporate merger to companies involved with asbestos. The legislation limits the successor’s liability for asbestos to the acquired company’s asset value adjusted for inflation. Crown Cork has paid significantly more for asbestos-related claims than the acquired company’s adjusted asset value. In November 2004, the legislation was amended to address a Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision (Ieropoli v. AC&S Corporation, et. al., No. 117 EM 2002) which held that the statute violated the Pennsylvania Constitution due to retroactive application. The Company cautions that the limitations of the statute, as amended, are subject to litigation and may not be upheld. The Company further cautions that an adverse ruling in any litigation relating to the constitutionality or applicability to Crown Cork of one or more statutes that limits the asbestos-related liability of alleged defendants like Crown Cork could have a material impact on the Company. The Company's approximate claims activity for the years ended 2019, 2018 and 2017 was as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Beginning claims 56,000 55,500 55,500 New claims 2,000 2,000 2,500 Settlements or dismissals (2,000 ) (1,500 ) (2,500 ) Ending claims 56,000 56,000 55,500 The Company's cash payments during the years ended 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 were as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Asbestos-related payments $ 22 $ 21 $ 30 Settled claims payments (included in asbestos-related payments above) 17 15 24 In the fourth quarter of each year, the Company performs an analysis of outstanding claims and categorizes by year of exposure and state filed. As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company's outstanding claims were: 2019 2018 Claimants alleging first exposure after 1964 16,500 16,500 Claimants alleging first exposure before or during 1964 filed in: Texas 13,000 13,000 Pennsylvania 1,500 1,500 Other states that have enacted asbestos legislation 6,000 6,000 Other states 19,000 19,000 Total claims outstanding 56,000 56,000 The outstanding claims in each period exclude approximately 19,000 inactive claims. Due to the passage of time, the Company considers it unlikely that the plaintiffs in these cases will pursue further action against the Company. The exclusion of these inactive claims had no effect on the calculation of the Company’s accrual as the claims were filed in states, as described above, where the Company’s liability is limited by statute. With respect to claimants alleging first exposure to asbestos before or during 1964, the Company does not include in its accrual any amounts for settlements in states where the Company’s liability is limited by statute except for certain pending claims in Texas as described earlier. With respect to post-1964 claims, regardless of the existence of asbestos legislation, the Company does not include in its accrual any amounts for settlement of these claims because of increased difficulty of establishing identification of relevant insulation products as the cause of injury. Given its settlement experience with post-1964 claims, the Company does not believe that an adverse ruling in the Texas or Pennsylvania asbestos litigation cases, or in any other state that has enacted asbestos legislation, would have a material impact on the Company with respect to such claims. As of December 31, the percentage of outstanding claims related to claimants alleging serious diseases (primarily mesothelioma and other malignancies) were as follows: 2019 2018 2017 Total claims 22 % 22 % 22 % Pre-1964 claims in states without asbestos legislation 41 % 41 % 41 % Crown Cork has entered into arrangements with plaintiffs’ counsel in certain jurisdictions with respect to claims which are not yet filed, or asserted, against it. However, Crown Cork expects claims under these arrangements to be filed or asserted against Crown Cork in the future. The projected value of these claims is included in the Company’s estimated liability as of December 31, 2019 . Approximately 81% of the claims outstanding at the end of 2019 were filed by plaintiffs who do not claim a specific amount of damages or claim a minimum amount as established by court rules relating to jurisdiction; approximately 16% were filed by plaintiffs who claim damages of less than $5 ; approximately 3% were filed by plaintiffs who claim damages from $5 to less than $100 ( 34% of whom claim damages less than $25 ) and 13 claims were filed by plaintiffs who claim damages in excess of $100 . As of December 31, 2019 , the Company’s accrual for pending and future asbestos-related claims and related legal costs was $ 273 , including $ 232 for unasserted claims. The Company determines its accrual without limitation to a specified time period. It is reasonably possible that the actual loss could be in excess of the Company’s accrual. However, the Company is unable to estimate the reasonably possible loss in excess of its accrual due to uncertainty in the following assumptions that underlie the Company’s accrual and the possibility of losses in excess of such accrual: the amount of damages sought by the claimant, the Company and claimant’s willingness to negotiate a settlement, the terms of settlements of other defendants with asbestos-related liabilities, the bankruptcy filings of other defendants (which may result in additional claims and higher settlements for non-bankrupt defendants), the nature of pending and future claims (including the seriousness of alleged disease, whether claimants allege first exposure to asbestos before or during 1964 and the claimant’s ability to demonstrate the alleged link to Crown Cork), the volatility of the litigation environment, the defense strategies available to the Company, the level of future claims, the rate of receipt of claims, the jurisdiction in which claims are filed, and the effect of state asbestos legislation (including the validity and applicability of the Pennsylvania legislation to non-Pennsylvania jurisdictions, where the substantial majority of the Company’s asbestos cases are filed).

Commitments and Contingent Liab

Commitments and Contingent Liabilities	12 Months Ended

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities	Commitments and Contingent Liabilities The Company, along with others in most cases, has been identified by the EPA or a comparable state environmental agency as a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) at a number of sites and has recorded aggregate accruals of $8 for its share of estimated future remediation costs at these sites. The Company has been identified as having either directly or indirectly disposed of commercial or industrial waste at the sites subject to the accrual, and where appropriate and supported by available information, generally has agreed to be responsible for a percentage of future remediation costs based on an estimated volume of materials disposed in proportion to the total materials disposed at each site. The Company has not had monetary sanctions imposed nor has the Company been notified of any potential monetary sanctions at any of the sites. The Company has also recorded aggregate accruals of $7 for remediation activities at various worldwide locations that are owned by the Company and for which the Company is not a member of a PRP group. Although the Company believes its accruals are adequate to cover its portion of future remediation costs, there can be no assurance that the ultimate payments will not exceed the amount of the Company’s accruals and will not have a material effect on its results of operations, financial position and cash flow. Any possible loss or range of potential loss that may be incurred in excess of the recorded accruals cannot be estimated. In March 2015, the Bundeskartellamt, or German Federal Cartel Office (“FCO”), conducted unannounced inspections of the premises of several metal packaging manufacturers, including a German subsidiary of the Company. The local court order authorizing the inspection cited FCO suspicions of anti-competitive agreements in the German market for the supply of metal packaging products. The Company conducted an internal investigation into the matter and discovered instances of inappropriate conduct by certain employees of German subsidiaries of the Company. The Company cooperated with the FCO and submitted a leniency application with the FCO which disclosed the findings of its internal investigation to date. In April 2018, the FCO discontinued its national investigation and referred the matter to the European Commission (the “Commission”). Following the referral, Commission officials conducted unannounced inspections of the premises of several metal packaging manufacturers, including Company subsidiaries in Germany, France and the United Kingdom. The Commission's investigation is ongoing and, to date, the Commission has not officially charged the Company or any of its subsidiaries with violations of competition law. The Company is cooperating with the Commission and submitted a leniency application with the Commission with respect to the findings of the investigation in Germany referenced above. This application may lead to the reduction of possible future penalties. At this stage of the investigation the Company believes that a loss is probable but is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of the Commission’s investigation and is unable to estimate the loss or possible range of losses that could be incurred, and has therefore not recorded a charge in connection with the actions by the Commission. If the Commission finds that the Company or any of its subsidiaries violated competition law, fines levied by the Commission could be material to the Company's operating results and cash flows for the periods in which they are resolved or become reasonably estimable. In March 2017, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) at the Port of Milwaukee issued a penalty notification alleging that certain of the Company’s subsidiaries intentionally misclassified the importation of certain goods into the U.S. during the period 2004-2009. CBP initially assessed a penalty of $18 and subsequently mitigated to $6 . The Company has acknowledged to CBP that the goods were misclassified and has paid all related duties. The Company has asserted that the misclassification was unintentional and disputes the penalty assessment. At the present time, based on the information available, the Company does not believe that a loss for the alleged intentional misclassification is probable. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in contesting the assessed penalty. The Company and its subsidiaries are also subject to various other lawsuits and claims with respect to labor, environmental, securities, vendor and other matters arising out of the Company’s normal course of business. While the impact on future financial results is not subject to reasonable estimation because considerable uncertainty exists, management believes that the ultimate liabilities resulting from such lawsuits and claims will not materially affect the Company’s consolidated earnings, financial position or cash flow. The Company has various commitments to purchase materials, supplies and utilities as part of the ordinary conduct of business. The Company’s basic raw materials for its products are steel and aluminum, both of which are purchased from multiple sources. The Company is subject to fluctuations in the cost of these raw materials and has periodically adjusted its selling prices to reflect these movements. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to fully recover any increases or fluctuations in raw material costs from its customers. The Company also has commitments for standby letters of credit and for purchases of capital assets. At December 31, 2019

Retirement Benefits [Abstract]
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits	Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Pensions. The Company sponsors various pension plans covering certain U.S. and non-U.S. employees, and participates in certain multi-employer pension plans. The benefits under the Company plans are based primarily on years of service and either the employees’ remuneration near retirement or a fixed dollar multiple. A measurement date of December 31 was used for all plans presented below. The components of pension expense were as follows: U.S. Plans 2019 2018 2017 Service cost $ 15 $ 17 $ 14 Interest cost 50 47 50 Expected return on plan assets (70 ) (85 ) (83 ) Amortization of actuarial loss 55 51 52 Amortization of prior service cost 1 1 1 Net periodic cost $ 51 $ 31 $ 34 Non-U.S. Plans 2019 2018 2017 Service cost $ 15 $ 26 $ 22 Interest cost 71 75 75 Expected return on plan assets (138 ) (159 ) (146 ) Settlements 44 38 — Curtailments (14 ) — (3 ) Amortization of actuarial loss 38 45 42 Amortization of prior service credit (1 ) (11 ) (11 ) Net periodic cost / (benefit) $ 15 $ 14 $ (21 ) The settlement charges in 2019 and 2018 arose from the payment of lump sum buy-outs to settle certain pension obligations using plan assets. The Company may incur additional settlement charges in 2020. The curtailment gain in 2019 was to recognize prior service credits that were previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in connection with the closure of a non-U.S. defined benefit pension plan. Additional pension expense of $5 was recognized in each of 2019, 2018 and 2017 for multi-employer plans. The projected benefit obligations, accumulated benefit obligations, plan assets and funded status of the Company's U.S. and non-U.S. plans were as follows: U.S. Plans Non-U.S. Plans 2019 2018 2019 2018 Projected Benefit Obligations Benefit obligations at January 1 $ 1,371 $ 1,499 $ 3,102 $ 3,507 Service cost 15 17 15 26 Interest cost 50 47 71 75 Plan participants’ contributions — — 2 4 Amendments (1 ) — — — Settlements — — (152 ) (121 ) Curtailments — — (18 ) — Actuarial loss 133 (83 ) 242 (199 ) Acquisitions — — — 148 Benefits paid (128 ) (109 ) (152 ) (150 ) Foreign currency translation — — 110 (188 ) Benefit obligations at December 31 $ 1,440 $ 1,371 $ 3,220 $ 3,102 Plan Assets Fair value of plan assets at January 1 $ 1,012 $ 1,220 $ 3,264 $ 3,665 Actual return on plan assets 244 (102 ) 373 (39 ) Employer contributions 3 3 19 16 Plan participants’ contributions — — 2 4 Settlements — — (152 ) (121 ) Acquisitions — — — 90 Benefits paid (128 ) (109 ) (152 ) (150 ) Foreign currency translation — — 126 (201 ) Fair value of plan assets at December 31 $ 1,131 $ 1,012 $ 3,480 $ 3,264 Funded status $ (309 ) $ (359 ) $ 260 $ 162 Accumulated benefit obligations at December 31 $ 1,397 $ 1,327 $ 3,182 $ 3,009 Information for pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets was as follows: U.S. Plans 2019 2018 Projected benefit obligations $ 1,440 $ 1,371 Accumulated benefit obligations 1,397 1,327 Fair value of plan assets 1,131 1,012 Non-U.S. Plans 2019 2018 Projected benefit obligations $ 399 $ 363 Accumulated benefit obligations 383 329 Fair value of plan assets 187 167 The Company’s investment strategy in its U.S. plan is designed to generate returns that are consistent with providing benefits to plan participants within the risk tolerance of the plan. Asset allocation is the primary determinant of return levels and investment risk exposure. The assets of the plan are broadly diversified in terms of securities and security types in order to limit the potential of large losses from any one security. The strategic ranges for asset allocation in the U.S. plans are as follows: U.S. equities 39 % to 49 % International equities 12 % to 18 % Fixed income 16 % to 26 % Balanced funds 7 % to 13 % Real estate 7 % to 13 % The Company’s investment strategy in its U.K. plan, the largest non-U.S. plan, is designed to achieve a funding level of 100% within the next 7 years by targeting an expected return of 1.8% annually in excess of the expected growth in the liabilities. The Company seeks to achieve this return with a risk level commensurate with a 5% chance of the funding level falling between 4% and 7% in any one year. The strategic ranges for asset allocation in the U.K. plan are as follows: Investment grade credit 30 % to 90 % Equities 0 % to 30 % Hedge funds 0 % to 10 % Real estate 0 % to 5 % Alternative credit 0 % to 20 % Other 0 % to 20 % Pension assets are classified into three levels. Level 1 asset values are derived from quoted prices which are available in active markets as of the report date. Level 2 asset values are derived from other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the report date. Level 3 asset values are derived from unobservable pricing inputs that are not corroborated by market data or other objective sources. Level 1 Investments Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted prices taken from the primary exchange on which the security trades. Mutual funds are valued at the net asset value (NAV) of shares held at year-end. Level 2 Investments Fixed income securities, including government issued debt, corporate debt, asset-backed and structured debt securities are valued using the latest bid prices or valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and other reference data including market research publications). Derivatives, which consist mainly of interest rate swaps, are valued using a discounted cash flow pricing model based on observable market data. Level 3 Investments Hedge funds and private equity funds are valued at the NAV at year-end. The values assigned to private equity funds are based upon assessments of each underlying investment, incorporating valuations that consider the evaluation of financing and sale transactions with third parties, expected cash flows and market-based information, including comparable transactions, and performance multiples among other factors. Real estate investments are based on third party appraisals. Investments Measured Using NAV per Share Practical Expedient Investments measured using NAV per share as a practical expedient include investment funds that invest in global equity, emerging markets and fixed income. The global equity funds invest in equity securities of various market sectors including industrial materials, consumer discretionary goods and services, financial infrastructure, technology, and health care. The emerging markets funds invest in equity markets within financial services, consumer goods and services, energy, and technology. The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair value. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in different fair value measurements at the reporting date. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The levels assigned to the defined benefit plan assets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 are summarized in the tables below: 2019 U.S. plan assets Non-U.S. plan assets Total Level 1 Cash and cash equivalents $ 23 $ 190 $ 213 Global large cap equity — 7 7 U.S. large cap equity 155 4 159 U.S. mid/small cap equity 218 27 245 Mutual funds – global equity 144 — 144 Mutual funds – U.S. equity 206 — 206 Mutual funds – fixed income 67 — 67 813 228 1,041 Level 2 Government issued debt securities — 260 260 Corporate debt securities 52 332 384 Asset backed securities — 2 2 Structured debt — 811 811 Insurance contracts — 105 105 Derivatives — 194 194 Investment funds – fixed income — 373 373 Investment funds – global equity — 297 297 Investment funds – emerging markets — 33 33 52 2,407 2,459 Level 3 Investment funds – real estate 96 220 316 Hedge funds — 43 43 Private equity 5 70 75 Real estate – direct 21 9 30 122 342 464 Total assets in fair value hierarchy 987 2,977 3,964 Investments measured at NAV Practical Expedient (a) Investment funds – fixed income 102 91 193 Investment funds – global equity 18 78 96 Investment funds – emerging markets 23 — 23 Hedge funds — 328 328 143 497 640 Total investments at fair value $ 1,130 $ 3,474 $ 4,604 2018 U.S. plan assets Non-U.S. plan assets Total Level 1 Cash and cash equivalents $ 34 $ 225 $ 259 Global large cap equity — 27 27 U.S. large cap equity 66 3 69 U.S. mid/small cap equity 182 16 198 Mutual funds – global equity 133 — 133 Mutual funds – U.S. equity 188 — 188 Mutual funds – fixed income 104 — 104 707 271 978 Level 2 Government issued debt securities — 341 341 Corporate debt securities 49 212 261 Asset backed securities — 2 2 Structured debt — 699 699 Insurance contracts — 105 105 Derivatives — 103 103 Investment funds – fixed income — 411 411 Investment funds – global equity — 268 268 49 2,141 2,190 Level 3 Investment funds – real estate 94 196 290 Hedge funds — 113 113 Private equity 9 94 103 Real estate – direct 20 7 27 123 410 533 Total assets in fair value hierarchy 879 2,822 3,701 Investments measured at NAV Practical Expedient (a) Investment funds – fixed income 98 112 210 Investment funds – global equity 14 43 57 Investment funds – emerging markets 20 — 20 Hedge funds — 282 282 132 437 569 Total investments at fair value $ 1,011 $ 3,259 $ 4,270 (a) In accordance with ASU No. 2015-07, certain investments that are measured at fair value using the NAV per share practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy.

The incentives expire at various dates beginning in December 2022. These incentives increased net income attributable to the Company by $17 in 2019 and $14 in both 2018 and 2017. The Company paid taxes of $173 , $177 and $154 in 2019, 2018 and 2017. In 2019, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $36 related to a deferred tax valuation allowance release resulting from an internal reorganization. Additionally, the Company recorded a charge of $15 related to the settlement of a pre-acquisition tax contingency that arose from a transaction that occurred prior to its acquisition of Signode. The Company also recorded a benefit of $9 arising from tax law changes in India. The Tax Act resulted in significant changes from previous tax law, including reduction of the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% , a one-time tax imposed on the unremitted earnings of other non-U.S. subsidiaries (the "transition tax") and a limitation on the tax deduction for interest expense, net of interest income, to 30% of a U.S. corporations adjusted taxable income. As a result of the tax rate reduction, the Company recorded a provisional reduction in net deferred tax assets of $103 as of December 31, 2017 and a corresponding deferred income tax charge. Additionally, as of December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a provisional obligation of $82 for the transition tax, recorded a charge of $25 for the related usage of foreign tax credits and reversed $ 11 of deferred tax liabilities related to cumulative undistributed foreign earnings. The Company finalized the impact of the Tax Act in 2018 and recorded a net benefit of $2 to adjust its provisional amounts. In 2018, the Company recorded a charge of $24 related to local taxes on the distributions of foreign earnings, which were previously asserted to be indefinitely reinvested. As of December 31, 2019 the Company has not provided deferred taxes on approximately $1,300 of earnings in certain non-U.S. subsidiaries because such earnings are indefinitely reinvested in its international operations. Upon distribution of such earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company may be subject to incremental foreign tax. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of foreign tax that might be payable. The components of deferred taxes at December 31 are: 2019 2018 Assets Liabilities Assets Liabilities Tax carryforwards $ 512 $ — $ 531 $ — Postretirement and postemployment benefits 40 — 39 — Pensions 176 124 193 106 Property, plant and equipment 23 174 20 177 Intangible assets — 401 — 431 Asbestos 66 — 71 — Accruals and other 88 90 88 73 Right of use assets — 30 — — Lease liabilities 30 — — — Valuation allowances (243 ) — (282 ) — Total $ 692 $ 819 $ 660 $ 787 Tax carryforwards expire as follows: Year Amount 2020 $ 27 2021 22 2022 82 2023 11 2024 14 Thereafter 211 Unlimited 145 Tax carryforwards expiring in 2022 include $72 of U.S. federal foreign tax credits which based on current projections the Company believes it will utilize before expiration. Tax carryforwards expiring after 2024 include $141 of U.S. state tax loss carryforwards and $53 of Luxembourg tax loss carryforwards. The unlimited category includes $36 related to U.S. disallowed business interest carryforwards and $64 of French tax loss carryforwards. Realization of any portion of the Company’s deferred tax assets is dependent upon the availability of taxable income in the relevant jurisdictions. The Company considers all sources of taxable income, including (i) taxable income in any available carry back period, (ii) the reversal of taxable temporary differences, (iii) tax-planning strategies, and (iv) taxable income expected to be generated in the future other than from reversing temporary differences. The Company also considers whether there have been cumulative losses in recent years. The Company records a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company’s valuation allowances at December 31, 2019 includes $205 primarily related to the portion of U.S. state tax loss carryforwards that the Company does not believe are more likely than not to be utilized prior to their expiration. The Company’s ability to utilize state tax loss carryforwards is impacted by several factors including taxable income, expiration dates, limitations imposed by certain states on the amount of loss carryforwards that can be used in a given year to offset taxable income and whether the state permits the Company to file a combined return. Management’s estimate of the appropriate valuation allowance in any jurisdiction involves a number of assumptions and judgments, including the amount and timing of future taxable income. Should future results differ from management’s estimates, it is possible there could be future adjustments to the valuation allowances that would result in an increase or decrease in tax expense in the period such changes in estimates are made. A reconciliation of unrecognized tax benefits follows: 2019 2018 2017 Balance at January 1 $ 37 $ 29 $ 27 Additions related to acquisitions — 13 — Additions for prior year tax positions 20 1 6 Reductions to prior period tax positions — — (2 ) Lapse of statute of limitations (1 ) (3 ) — Settlements (15 ) (2 ) (4 ) Foreign currency translation — (1 ) 2 Balance at December 31 $ 41 $ 37 $ 29 The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits include potential liabilities related to transfer pricing, foreign withholding taxes, and non-deductibility of expenses and exclude $2 of interest and penalties as of December 31, 2019. The total interest and penalties recorded in income tax expense was less than $1 in 2019, 2018 and 2017. As of December 31, 2019, unrecognized tax benefits of $41 , if recognized, would affect the Company's effective tax rate. The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits are not expected to increase over the next twelve months and are expected to decrease as open tax years lapse or claims are settled. The Company is unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible changes in its unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months as it is unable to predict when, or if, the tax authorities will commence their audits, the time needed for the audits, and the audit findings that will require settlement with the applicable tax authorities, if any.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation The Company’s shareholder-approved stock-based incentive compensation plans provide for the granting of awards in the form of stock options, deferred stock, restricted stock or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). The awards may be subject to the achievement of certain performance goals as determined by the Compensation Committee designated by the Company’s Board of Directors. There have been no awards of SARs. At December 31, 2019 , there were 2.6 million authorized shares available for future awards. Restricted and Deferred Stock Annually, the Company awards shares of restricted stock to certain senior executives in the form of time-vested restricted stock and performance-based shares. The time-vested restricted stock vests ratably over three years . The performance-based share awards are subject to either a market condition or a performance condition. For awards subject to a market condition, the metric is the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”), which includes share price appreciation and dividends paid, during the three -year term of the award measured against the TSR of a peer group of companies. For awards subject to a performance condition, the metric is the Company's average return on invested capital over the three-year term. The performance-based shares cliff vest at the end of three years . The number of performance-based shares that will ultimately vest is based on the level of performance achieved, ranging between 0% and 200% of the shares originally awarded, and is settled in shares of common stock. Participants who terminate employment because of disability, death or, subject to Company approval, retirement, receive accelerated vesting of their time-vested awards to the date of termination. However, restrictions lapse on performance-based awards, if at all, on the original vesting date. The Company also issues shares of time-vesting restricted stock to U.S. employees and deferred stock to non-U.S. employees which vest ratably over three to five years . A summary of restricted and deferred stock activity follows: Number of shares Non-vested shares outstanding at January 1, 2019 2,142,743 Awarded: Time-vesting 406,145 Performance-based 202,876 Released: Time-vesting (387,628 ) Performance-based — Forfeitures: Time-vesting (132,275 ) Performance-based (129,207 ) Non-vested shares outstanding at December 31, 2019 2,102,654 The average grant-date fair value of restricted stock awarded in 2019 , 2018 and 2017 follows: 2019 2018 2017 Time-vested $ 56.06 $ 44.48 $ 55.55 Performance-based 46.08 57.24 51.90 The fair values of the performance-based awards that include a market condition were calculated using a Monte Carlo valuation model and the following weighted average assumptions: 2019 2018 2017 Risk-free interest rate 2.5 % 2.0 % 1.4 % Expected term (years) 3 3 3 Expected stock price volatility 21.4 % 19.9 % 21.1 % At December 31, 2019 , unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding restricted and deferred stock was $67 . The weighted average period over which the expense is expected to be recognized is 2.7 years . The aggregate market value of the shares released on the vesting dates was $26 in 2019.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	12 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Business and Principles of Consolidation	Business and Principles of Consolidation . The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Crown Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and its consolidated subsidiary companies (where the context requires, the “Company” shall include reference to the Company and its consolidated subsidiary companies). The Company is a worldwide leader in the design, manufacture and sale of packaging products and equipment for consumer goods and industrial products. The Company’s packaging for consumer goods include steel and aluminum cans for beverage, food, household and other consumer products, glass bottles for beverage products and metal vacuum closures and steel crowns sold through the Company's sales organization to the soft drink, food, citrus, brewing, household products, personal care and various other industries. The Company's packaging for industrial products includes steel and plastic strap consumables and equipment, paper-based protective packaging, and plastic film consumables and equipment, which are sold into the metals, food and beverage, construction, agricultural, corrugated and general industries. The financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and reflect management’s estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates, impacting reported results of operations and financial position. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In deciding which entities should be reported on a consolidated basis, the Company first determines whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). If an entity is a VIE, the Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary and therefore, should consolidate the VIE. If an entity is not a VIE, the Company consolidates those entities in which it has control, including certain subsidiaries that are not majority-owned. Certain of the Company’s agreements with noncontrolling interests contain provisions in which the Company would surrender certain decision-making rights upon a change in control of the Company. Accordingly, consolidation of these operations may no longer be appropriate subsequent to a change in control of the Company, as defined in the agreements. Investments in companies in which the Company does not have control, but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for by the equity method. Other investments are carried at cost.
Foreign Currency Translation	Foreign Currency Translation . For non-U.S. subsidiaries which operate in a local currency environment, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Income, expense and cash flow items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments for these subsidiaries are accumulated as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in equity. For non-U.S. subsidiaries that use a U.S. dollar functional currency, local currency inventories and property, plant and equipment are translated into U.S. dollars at rates prevailing when acquired; all other assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates. Inventories charged to cost of sales and depreciation are remeasured at historical rates; all other income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Gains and losses which result from remeasurement are included in earnings.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition . On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted new accounting guidance which outlined a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and superseded previous revenue recognition guidance. Under previous guidance, the Company generally recognized revenue from product sales when the goods were shipped and title and risk of loss passed to the customer. Under the new guidance, revenues are recognized when control of the promised product is transferred to customers. The majority of the Company’s revenues from metal packaging products are derived from multi-year requirement contracts with leading manufacturers and marketers of packaged consumer products for can sets, comprising a can and an end. As requirement contracts do not typically include fixed volumes, customers often purchase products pursuant to purchase orders or other communications which are short-term in nature. The can and the end are considered separate performance obligations because they are distinct and separately identifiable. Revenues from the Company's transit packaging segment are generally derived from individual purchase orders which may include multiple goods and services which are separate performance obligations because they are distinct and separately identifiable. The Company manufactures certain products that have no alternative use to the Company once they are printed or manufactured to customer specifications. If the Company has an enforceable right to payment for custom products at all times in the manufacturing process, revenue is recognized over time. In each of the Company’s geographic markets, revenue from beverage cans is primarily recognized over time using the units produced output method as beverage cans are generally printed for a specific customer in a continuous production process. The timing of revenue recognition for the Company’s other products, including beverage ends and three-piece products, which includes food cans and ends and aerosol cans and ends, may vary as these products may be printed or customized depending upon customer preferences which can vary by geographic market. Revenue that is recognized over time for the Company’s three-piece products and equipment business is generally recognized using the cost-to-cost input method as these products involve an intermediary step that results in customized work-in-process inventory. For products that follow a point in time model, revenue is generally recognized when title and risk of loss transfer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Standalone selling prices for each performance obligation are generally stated in the contract. When the Company offers variable consideration in the form of volume rebates to customers, it estimates the most likely amount of revenue to which it is expected to be entitled and includes the estimate in the transaction price, limited to the amount which is probable will not result in reversal of cumulative revenue recognized when the variable consideration is resolved. When the Company offers customers options to purchase additional product at discounted prices, judgment is required to determine if the discounted prices represent material rights. If so, the transaction price allocated to the discount is based on its relative standalone price and is recognized upon purchase of the additional product. Customer payment terms are typically less than one year and as such, the Company has applied the practical expedient to exclude consideration of significant financing components from the determination of transaction price. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from net sales. Shipping and handling fees and costs from product sales are reported as cost of products sold and are accrued when the Company recognizes revenue over time before the shipping and handling activities occur. Costs to obtain a contract are generally immaterial but the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense these costs as incurred if the duration of the contract is one year or less. Unbilled receivables are recorded for revenue recognized over time when the Company has determined that control has passed to the customer but the customer has not yet been invoiced because the Company does not have present right to payment. The Company generally has a present right to payment when title of product transfers. Unbilled receivables are included in receivables in the Consolidated Balance Sheet with a corresponding decrease to inventory. Contract assets are recorded for revenue recognized over time when the Company has determined that control for a performance obligation has passed to the customer, but the right to invoice the customer is contingent upon the completion of the performance obligations included in the contract. Contract assets are classified as current as they are expected to be invoiced within one year and may not exceed their net realizable value. Contract liabilities are established if the Company must defer the recognition of a portion of consideration received because it has to satisfy a future obligation. Contract liabilities are classified as current or noncurrent based on when the Company expects to recognize revenue.
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation . For awards with a service or market condition, compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis using the grant date fair value of the award and the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. For awards with a performance condition, the Company assesses the probability of vesting at each reporting period and adjust compensation cost based on its probability assessment. The Company’s plans provide for stock awards which may include accelerated vesting upon retirement, disability, or death of eligible employees. The Company considers a stock-based award to be vested when the service period is no longer contingent on the employee providing future service. Accordingly, the related compensation cost is recognized immediately for awards granted to retirement-eligible individuals, or over the period from the grant date to the date that retirement eligibility is achieved if less than the stated vesting period.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Restricted Cash	The Company generally classifies any cash that is legally restricted as to withdrawal or usage as restricted cash.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts	Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts . Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable. The allowance is determined based on a review of individual accounts for collectability, generally focusing on those accounts that are past due or experiencing financial difficulties. The current year expense to adjust the allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded within selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Inventory Valuation	Inventory Valuation . Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost principally determined under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) or average cost method.
Property, Plant And Equipment	Property, Plant and Equipment . Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and includes expenditures for new facilities and equipment and those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. Cost of constructed assets includes capitalized interest incurred during the construction and development period. Maintenance and repairs, including labor and material costs for planned major maintenance such as annual production line overhauls, are expensed as incurred. When PP&E is retired or otherwise disposed, the net carrying amount is eliminated with any gain or loss on disposition recognized in earnings at that time. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets described below (in years). The Company periodically reviews the estimated useful lives of its PP&E and, where appropriate, changes are made prospectively. Land improvements 25 Buildings and building improvements 25 – 40 Machinery and equipment 3 – 18
Goodwill and Intangible Assets	Goodwill and Intangible Assets . Assets and liabilities of acquired businesses are recorded under the acquisition method of accounting at their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition. Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying identifiable net assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill is carried at cost and reviewed for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of each year or when facts and circumstances indicate goodwill may be impaired. Goodwill was allocated to the reporting units at the time of each acquisition based on the relative fair values of the reporting units. In assessing goodwill for impairment, the Company may first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Further quantitative assessment may then be required. The quantitative assessment involves a number of assumptions and judgments, including the calculation of fair value for the Company’s identified reporting units. The Company determines the estimated fair value of each reporting unit based on an average of the estimated fair values using an income and a market approach. The income approach utilizes significant assumptions, including revenue and Adjusted EBITDA margin growth rates and discount rate. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, any impairment loss is measured by comparing the carrying value of the reporting unit to its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Definite-lived intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Definite-lived intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives described below (in years). Definite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable from their undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. Customer relationships 11 - 18 Trade names 8 - 27 Technology 6 - 8 Long-term supply contracts 15 Patents 8
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets	Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets . In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived assets, primarily PP&E and certain identifiable intangible assets with finite lives, may be impaired, the Company performs a recoverability evaluation. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying value of an asset is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is measured by comparing the carrying value of the asset to its fair value, based on discounted cash flows. Long-lived assets classified as held for sale are presented in the balance sheet at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less cost to sell.
Leases	Leases. The Company has operating and finance leases for land and buildings related to certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses and corporate offices, vehicle fleets and certain office and manufacturing equipment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company's lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Variable lease payment amounts that cannot be determined at commencement of the lease, such as increases in index rates, are not included in the measurement of the lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets and are recognized in the period those payments are incurred. The Company separates lease and non-lease components of lease arrangements and allocates contract consideration based on standalone selling prices. Variable consideration is allocated to the lease and non-lease components to which the variable payments specifically relates. The discount rate implicit within the Company's leases is often not determinable and therefore the Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of the lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is determined based on lease term and the currency in which lease payments are made. The Company's leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Taxes on Income	Taxes on Income . The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach. Deferred taxes represent the future expected tax consequences of differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities based upon enacted tax rates and laws. The Tax Act created a requirement that certain intangible income of foreign subsidiaries must be included currently in the gross income of the U.S. shareholder. The Company has made an accounting policy election to treat taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to this intangible income as a current period expense when incurred. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. Investment tax credits are accounted for using the deferral method. Income tax-related interest and penalties are reported as income tax expense.
Derivatives and Hedging	Derivatives and Hedging . All outstanding derivative financial instruments are recognized in the balance sheet at their fair values. The impact on earnings from recognizing the fair values of these instruments depends on their intended use, their hedge designation and their effectiveness in offsetting changes in the fair values of the exposures they are hedging. Changes in the fair values of instruments designated to reduce or eliminate adverse fluctuations in the fair values of recognized assets and liabilities are reported currently in earnings along with changes in the fair values of the hedged items. Changes in the effective portions of the fair values of instruments used to reduce or eliminate adverse fluctuations in cash flows of anticipated or forecasted transactions are reported in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income are reclassified to earnings when the related hedged items impact earnings or the anticipated transactions are no longer probable. Changes in the fair values of derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges or do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment are reported currently in earnings. Amounts reported in earnings are classified consistent with the item being hedged. The effectiveness of derivative instruments in reducing risks associated with the hedged exposures is assessed at inception and on an ongoing basis. Time value, a component of an instrument’s fair value, is excluded in assessing effectiveness for fair value hedges, except hedges of firm commitments, and included for cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively when (i) the instrument is no longer effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the underlying hedged item, (ii) the instrument expires, is sold, terminated or exercised, or (iii) designating the instrument as a hedge is no longer appropriate. The Company formally documents all relationships between its hedging instruments and hedged items at inception, including its risk management objective and strategy for establishing various hedge relationships. Cash flows from hedging instruments are classified in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows consistent with the items being hedged.
Treasury Stock	Treasury Stock . Treasury stock is reported at par value. The excess of fair value over par value is first charged to paid-in capital, if any, and then to retained earnings.
Research and Development	Research and Development . Research, development and engineering costs of $55 in 2019, $51 in 2018, and $39 in 2017 were expensed as incurred and reported in selling and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Substantially all engineering and development costs are related to developing new products or designing significant improvements to existing products or processes. Costs primarily include employee salaries and benefits and facility costs.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications of prior years’ data have been made to conform to the current year presentation.
Recent Accounting and Reporting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting and Reporting Pronouncements. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on lease accounting. Under the new guidance, lease classification criteria and income statement recognition are similar to previous guidance; however, all leases with a term longer than one year are recorded on the balance sheet through a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability. The Company adopted the standard on a modified retrospective basis on January 1, 2019. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients, which allowed the Company to carry forward its historical assessments of whether contracts are or contain leases, lease classification and initial direct costs. Adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of operating right-of-use assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities of approximately $220 . Finance leases were already recorded on the balance sheet under the previous guidance in current and long-term maturities of long-term debt. Upon adoption of this standard $5 was reclassified to accrued liabilities and $24 was reclassified to other non-current liabilities. The Company reclassified prior period amounts to conform to the current year presentation. See Note B for further information on the Company's lease arrangements. In February 2018, the FASB issued new accounting guidance to permit the reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive earnings to retained earnings of stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2019 and elected not to reclassify stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments. The new standard introduces an approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. The new approach to estimating credit losses (referred to as the current expected credit losses model) applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in operating leases and off-balance-sheet credit exposures. This guidance is effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard and does not expect the guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance which aligns the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service arrangement (i.e. hosting arrangement) with the guidance on capitalizing costs for internal use software. The Company will adopt this standard on a prospective basis on January 1, 2020 and does not expect the guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. ​ In December 2019, the FASB issued new guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes by, among other things, reducing complexity in the interim-period accounting for year-to-date loss limitations and changes in tax laws. The guidance is effective for the Company on January 1, 2021. The Company does not expect the guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
