Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures Disclosure | Equity Method Investments The Company has various investments accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company records our proportionate share of the net income or loss of each equity method investee, with a corresponding change to the carrying value of the investment. The carrying value of the investment is also adjusted for any dividends received and the effect of foreign exchange. The Company records its proportionate share of net income or loss within the Other operating (income) expense, net line on the consolidated statement of net income. The carrying value of the investments are recorded within the Miscellaneous other assets line on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company’s primary equity method investments include partial ownership in Grand Foods Holding, an entity that operates and manages McDonald's business in mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau, and partial ownership in McDonald’s Japan Holdings Co., Ltd, an entity that operates and manages McDonald’s business in Japan.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value disclosures are reflected in a three-level hierarchy, maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date and are defined as follows: • Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for an identical asset or liability in an active market. • Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for a similar asset or liability in an active market or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. • Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability. There were no significant changes to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value as described in the Company's December 31, 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. At March 31, 2024, the fair value of the Company’s debt obligations was estimated at $35.7 billion, compared to a carrying amount of $37.4 billion. The fair value of debt obligations is based upon quoted market prices, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The carrying amount of cash and equivalents and notes receivable approximate fair value. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities | Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company is exposed to global market risks, including the effect of changes in interest rates and foreign currency fluctuations. The Company uses foreign currency denominated debt and derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of these changes. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for trading purposes. The following table presents the fair values of derivative instruments included on the condensed consolidated balance sheet: Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities In millions Balance Sheet Classification March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Balance Sheet Classification March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Derivatives designated as hedging instruments Foreign currency Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 35 $ 9 Accrued payroll and other liabilities $ (10) $ (37) Interest rate Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ — $ 4 Accrued payroll and other liabilities $ (2) $ (4) Foreign currency Miscellaneous other assets $ 18 $ 2 Other long-term liabilities $ (1) $ (14) Interest rate Miscellaneous other assets $ — $ — Other long-term liabilities $ (62) $ (58) Total derivatives designated as hedging instruments $ 53 $ 15 $ (75) $ (113) Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments Equity Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ — $ — Accrued payroll and other liabilities $ — $ — Foreign currency Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ — $ 6 Accrued payroll and other liabilities $ — $ (5) Equity Miscellaneous other assets $ 180 $ 189 Total derivatives not designated as hedging instruments $ 180 $ 195 $ — $ (5) Total derivatives $ 233 $ 210 $ (75) $ (118) The following table presents the pre-tax amounts from derivative instruments affecting income and AOCI for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively: Location of gain or loss Gain (loss) Gain (loss) Gain (loss) recognized in In millions 2024 2023 2024 2023 2024 2023 Foreign currency Nonoperating income/expense $ 43 $ (9) $ (2) $ 10 Interest rate Interest expense $ 4 $ (2) $ — $ — Cash flow hedges $ 47 $ (11) $ (2) $ 10 Foreign currency denominated debt Nonoperating income/expense $ 349 $ (163) Foreign currency derivatives Nonoperating income/expense $ 37 $ 8 Foreign currency derivatives (1) Interest expense $ 7 $ 6 Net investment hedges $ 386 $ (155) $ — $ 7 $ 6 Foreign currency Nonoperating income/expense $ 1 $ 2 Equity Selling, general & administrative expenses $ (9) $ 16 Undesignated derivatives $ (8) $ 18 (1) The amount of gain (loss) recognized in income related to components excluded from effectiveness testing. Fair Value Hedges The Company enters into fair value hedges to reduce the exposure to changes in fair values of certain liabilities. The Company enters into fair value hedges that convert a portion of its fixed rate debt into floating rate debt by use of interest rate swaps. At March 31, 2024, the carrying amount of fixed-rate debt that was effectively converted was an equivalent notional amount of $1.0 billion, which included a decrease of $64 million of cumulative hedging adjustments. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a $2 million loss on the fair value of interest rate swaps, and a corresponding gain on the fair value of the related hedged debt instrument to interest expense. Cash Flow Hedges The Company enters into cash flow hedges to reduce the exposure to variability in certain expected future cash flows. To protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows (such as royalties denominated in foreign currencies), the Company uses foreign currency forwards to hedge a portion of anticipated exposures. The hedges cover up to the next 18 months for certain exposures and are denominated in various currencies. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had derivatives outstanding with an equivalent notional amount of $1.9 billion that hedged a portion of forecasted foreign currency denominated cash flows. Based on market conditions at March 31, 2024, the $32 million in cumulative cash flow hedging gains, after tax, is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company's earnings over the next 12 months. Net Investment Hedges The Company uses foreign currency denominated debt (third-party and intercompany) and foreign currency derivatives to hedge its investments in certain foreign subsidiaries and affiliates. Realized and unrealized translation adjustments from these hedges are included in shareholders' equity in the foreign currency translation component of Other comprehensive income ("OCI") and offset translation adjustments on the underlying net assets of foreign subsidiaries and affiliates, which also are recorded in OCI. As of March 31, 2024, $13.1 billion of the Company's third-party foreign currency denominated debt, $542 million of the Company's intercompany foreign currency denominated debt and $565 million of foreign currency derivatives were designated to hedge investments in certain foreign subsidiaries and affiliates. Undesignated Derivatives The Company enters into certain derivatives that are not designated for hedge accounting. Therefore, the changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized immediately in earnings together with the gain or loss from the hedged balance sheet position. As an example, the Company enters into equity derivative contracts, including total return swaps, to hedge market-driven changes in certain of its supplemental benefit plan liabilities. The Company may also use certain investments to hedge changes in these liabilities. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives or investments are recorded in Selling, general & administrative expenses together with the changes in the supplemental benefit plan liabilities. In addition, the Company uses foreign currency forwards to mitigate the change in fair value of certain foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. The changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in Nonoperating (income) expense, net, along with the currency gain or loss from the hedged balance sheet position. Credit Risk The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by its derivative counterparties. The Company did not have significant exposure to any individual counterparty at March 31, 2024 and has master agreements that contain netting arrangements. For financial reporting purposes, the Company presents gross derivative balances in its financial statements and supplementary data, including for counterparties subject to netting arrangements. Some of these agreements also require each party to post collateral if credit ratings fall below, or aggregate exposures exceed, certain contractual limits. At March 31, 2024, the Company was required to post $78 million of collateral due to the negative fair value of certain derivative positions. The Company's counterparties were not required to post collateral on any derivative position, other than on certain hedges of the Company’s supplemental benefit plan liabilities where the counterparties were required to post collateral on their liability positions. |
